Porous media play important roles in a wide range of scientific and engineering problems.
Recently, with their increasing application in energy conversion and storage devices, such …

During the last 25 to 30 yr, micromodels have been increasingly used to study the behavior
of fluids inside microstructures in various research areas. Studies have included chemical …

Newly developed high-speed, synchrotron-based X-ray computed microtomography
enabled us to directly image pore-scale displacement events in porous rock in real time …

This third edition offers a comprehensive overview of the latest theories on flow, transport,
and heat-exchange processes in porous media. It also details sophisticated porous media …

This monograph presents, for the first time, a unified and comprehensive introduction to
some of the basic transport properties of porous media, such as electrical and hydraulic …

Capillary pressure plays a central role in the description of water flow in unsaturated soils.
While capillarity is ubiquitous in unsaturated analyses, the theoretical basis and practical …

Current macroscopic theories of two-phase flow in porous media are based on the extended
Darcy's law and an algebraic relationship between capillary pressure and saturation. Both of …

The constitutive relationships required for the parameterization of multiphase flow and
transport problems are of critical importance to hydrologic modeling. Recently, a hypothesis …

To gain insight in relationships among capillary pressure, interfacial area, saturation, and
relative permeability in two-phase flow in porous media, we have developed two types of …

We review the current status of modeling multiphase systems, including balance equation
formulation, constitutive relations for both pressure-saturation-conductivity and interphase …
