Evolving Porous Media - Mechanism, Experiments, Application

Rock and soil mass are recognized as a kind of porous medium. Under the single or combined action of stress, heat, percolation, chemistry and biology, the porous medium of rock and soil mass will undergo qualitative and quantitative changes. This kind of problem is called Evolving Porous Media”〔JournalTransport in porous media2015. This report focuses on the problem and evolving mechanism of the problem of evolving porous media, and some results and scientific law, developed the new experimental equipment to study this kind of problem. The evolution mechanism and law of porous media and the key technical principles of engineering reform are introduced in combination with geothermal development of hot dry rock and gas hydrate mining.
