Flow and Diffusion of Gases in Porous Media
TL;DR: A generalized treatment of gas transport in porous media is presented as developed on the basis of the ''dusty gas'' model, a model in which a porous medium is described as consisting of uniformly distributed, giant molecules (dust) held stationary in space as mentioned in this paper.

Gaseous Diffusion in Porous Media. II. Effect of Pressure Gradients
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the diffusion of gases in porous media at uniform pressure is extended to allow for pressure gradients, where the porous medium is visualized as a collection of ''dust'' particles constrained to remain stationary in space.
