TLDR
In this article, the basic equations of motion for porous media were established by Biot and despite many subsequent re-derivations, are, with minor modifications, relevant today, however, some changes of variables and approximations are on occasion useful, and their relative efficiency of solution in the numerical context is discussed.
Abstract
The basic equations of motion for porous media were established by Biot and despite many subsequent rederivations, are, with minor modifications, relevant today. However, some changes of variables and approximations are on occasion useful, and this paper discusses the alternative forms available and their relative efficiency of solution in the numerical context. Here penaity methods prove once again useful. The paper is illustrated with examples covering phenomena of different periods ranging froms hock excitation to slow consolidation which are treated in a single unified program.

Trends in large-deformation analysis of landslide mass movements with particular emphasis on the material point method

TL;DR: In this article, two approaches to model soil-pore fluid coupling in large-deformation analysis using the material point method (MPM) are introduced; one on a model levee failure and the other on a natural cut slope failure (the Selborne experiment conducted by Cooper and co-workers in 1998).
