TLDR
A survey of theories of immiscible mixtures can be found in this article, where it is emphasized that the immiscibility of such mixtures has important consequences concerning the forms of the constitutive equations, and that it can also result in the mixtures exhibiting microstructural effects.

Parallelization of MFIX: A Multiphase CFD Code for Modeling Fluidized Beds.

TL;DR: The effort and experience in generating a hybrid parallel version of MFIX (Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges), a code for modeling reactive multiphase flow in fluidized beds, using portable OpenMP and MPI in a unified source code is described.

Flow of shear-thinning fluids through porous media

TL;DR: In this article, a Carreau fluid in an idealized porous medium geometry is investigated on the basis of adjoint homogenization theory for the Carreau tensor and it is shown that the more we depart from Newtonian conditions, the more the effective viscosity in Darcy's law is poor approximation, for the effective permeability tensor becomes strongly anisotropic.

Elastic Waves in Swelling Porous Media

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed Eringen's theory of swelling porous media and showed that there exist three dilatational and two shear waves propagating with distinct velocities.

Reexamining some basic definitions of modern mixture theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a new expression for mixture velocity based on volume fractions as opposed to dispersed densities was proposed to model the kinematics of saturated two-phase elastic mixtures, which leads to simpler and less forced expressions for mixture variables such as stress, internal energy, heat flux, etc.

A review of presentations and discussions of the workshop Computational mechanics of generalized continua and applications to materials with microstructure that was held in Catania 29–31 October 2015:

TL;DR: A report on the workshop Computational mechanics of generalized continua and applications to materials with microstructure (Catania 29-31 October 2015) is provided in this paper, which brought together experts within the CNRS International Associate Laboratory (LIA) Francois Cosserat-Tullio Levi Civita Coss & Vita in order to discuss topics of common interest.

A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism

TL;DR: The most influential nineteenth-century scientist for twentieth-century physics, James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) demonstrated that electricity, magnetism and light are all manifestations of the same phenomenon: the electromagnetic field as discussed by the authors.

General Theory of Three‐Dimensional Consolidation

TL;DR: In this article, the number of physical constants necessary to determine the properties of the soil is derived along with the general equations for the prediction of settlements and stresses in three-dimensional problems.

Theory of Propagation of Elastic Waves in a Fluid‐Saturated Porous Solid. I. Low‐Frequency Range

TL;DR: In this article, a theory for the propagation of stress waves in a porous elastic solid containing compressible viscous fluid is developed for the lower frequency range where the assumption of Poiseuille flow is valid.

Theory of Propagation of Elastic Waves in a Fluid-Saturated Porous Solid. II. Higher Frequency Range

TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of propagation of stress waves in a porous elastic solid developed in Part I for the low-frequency range is extended to higher frequencies, and the breakdown of Poiseuille flow beyond the critical frequency is discussed for pores of flat and circular shapes.
