Influence of the temperature on the behavior of unsaturated porous media: A micromechanical approach

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The homogenization method is used to investigate temperature effects on the water content-capillary pressure curve and the poro-mechanical behavior of unsaturated porous media. Several micromechanical models are proposed in order to highlight the influence of the deformability of the solid phase on the macroscopic behavior.
