During this average reference of the sector, theoretical and experimental ways to circulate, hydrodynamic dispersion, and miscible displacements in porous media and fractured rock are thought of. assorted methods are mentioned and contrasted with one another. the 1st procedure is predicated at the classical equations of circulation and shipping, referred to as 'continuum models'. the second one method relies on glossy tools of statistical physics of disordered media; that's, on 'discrete models', that have turn into more and more well known during the last 15 years. The publication is exclusive in its scope, considering that (1) there's at the moment no booklet that compares the 2 ways, and covers all vital facets of porous media difficulties; and (2) contains dialogue of fractured rocks, which to date has been taken care of as a separate subject.
parts of the booklet will be compatible for a complicated undergraduate path. The publication should be excellent for graduate classes at the topic, and will be utilized by chemical, petroleum, civil, environmental engineers, and geologists, in addition to physicists, utilized physicist and allied scientists that take care of a number of porous media difficulties.
