Preface on physicochemical and electromechanical interactions in porous media

Research output: Contribution to journalEditorial

Abstract

The focus of science and engineering shifts towards smaller length scales. Porous media mechanics has a vital role to play in the translation of microstructural data into macroscopic models of multicomponent systems. As the length scales shrink, more fundamental levels of understanding of natural laws, cause the boundaries between disciplines to blur. In particular, geosciences, polymer sciences and biosciences find a common ground of interest in high specific surface mixtures.
