Finite Poroelasticity with Surface Effect

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents a consistent theoretical framework for describing the finite poroelasticity with surface effect. The underlying concept of additional pressure that is thought of as an equivalent thermodynamic pressure applying on the pore surface is used to detail the pore pressure. A nonlinear porosity laws is proposed for the finite deformation of porous material. With surface effect consideration, the corresponding constitutive equations are developed. The present model for both the swelling of the matrix and the permeability change of coal induced by adsorption of CO2 and CH4 are presented under different pressure conditions. It is shown that the predictions from the model are good agreement with the experimental data of sorption-induced deformation of coals.
