Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical-Chemical Processes in Fractured Porous Media : Modelling and Benchmarking

Olaf Kolditz, Uwe-Jens Görke, Hua Shao, Wenqing Wang, Sebastian Bauer

The present book provides guidance to understanding complicated coupled processes based on the experimental data available and implementation of developed algorithms in numerical codes. Results of selected test cases in the fields of closed-form solutions (e.g., deformation processes), single processes (such as groundwater flow) as well as coupled processes are presented. It is part of the OpenGeoSys initiative - an open source project to share knowledge and experience in environmental analysis and scientific computation with the community.
