porefluiddriven
Porefluiddriven is a term used to describe processes and phenomena in which the dynamics of fluids contained in the pore spaces of a solid matrix control or drive mechanical response, transport, or chemical evolution. It emphasizes the coupled interaction between pore fluid pressure and the solid phase, rather than fluid flow in free space.
In porous media, fluid movement is commonly described by Darcy's law, linking flow rate to pressure gradients
The concept is central in geoscience and engineering. In geology and hydrology, porefluiddriven processes control aquifer
Mathematically, porefluiddriven behavior is modeled with poroelasticity or poromechanics frameworks, such as Biot's theory, which couples
