Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids addresses the mechanics and physics of deformable porous materials whose porous space is filled by one or several fluid mixtures interacting with the solid matrix. Coussy uses the language of thermodynamics to frame the discussion of this topic and bridge the gap between physicists and engineers, and organises the material in such a way that individual phases are explored, followed by coupled problems of increasing complexity. This structure allows the reader to build a solid understanding of the physical processes occurring in the fluids and then porous solids.

Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids offers a critical reference on the physics of multiphase porous materials - key reading for engineers and researchers in structural and material engineering, concrete, wood and materials science, rock and soil mechanics, mining and oil prospecting, biomechanics.

Professor Olivier Coussy, Université Paris-Est, France
Professor Coussy is currently head of the Navier Research Unit at Université Paris-Est, a joint research unit between Ecole des Ponts and Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussées. He has authored more than eighty scientific papers, as well as five books. He has co-authored 'Mechanics and Durability of Solids' with Franz-Josef Ulm, with volume 1 published in 2002 and volume 2 due to be published June 2008, both with Prentice Hall. He has also written previously for Wiley, 'Mechanics of Porous Continua' (1995) and the updated second edition of this title, 'oromechanics' in 2003.
