    Notes: The Laplace equation can be solved in any two- and three-dimensional porous medium by means of a vectorized numerical code. It is applied to several structures such as random media derived from site percolation; close to the percolation threshold, the critical exponents are found to be very close to the ones corresponding to networks; the results are usefully compared to previous variational upper bounds and to the prediction of an approximate space renormalization. Media with double porosity such as catalyst pellets are also addressed. Finally the conductivity of most fractals is shown to follow an Archie's law in the limit of large generation numbers; the exponents of the power laws can be retrieved by various renormalization arguments.

    Notes: In homogeneous porous media, the analytical expression of the dispersion tensor D* can be calculated by the method of moments and by a multiple scale expansion; the symmetric component of this tensor is identical in both cases. Numerically, D* can be computed by two methods, namely the B equation and random walks. The porous media are modeled as being spatially periodic; D* is determined as a function of the Péclet number for four types of unit cells: deterministic, fractal, random, and reconstructed. A systematic comparison is made with existing numerical and experimental data. The long time behavior, and its Gaussian limit, is documented.

    Notes: Expressions for the two microstructural parameters that appear in the variational third-order bounds [G. W. Milton, Phys. Rev. Lett. 46, 542 (1981)] for the effective conductivity and elastic moduli of composite media are derived analytically to first order in the sphere concentration c for random well-mixed dispersions of impenetrable spheres with an arbitrary size distribution. These relations lead to rigorous bounds on the effective properties which are exactly valid to order c2 for such models. The apparent linear behavior of the microstructural parameters up to moderately high c enables one to apply the bounds beyond second-order in c, however. Employing these results, the effect of polydispersivity on the effective properties is examined. It is worth noting that, under some conditions, polydispersivity can actually lead to a slight decrease of the shear modulus, whereas, for highly conducting particles, polydispersivity always increases the effective conductivity.

    Notes: Abstract The velocity field generated by thermal convection in a model porous medium is experimentally determined by means of both PIV and LDA techniques. Details of matching refraction index under non isothermal conditions are given. Fields are measured in the empty parallelepipedic cell and in a model medium made of parallel circular bundles. Results are in good agreement. Moreover, by an averaging technique, we are able to measure seeping velocity profiles.

    Notes: Abstract The macroscopic conductivity of fractures is determined for Gaussian and self-affine fractures by solving the three-dimensional Laplace equation. Results are discussed and compared with various analytical or two-dimensional approximations. They are shown to be in good agreement with some existing experimental data.

    Notes: Abstract The transport properties of continuous deterministic fractals are reviewed. The method of construction, the fractal dimension, and the major features of transport are summarized. Then the major single-phase transports are addressed; attention is focused on the numerical results and on the analytical arguments which may be used to derive these results in a simple way, whenever it is possible.

    Notes: Velocity measurements near porous media are performed by particle image velocimetry. Fully established laminar flows along flat media are studied and compared with the predictions of classical models. Five types of porous media are investigated. Two-dimensional pictures of the flow, average velocities, and local fluctuations are discussed.

    Notes: Pulsed magnetic field gradient stimulated echo NMR measurements are performed for diffusion and flow of an aqueous phase both within a sample of packed spherical beads and within a 25% porosity Fontainebleau sandstone. The stimulated echo dependence on the gradient pulse area q is used to derive the displacement probability distributions PΔ(X) for fixed observation times Δ. The shape of PΔ(X) as a function of Δ is simulated for computer-generated porous media, and a good agreement is obtained between the experimental NMR data and the simulations.
