Our first text on this subject 'The Finite Element Method in the Deformation and Consolidation of Porous Media', was published ten years ago and has been out of print for much of the past decade. It was the first book of its kind, despite the many available texts on groundwater flow through deforming porous media. The topic has been covered, albeit briefly, in many texts on geomechanics, petroleum engineering and finite element methods. However, there still exists no other book which covers all the mechanical and numerical aspects of flow in porous media in such detail.
In the intervening period there was a rapid expansion in the research and practical applications of these types of problem, which has prompted us to write this new and thoroughly updated version. It contains not only the results of research carried out at our two institutions but also reports on the work done under various European research programmes, e.g. Science (Greco Geomateriaux), TEMPUS PHARE (with the Technical University of Lodz and the Polish Academy of Sciences IPPT-PAN), and in particular Human Capital and Mobility, where an Alliance of Laboratories in Europe for Research and Technology (ALERT) was created, concentrating on research in geomaterials (soil, rock and concrete). Both our institutions were partners in this network, and the scientific exchanges proved to be extremely fruitful. Also, collaborative work carried out with the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute, under the BRINORD agreement, contributed to a better understanding of petroleum reservoir subsidence.
