Abstract

Hydro-mechanical processes in porous media are phenomena that occurs at different length and time scales. This thesis presents a multiscale approach to model these phenomena with continuum approaches. On the pore scale, effective transport properties, e.g. the intrinsic permeability or the tortuosity, are numerically calculated. Further, on a Darcy or reservoir scale, the results of the Direct Numerical Simulations on the pore scale are applied to hydro-mechanically coupled (consolidation) problems and fluid-filled fractures.
