The simulation is performed at a pore-scale, in order to properly capture the crack phenomenon and its development along the structure. The response of the porous structure is then evaluated representing the geometry of the medium through an equivalent capillary model.

Abstract
The simulation is performed at a pore-scale, in order to properly capture the crack phenomenon and its development along the structure. The response of the porous structure is then evaluated representing the geometry of the medium through an equivalent capillary model. The efficacy of this configuration is validated through the results obtained from the simulations; ultimately, a basic failure criterion based on the assumptions made is proposed.File in questo prodotto:
