We propose in this work to construct, by periodic homogenization, macroscopic models of moisture transfer in unsaturated porous media. To do this, the liquid water and...

We investigated dispersion in homogeneous porous media (grain packs) by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements and random walk simulations in pore networks. We...

Currently, river and lake sediments are contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), to varying degrees of severity. PCBs are persistent micropollutants in the...

This thesis work objective is the development of a hydro-mechanical constitutive model which accounts for damage-plasticity couplings in unsaturated geomaterials. The...
