摘要

Macroscopic constitutive equations for thermoelastic processes in a fluid-saturated porous medium are re-derived using the notion of eigenstrain or, equivalently, eigenstress. The eigenstrain-stress approach is frequently used in micromechanics of solid multi-phase materials, such as composites. Simple derivations of the stress-strain constitutive relations and the void occupancy relationship are presented for both fully saturated and partially saturated porous media. Governing coupled equations for the displacement components and the fluid pressure are also obtained.
