Das vorliegende Buch wendet sich an Studierende der Physik und der Ingenieurwissenschaften. Aufbauend auf den klassischen Problemstellungen der Hydrodynamik stellt es, über eine detaillierte Analyse hydrodynamischer Instabilitäten, die Verbindung zu dem weiten Themenkreis der makroskopischen Strukturen her. Es kann somit sowohl als ein Lehrbuch der Hydrodynamik als auch als Einstieg in die faszinierende Welt der Musterbildung Verwendung finden. Viele aus Computerrechnungen erhaltene Grafiken sollen das Thema veranschaulichen und das Verständnis erleichtern.

This book describes several tractable theories for fluid flow in porous media while the important mathematical questions about structural stability and spatial decay are addressed. Thermal convection and stability of other flows in porous media are covered and a chapter is devoted to the problem of stability of flow in a fluid overlying a porous layer. Nonlinear wave motion in porous media is analysed, and waves in an elastic body with voids are investigated. Acoustic waves in porous media are also analysed in some detail. A chapter is included on efficient numerical methods for solving eigenvalue problems which occur in stability problems for flows in porous media. Brian Straughan is a professor at the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Durham University, United Kingdom.

The present monograph presents, for the first time, a unified and comprehensive introduction to some of the basic transport properties of porous media, such as electrical and hydraulic conductivity, air permeability and diffusion. The treatment is based on critical path analysis and the scaling of transport properties which are individually described as functions of saturation. At the same time, the book supplies a tutorial on percolation theory for hydrologists, providing them with the tools for solving actual problems. In turn, a separate chapter serves to introduce physicists to some of the language and complications of groundwater hydrology necessary for successful modelling.
