Mechanics of Liquid Transport and Swelling in Porous Media
The mechanics of liquid transport in porous cellulose foam and in a dense random packing of glass spheres are studied in this thesis. Specifically, the capillary and diffusion mechanisms are investigated by critical experiments, and appropriate theoretical models are developed for both porous …

Moisture transport and fixation in porous materials at high moisture levels
… the specimens before testing, namely capillary and vacuum saturation. It also examines the effect of different beddings between the specimen and the ceramic plate. Sorption properties, i.e. information about how much water a porous material holds in different environments, are of …
