Abstract
In this attractive paper (Battiato et al. in Transp Porous Media, 2019), the authors review different methods of upscaling heterogeneous media descriptions to continuous macroscopic equivalent descriptions. I would like to introduce some comments to complete the presentation of the homogenisation theory in Section 7.
