Strains and Stresses Induced by Water Transport in Hygroscopic Elastic Media

  • Chapter
Novel Approaches in Civil Engineering

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics ((LNACM,volume 14))

Abstract

We propose to analyse the phenomenological equation of water transport in a biconstituent medium with stresses. The work is limited to the case of elastic, isotropic behaviour and an isothermal transfer process.
