Abstract

The research methodology for anisotropic permeability of geomaterials due to nonuniform stress state is theoretically justified and tested on a laboratory scale. The poroperm properties of fine grain sand and cryogel are investigated in diametral compression tests of cylindrical specimens with a center hole. The time-independent flow rate is measured in various areas of side surfaces of the specimens. The inverse coefficient problem on empirical permeability–effective stress relationship is formulated, and its solvability is demonstrated.
