GLOBAL ASYMPTOTICS OF THE FILTRATION PROBLEM IN A POROUS MEDIUM

Abstract

Filtration of the suspension in a porous medium is important when strengthening the soil and creating watertight partitions for the constructi on of tunnels and underground structures. A model of deep bed filtration with variable porosity and fractional flow, and a size-exclusion mechanism of particle retention are considered. A global asymptotic solution is constructed in the entire domain in which the filtering process takes place. The obtained asymptotics is close to the numerical solution.
