Porous materials are ubiquitous, from biological tissues (skin, cartilage, bones, heart tissue), to manufactured materials (paper, functional porous materials, batteries, drug delivery systems, diapers), to environmental materials (rocks, soils, plants). Because these materials are composed of multiple phases, the effects of flow, heat transfer, chemical reactions, and deformations including swelling and shrinking are more complex than that for a single phase such as a gas, liquid, or solid. The realization that porous materials, regardless of the application, have commonalities in modeling approaches, experimental methods, and numerical methods was the impetus of this journal, Transport in Porous Media (founded by Jacob Bear in 1986) and of the International Society for Porous Media (InterPore, interpore.org), which at its roots, originated in 2006. The growth of TIPM and of InterPore mirrors the explosive interest in porous media research that is now recognized as a field of research in and of itself. It is in the honor of InterPore’s 10th anniversary, celebrated at the InterPore 10th Annual Meeting and Jubilee in 2018 in New Orleans, USA, that this special issue was conceived.
