Physical processes of compaction companion report 1 to simulation of geothermal subsidence
There are a variety of theories, techniques, and parameters in the subsidence literature. Biot's theory, Terzaghi's theory, and the theory of interacting continua (TINC) are used to explain solid-fluid interaction; stress-strain theories range from linear elastic to e-log p to plasticity and pore-collapse theories. Parameters are numerous: void ratio,, permeability, compaction coefficient, pore compressibility, Young's modulus, bulk modulus, shear modulus, Poisson's ratio, Lame coefficients, coefficient of consolidation, and storage coefficient. The physical processes which govern compaction and deformation in geothermal systems are reviewed. The review is an attempt to provide a reasonably coherent general structure for the theories and parameters which were referred to above. The materials presented is a compendium of existing published work.
