Abstract
The theory of homogenization of differential equations has become an open field of research in several areas of the exact sciences and has proved to be a powerful tool for understanding the global behavior of heterogeneous materials. Despite knowing that the deduction of Darcy’s law through the Navier-Stokes equations has been debated for decades, many questions remain open, mainly regarding more complex boundary conditions, cases involving multiphase flows and the numerical homogenization techniques. It is known today that Darcy’s law is presented in the form of a linear relationship only for a range of hydraulic gradient and that this range overlaps the range of laminar flow through soil voids. Therefore, it is proposed in this work to understand the loss of linearity in Darcy’s law, based on the theory of homogenization, modifying and exploring the limit results obtained by Allaire in 1991.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
