We construct examples of solutions to the incompressible porous media (IPM) equation that must exhibit infinite in time growth of derivatives provided they remain smooth. As an application, this allows us to obtain nonlinear instability for a class of stratified steady states of IPM.

We construct examples of solutions to the conservative surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation that must either exhibit infinite in time growth of derivatives or blow up in finite time.
Many parts of biological organisms are comprised of deformable porous media. The biological media is both pliable enough to deform in response to an outside force and can deform by itself using the work of an embedded muscle. For example, the recent work (Ludeman et al., 2014) has demonstrated interesting sneezing dynamics of a freshwater sponge, when the sponge contracts and expands to clear itself from surrounding polluted water. We derive the equations of motion for the dynamics of such an active porous media (i.e., a deformable porous media that is capable of applying a force to itself with internal muscles), filled with an incompressible fluid. These equations of motion extend the earlier derived equation for a passive porous media filled with an incompressible fluid. We use a variational approach with a Lagrangian written as the sum of terms representing the kinetic and potential energy of the elastic matrix, and the kinetic energy of the fluid, coupled through the constraint of incompressibility. We then proceed to extend this theory by computing the case when both the active porous media and the fluid are incompressible, with the porous media still being deformable, which is often the case for biological applications. For the particular case of a uniform initial state, we rewrite the equations of motion in terms of two coupled telegraph-like equations for the material (Lagrangian) particles expressed in the Eulerian frame of reference, particularly suitable for numerical simulations, formulated for both the compressible media/incompressible fluid case and the doubly incompressible case. We derive interesting conservation laws for the motion, perform numerical simulations in both cases and show the possibility of self-propulsion of a biological organism due to particular running wave-like application of the muscle stress.
In porous media, there are three known regimes of fluid flows, namely, pre-Darcy, Darcy and post-Darcy. Because of their different natures, these are usually treated separately in literature. To study complex flows when all three regimes may be prese nt in different portions of a same domain, we use a single equation of motion to unify them. Several scenarios and models are then considered for slightly compressible fluids. A nonlinear parabolic equation for the pressure is derived, which is degenerate when the pressure gradient is either small or large. We estimate the pressure and its gradient for all time in terms of initial and boundary data. We also obtain their particular bounds for large time which depend on the asymptotic behavior of the boundary data but not on the initial one. Moreover, the continuous dependence of the solutions on initial and boundary data, and the structural stability for the equation are established.

We study an imbibition problem for porous media. When a wetted layer is above a dry medium, gravity leads to the propagation of the water downwards into the medium. In experiments, the occurrence of fingers was observed, a phenomenon that can be desc ribed with models that include hysteresis. In the present paper, we describe a single finger in a moving frame and set up a free boundary problem to describe the shape and the motion of one finger that propagates with a constant speed. We show the existence of solutions to the travelling wave problem and investigate the system numerically.
In this work, we analyze the flow filtration process of slightly compressible fluids in porous media containing man made fractures with complex geometries. We model the coupled fracture-porous media system where the linear Darcy flow is considered in porous media and the nonlinear Forchheimer equation is used inside the fracture. We develop a model to examine the flow inside fractures with complex geometries and variable thickness, on a Riemannian manifold. The fracture is represented as the normal variation of a surface immersed in $mathbb{R}^3$. Using operators of Laplace Beltrami type and geometric identities, we model an equation that describes the flow in the fracture. A reduced model is obtained as a low dimensional BVP. We then couple the model with the porous media. Theoretical and numerical analysis have been performed to compare the solutions between the original geometric model and the reduced model in reservoirs containing fractures with complex geometries. We prove that the two solutions are close, and therefore, the reduced model can be effectively used in large scale simulators for long and thin fractures with complicated geometry.
