A model for acoustic waves in a porous medium is investigated. Due to the use of lighter materials in modern buildings and noise concerns in the environment, such models for poroacoustic waves are of much interest to the building industry. The model has been investigated in some detail by P. M. Jordan. Here we present a rational continuum thermodynamic derivation of the Jordan model. We then present results for the amplitude of an acceleration wave making no approximations whatsoever.

The propagation of acoustic waves in a fluid that saturates a Darcy-type porous medium is considered under finite-amplitude theory. The equation of motion is derived, an acceleration wave analysis is carried out, and a travelling wave solution (TWS) is obtained. In addition, analytical findings are supported with numerical work generated by a simple, but effective, finite-difference scheme and results obtained are compared with those of the nonporous and linear cases. Most notably, this analysis reveals the following: (i) that the equation of motion is a new, hyperbolic form of Kuznetsov's equation; (ii) that finite-time blow-up of the wave amplitude is possible even if dissipation is present; (iii) the presence of a porous medium increases, with respect to the nonporous case, the rate at which amplitude growth/decay occurs; (iv) in the case of porous media propagation, not all compressive acceleration waves suffer blow up; and (v) that there exists a connection between acceleration waves and TWSs.

The paper is devoted to a theoretical investigation of wave processes in moist porous media saturated with gas. Interfacial forces of interaction, heat exchange between the skeleton of a porous medium, liquid and gas, mass transfer between a liquid and a gas; material of the skeleton of a porous medium is considered viscoelastic, the liquid covers the inner surface of the pores of the medium with a thin uniform layer. The propagation of acoustic waves is considered in the two-velocity approximation. A common system is recorded equations and physical relationships describing the propagation of acoustic waves in a wet porous medium. A dispersion relation is obtained. Influence of heat transfer between phases on propagation ”Fast“ and ”slow“ waves is taken into account on the basis of the heat conduction equation.

The paper considers the processes of reflection and transmission acoustic waves at the interface between two porous media, saturated liquid or gas. The cases of a porous medium whose layers have the same porosity, but are saturated with different fluids. Based The dispersion relation and the conditions at the interface between the media are obtained reflection and transmission coefficients. The possibility determination of the parameters of the porous material and its saturating fluid based on the signal reflected from the interface.

Rational Extended Thermodynamics theories with different number of moments are usually introduced to study non-equilibrium phenomena in rarefied gases. Here, we use them to describe one-dimensional acceleration waves in a rarefied monatomic gas. In particular, we focus on the degeneracy of the acceleration wave to a shock wave, in order to test the validity of the models and the role played by an increasing number of moments. As a byproduct, some peculiarities of the characteristic velocities at equilibrium are analyzed as well.
