This e-book comprises an outline of the main correct medical contributions of Gerard de Josselin de Jong to the improvement of either Soil Mechanics and delivery in Porous Media. the amount includes a variety of papers by means of de Josselin de Jong as they have been released within the overseas medical literature. additionally, a few unpublished, yet hugely appropriate paintings has been integrated. many of the papers by means of de Josselin de Jong are fascinated with concerns on the topic of soil mechanics. this isn't stunning, on the grounds that he labored at Delft Soil Mechanics Laboratory and given the character of his chair at Delft college of know-how. yet sometimes he made an expedition to the realm of move and shipping in porous media. It characterizes his ingenuity that almost all of those tours ended in papers which are now classics within the box. The editors have selected to divide his key courses right into a crew dedicated to soil mechanics and a gaggle dedicated to circulation and delivery in porous media. the chosen papers have been released within the interval 1950-1990. They in actual fact show the advance of principles and the profound contributions of de Josselin de Jong. each one paper is a jewel by itself. He has an incredibly unique approach of reasoning and he illustrated elaborate suggestions and mechanisms using his recognized hand-made drawings. specifically younger scientists will take pleasure in interpreting those papers simply because vital elements of modern day porous media examine locate their roots in them, and since many questions raised by way of de Josselin de Jong are nonetheless open and topic to present investigations.
