4.8.2.3 Holmes-Mow

The material type for Holmes-Mow permeability is “perm-Holmes-Mow”. The following material parameters need to be defined:
<perm> isotropic hydraulic permeability in the reference state [L /F t]
<M> exponential strain-dependence coefficient ( ) [ ]
<alpha> power-law exponent ( ) [ ]
This isotropic material is similar to the constant isotropic permeability material described above, except that it uses a strain-dependent permeability tensor [32]: where, and is the Jacobian of the deformation, i.e. where is the deformation gradient.
Example:
This example defines a permeability material of the Holmes-Mow type.
<permeability type="perm-Holmes-Mow">
  <perm>0.001</perm>
  <M>1.5</M>
  <alpha>2</alpha>
</permeability>
