Bibliography: leaves 181-193. In this thesis, commonly used equations governing the flow of fluids are reviewed, from first principles where appropriate. The assumptions that are made in the process are critically assessed and their limitations are discussed. The equations deal with flow through a porous and permeable medium, a single fracture, a network of fractures, and with the coupling of the fracture network and blocks of matrix material. 2014-07-31T08:07:09Z 2014-07-31T08:07:09Z 2002 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4888 eng application/pdf Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
