Eqs. 10-170 and 173 were applied at different times and the data were
plotted in Figure 10-16. As shown in Figure 10-16, virtually the same
results were obtained for different injection velocities of u = 0.5 and
1.0 cm/s.
The E and G parameter values were determined as a function of the
length of porous media by nonlinear regression of Eq. 10-92 to the data
given in Figure 10-16. Plot of E and G vs. the length are given in Figure
10-17. Exponential regressions of these data indicate that E = 0.14 and
G = 5.3 as the length approaches zero, although the data are of low
