Abstract In this paper porous media will be considered from the view-point of soil mechanics. Within this framework porous media are particulate materials consisting of grains or flat particles. In soil mechanics two main groups of soils are considered, sands consisting of grains and clays consisting of flat particles. Anyhow, in this paper all particles will be referred to as grains. Contrary to a widespread opinion, recent experimental work in Karlsruhe points to the fact that no fundamental difference exists between the mechanical behaviour of sands and normally consolidated clays [1] The voids between the grains can be fully or partly saturated with water or any other fluid.
