Abstract
When subjected to a mechanical loading, the solid phase of a saturated porous medium undergoes a dissolution due to strain-stress concentration effects along the fluid-solid interface. Through a micromechanical analysis, the mechanical affinity is shown to be the driving force of the local dissolution. For cracked porous media, the elastic free energy is a dominant component of this driving force. This allows to predict dissolution-induced creep in such materials.
