Detailed Description

Material designed to provide the permeability tensor which is calculated from porosity using the equation: permeability = k_ijk * k, with k = BB * exp(AA * phi) where k_ijk is a tensor providing the anisotropy, phi is porosity, and A and B are empirical constants.

The user can provide input for the equation expressed in any of the following 3 forms: log k = A * phi + B ln k = A * phi + B k = B * exp(A * phi) A and B are then converted to AA and BB.
