Permeability Models for Magma Flow through the Earth's Mantle: A Lie Group Analysis
The migration of melt through the mantle of the Earth is governed by a third-order nonlinear partial differential equation for the voidage or volume fraction of melt. The partial differential equation depends on the permeability of the medium which is assumed to be a function of the voidage. It is s...
