Biot Poroelasticity

The Biot Poroelasticity example two-way couples Darcy's law and the plane strain application modes to assess deformation of porous media that results from fluid withdrawals.

The model builds on top of the Terzaghi Compaction example. Results from Terzaghi compaction and Biot poroelasticity analyses are compared to each other and are a good match to published analyses.
