Abstract
We review the current status of modeling multiphase systems, including balance equation formulation, constitutive relations for both pressur e-saturation-conductivity and interphase mass transfer, and stochastic and computational issues. We discuss weaknesses and inconsistencies o f current approaches based on theoretical, computational, and experime ntal evidence. Where possible, we suggest new or evolving approaches.
