Nanoporous materials provide high surface area per unit mass and are capable of fluids adsorption. While the measurements of overall amount of fluid adsorbed by a nanoporous sample are straightforward, probing the spatial distribution of fluids is non-trivial. For macro-porous media the effect of partial saturation on acoustic properties is described by the theory of poroelasticity.

The pressure oscillation method is a widely employed technique for measuring the permeability of time-varying and tight porous media. The previous analytical solution for permeability calculation neglects the unsteady-state condition of the slip effect, and the application of the Klinkenberg correction lacks theoretical support. Existing permeability calculations rely on the periodic part, and...
