Abstract. This work describes several physical models of the mechanical properties of rocks resulting in macroscopic nonlinear behavior due to their mesoscopic-scale structure. Theoret-ical models include Hertzian grain contacts with multiple scales and hysteretic properties. A significant addition to the highly nonlinear response in these materials are fluids contained in the soft bond system
