A new class of unilateral variational models appearing in the theory of poroelasticity is introduced and studied. A poroelastic medium consists of solid phase and pores saturated with a Newtonian fluid. The medium contains a fluid-driven crack, which is subjected to non-penetration between the opposite crack faces. The fully coupled poroelastic system includes elliptic-parabolic governing equations under the unilateral constraint. Well-posedness of the corresponding variational inequality is established based on the Rothe semi-discretization in time, after subsequent passing time step to zero. The NLCP-formulation of non-penetration conditions is given which is useful for a semi-smooth Newton solution strategy. (c) 2021 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.
