The flow of a fluid through a porous medium is often modeled by the Brinkman or the Darcy system. In this paper we investigate Saint-Venant type decay of solutions for both systems when the medium is confined to a semi-infinite cylinder and appropriate homogeneous initial and boundary values are assumed.
