Book Synopsis Subsurface Flow and Transport by : Gedeon Dagan
Download or read book Subsurface Flow and Transport written by Gedeon Dagan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-09-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a major method in modelling the flow of water and transport of solutes in the subsurface, a subject of considerable interest in the exploitation and preservation of water resources. The stochastic approach allows the uncertainty which affects various properties and parameters to be incorporated in models of subsurface flow and transport. These much more realistic models are of greater use in, for example, modelling the transport and build-up of contaminants in groundwater. The volume is based on the second Kovacs Colloquium organised by the International Hydrological Programme (UNESCO) and the International Association of Hydrological Sciences. Fifteen leading scientists with international reputations review the latest developments in this area. The book is a valuable reference work for graduate students, research workers and professionals in government and public institutions, interested in hydrology, environmental issues, soil physics, petroleum engineering, geological engineering and applied mathematics.

Book Synopsis Unsaturated-zone Modeling by : R.A. Feddes
Download or read book Unsaturated-zone Modeling written by R.A. Feddes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-10-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mankind has manipulated the quantity and quality of soil water for millennia. Food production was massively increased through fertilization, irrigation and drainage. But malpractice also caused degradation of immense areas of once fertile land, rendering it totally unproductive for many generations. In populated areas, the pollutant load ever more often exceeds the soil’s capacity for buffering and retention, and large volumes of potable groundwater have been polluted or are threatened to be polluted in the foreseeable future. In the past decades, the role of soil water in climate patterns has been recognized but not yet fully understood. The soil-science community responded to this diversity of issues by developing numerical models to simulate the behavior of water and solutes in soils. These models helped improve our understanding of unsaturated-zone processes and develop sustainable land-management practices. Aimed at professional soil scientists, soil-water modelers, irrigation engineers etc., this book discusses our progress in soil-water modeling. Top scientists present case studies, overviews and analyses of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats related to soil-water modeling. The contributions cover a wide range of spatial scales, and discuss fundamental aspects of unsaturated-zone modeling as well as issues related to the application of models to real-world problems.
Book Synopsis Contaminants in the Subsurface by : National Research Council
Download or read book Contaminants in the Subsurface written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-04-23 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At hundreds of thousands of commercial, industrial, and military sites across the country, subsurface materials including groundwater are contaminated with chemical waste. The last decade has seen growing interest in using aggressive source remediation technologies to remove contaminants from the subsurface, but there is limited understanding of (1) the effectiveness of these technologies and (2) the overall effect of mass removal on groundwater quality. This report reviews the suite of technologies available for source remediation and their ability to reach a variety of cleanup goals, from meeting regulatory standards for groundwater to reducing costs. The report proposes elements of a protocol for accomplishing source remediation that should enable project managers to decide whether and how to pursue source remediation at their sites.
Book Synopsis Introductory Laplace Transform with Applications by : Dalpatadu
Download or read book Introductory Laplace Transform with Applications written by Dalpatadu and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the first applications of the modern Laplace transform was by Bateman in 1910 who used it to transform Rutherfords equations in his work on radioactive decay. The modeling of complex engineering and physical problems by linear differential equations has made the Laplace transform an indispensable mathematical tool for engineers and scientists. The method of Laplace transform for solving linear differential equations is very popular in the disciplines of electrical engineering, environmental engineering, hydrology, and petroleum engineering. This book presents some applications of Laplace transforms in these disciplines. Algorithms for the numerical inversion of Laplace transform are given, and a computer program in R for the Stehfest algorithm is included.
Book Synopsis Working with Dynamic Crop Models by : Daniel Wallach
Download or read book Working with Dynamic Crop Models written by Daniel Wallach and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2006-05-10 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical models are being used more and more widely to study complex dynamic systems (global weather, ecological systems, hydrological systems, nuclear reactors etc. including the specific subject of this book, crop-soil systems). The models are important aids in understanding, predicting and managing these systems. Such models are complex and imperfect. One fundamental research direction is to seek a better understanding of how these systems function, and to propose mathematical expressions embodying that understanding. However, this is not sufficient. It is also essential to have tools (often mathematical and statistical methods) to aid in developing, improving and using the models built from those equations. The book is specifically concerned with the application of methods to crop models, but much of the material is also applicable to dynamic system models in other fields. The goal of this book is to fill that gap. * State-of-the-art methods explained simply and illustrated specifically for crop models* Parameter estimation – applying statistical methods to the complex case of crop models, including Bayesian methods * Includes model evaluation, understanding and estimating prediction error* Offers a unique data assimilation by using the Kalman filter and beyond
Book Synopsis Development of a One Dimensional Subsurface Contaminant Transport Model with Stochastic Applications by : Benjamin Waldon Johnson
Download or read book Development of a One Dimensional Subsurface Contaminant Transport Model with Stochastic Applications written by Benjamin Waldon Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Contaminant source release history is a necessary element of contaminant mass transport simulation in the saturated zone. The source release history is unknown at many sites, and many inverse models have been developed to define finite release histories. To define a likely domain of three source history parameters, a mass balancebased one dimensional approach is developed and tested by discretizing the spatial domain into bands. By incorporating the approach in a spreadsheet model, observed data is represented by both variable length and constant length bands of analysis. Each representation of observed data was tested to determine the most appropriate band geometry for improved model calibration and constant length bands results were more accurate than results of variable length bands. The source history parameter domains predicted by the model are then evaluated with Monte Carlo analysis. After datasets of artificial transport systems are developed and evaluated with the model, actual site data from a Superfund site is input to the model that provides reasonable results of the source history parameters. Limitations of the model require site characteristics that include negligible diffusion, a uniform regional flow field, and isotropic and homogeneous aquifer media"--Abstract, leaf iv.
