Preferential Flow Paths

Laboratory soil column experiments were conducted to study the distribution of preferential flow paths resulting from removal of fine-size clay particles. These experiments specifically studied the influence of clay (kaolinite) percentage in sand-clay mixtures and the effect of hydraulic gradients on pore evolution. Analysis of the effluent during the experiments indicated that clay particles w...

Random domain decomposition for flow in heterogeneous stratified aquifers

We study two-dimensional flow in a layered heterogeneous medium composed of two materials whose hydraulic properties and spatial distribution are known statistically but are otherwise uncertain. Our analysis relies on the composite media theory, which employs random domain decomposition in the context of groundwater flow moment equations to explicitly account for the separate effects of materia...

Identifying Potential Preferential Paths for Subsurface Transport Using Simulated Annealing

Connected zones of high hydraulic conductivity in subsurface environments can constitute preferential pathways for contaminant transport and fluid flow. The identification of such pathways is important for well head protection, groundwater monitoring and capture system design for groundwater remediation. Since it is not practical to exhaustively sample the subsurface, the existence and probable...
