Stochastic analysis of unsaturated flow with probabilistic collocation method
[1] In this study, we present an efficient approach, called the probabilistic collocation method (PCM), for uncertainty analysis of flow in unsaturated zones, in which the constitutive relationship between the pressure head and the unsaturated conductivity is assumed to follow the van Genuchten-Mualem model. Spatial variability of soil parameters leads to uncertainty in predicting flow behavior...
متن کاملStochastic analysis of flow in a heterogeneous unsaturated-saturated system
[1] In this study we develop a stochastic model for transient unsaturated-saturated flow in randomly heterogeneous media with the method of moment equations. We first derive partial differential equations governing the statistical moments of the flow quantities by perturbation expansions and then implement these equations under general conditions with the method of finite differences. The stoch...
متن کاملFlow in unsaturated random porous media, nonlinear numerical analysis and comparison to analytical stochastic models
This work presents a rigorous numerical validation of analytical stochastic models of steady state unsaturated flow in heterogeneous porous media. It also provides a crucial link between stochastic theory based on simplifying assumptions and empirical field and simulation evidence of variably saturated flow in actual or realistic hypothetical heterogeneous porous media. Statistical properties o...

متن کاملInstability of unsaturated soil slopes due to infiltration
It is widely known that rainfall induces a rise of the groundwater level and an decrease in matric suction (negative pore water pressure) that results in slope failure. However, in many situations where shallow failures are concerned, it has been noted that there is not much evidence of a rise in the groundwater level sufficient to trigger the observed slope failures. Instead, the failures have...
