An extension of the open-source porousMultiphaseFoam toolbox dedicated to groundwater flows solving the Richards' equation
In this note, the existing porousMultiphaseFoam toolbox, developed initially for any two-phase flow in porous media is extended to the specific case of the Richards’ equation which neglect the pressure gradient of the non-wetting phase. This model is typically used for saturated and unsaturated groundwater flows. A Picard’s algorithm is implemented to linearize and solve the Richards’ equation ...
متن کاملSteady Groundwater Flow To Drains On A Sloping Bed: Comparison of Solutions based on Boussinesq Equation and Richards Equation
The steady groundwater flow of water to drains on a sloping bed is re-examined. Results from a number of solutions for the maximum watertable height (hm) for flow to drains on slopes are presented and compared with published HeleShaw model results and HYDRUS2D numerical model calculations. Numerical modelling shows that when the length of the slope (L) < 50 m the ratio L/hm is affected by L (...

متن کاملDisentangling Diversity Patterns in Sandy Beaches along Environmental Gradients
Species richness in sandy beaches is strongly affected by concurrent variations in morphodynamics and salinity. However, as in other ecosystems, different groups of species may exhibit contrasting patterns in response to these environmental variables, which would be obscured if only aggregate richness is considered. Deconstructing biodiversity, i.e. considering richness patterns separately for ...
متن کاملVertical distribution of meiofauna on reflective sandy beaches
Extreme physical conditions usually limit the meiofauna occurrence and distribution in highly hydrodynamic environments such as reflective beaches. Despite sediment grains of the upper layers being constantly resuspended and deposited, the high energy of the swash zone besides depositing coarse sediments allows an ample vertical distribution of meiofaunal organisms. The effect of physical, chem...
