In this paper, we study a multiscale method for simulating dual-continuum unsaturated flow problem within complex heterogeneous fractured porous media. Mathematically, each of the dual continua is modeled by Richards equation (for pressure head), and these equations are coupled to one another transfer terms. On its own, already nonlinear partial differential equation, it exceedingly difficult s...

In this essay, Jennifer Richards suggests that a study of Gabriel Harvey’s neglected poetry and prose qualifies his current reputation as a purely pragmatic Renaissance humanist. In his literary writings, Harvey explores the different ways in which social bonds are formed and sustained; this interest is also manifested in his marginalia. Richards considers the continuity between Harvey’s work a...

Advancing anything requires change and a new method. It can be a challenge to bring about the change that you believe in. This change however requires you to plan and say no to the old way of doing things. Fortunately there is a positive way to say no whereby important needs are met. As Ury suggests, we need to focus on how the two opposing forces need to be addressed. There is your internal fo...
