(2017-04-26)Tidal flows through inlets with vortex formation have long been of great environmental importance. The transport mechanisms between the bay and the ocean must be well understood to correctly predict the transport of sediment, ...
-
(2014-08-08)An investigation was conducted to determine how technology innovations, potential risks, plant configuration and size, operating strategy, and financial incentives affect the electricity output, financial payback, and net ...
-
(2014-08-11)The controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) technique is well-established for non-invasive geophysical survey. Due to the strong attenuation of earth materials to electromagnetic signals, the effective depth of most CSEM ...
-
(2018-08-03)Supercell thunderstorms are simulated using a numerical model in order to probe the effects of changing low-level moisture, and thus lifting condensation level (LCL), on outflow characteristics and the evolution of ...
-
(2023-04-24)Numerical modeling of the hydraulic fracturing process is a complex and highly non-linear problem that requires special treatment of the far-field and the near-wellbore fracture propagation. In this study, I developed an ...
-
(2018-11-29)Naturally occurring soils exhibit swelling and shrinking behavior induced by moisture changes. For example, soils tend to swell upon wetting and shrink during drying. This behavior leads to stresses changes that may exceed ...

Numerical modeling of alongshore sediment transport and shoreline change along the Galveston coast (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)An alongshore sediment transport and shoreline change analysis on Galveston Island in the period of 1990-2001 is conducted in this study using the Generalized Model for Simulating Shoreline Change (GENESIS). The study is ...
-
(2010-07-14)Fractures are the main flow channels in naturally fractured reservoirs. Therefore the fracture permeability is a critical parameter to production optimization and reservoir management. Fluid pressure reduction caused by ...
