Solute transport under steady and transient conditions in biodegraded municipal solid waste
(American Geophysical Union, 1999-08)
The transport of a conservative tracer (lithium) in a large (3.5 m3) undisturbed municipal solid waste sample has been investigated under steady and fully transient conditions using a simple model. The model comprises a ...
Kinematic wave model for water movement in municipal solid waste
(American Geophysical Union, 1998-11)
The movement of water in a large (3.5 m3) undisturbed sample of 22-year-old municipal solid waste has been modeled using a kinematic wave approximation for unsaturated infiltration and internal drainage. The model employs ...
An entropy-based morphological analysis of river basin networks
(American Geophysical Union, 1993-04)
Under the assumption that the only information available on a drainage basin is its mean elevation, the connection between entropy and potential energy is explored to analyze drainage basins morphological characteristics. ...
Improved Finite-Element Method for Solute Transport
(1995-02)
Five major modifications to the Galerkin finite-element formulation for solute transport were made in this study: (1) A mixed formulation for the time-derivative term of the governing equation was developed by combining ...
Probabilistic Approach to Local Bridge Pier Scour
(1992)
A method is presented for evaluating the risk of failure of bridge structures due to pier scour during flood events. The method takes into account the hydrodynamics of the flow field in the vicinity of the pier. A newly ...
