    Study of the Effect of Thermal Dispersion on Internal Natural Convection in Porous Media Using Fourier Series

    Natural convection in a porous enclosure in the presence of thermal dispersion is investigated. The Fourier–Galerkin (FG) spectral element method is adapted to solve the coupled equations of Darcy’s flow and h...

    Dimensionality reduction for efficient Bayesian estimation of groundwater flow in strongly heterogeneous aquifers

    We focus on the Bayesian estimation of strongly heterogeneous transmissivity fields conditional on data sampled at a set of locations in an aquifer. Log-transmissivity, Y, is modeled as a stochastic Gaussian proc...

    A semi-analytical solution for saltwater intrusion with a very narrow transition zone

    The Henry saltwater intrusion problem provides a semi-analytical solution that is largely used for benchmarking density-dependent groundwater flow models. The major drawback of this problem arises from the hig...

    A Semi-Analytical Solution for the Reactive Henry Saltwater Intrusion Problem

    Because of the existence of a semi-analytical solution, the Henry saltwater intrusion problem has been widely used for benchmarking non-reactive density-driven flow models. In this work, we extend the semi-ana...

    Effects of tectonic structures, salt solution mining, and density-driven groundwater hydraulics on evaporite dissolution (Switzerland)

    Subsurface dissolution (subrosion) of evaporites such as halite and gypsum can lead to extensive land subsidence. Recent land subsidences have been surveyed at six separate locations in northwestern Switzerlan...

    Computational issues of hybrid and multipoint mixed methods for groundwater flow in anisotropic media

    In this work, lowest-order Raviart–Thomas and Brezzi–Douglas–Marini mixed methods are considered for groundwater flow simulations. Typically, mixed methods lead to a saddle-point problem, which is expensive to...
