    • Evaluation of Longitudinal Dispersivity from Tracer Test Data 

      Welty, Claire; Gelhar, Lynn W. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989-03)
      Introduction: Mathematical modeling of solute transport has become a standard tool for evaluating the movement and spreading of chemical contaminants in the subsurface aquatic environment. Most frequently, numerical ...

    • Three-dimensional Flow in Random Porous Media 

      Ababou, Rachid; Gelhar, Lynn W.; McLaughlin, Dennis (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988-03)

    • Numerical Simulation of Solute Transport in Randomly Heterogeneous Porous Media: Motivation, Model Development, and Application 

      Tompson, Andrew F. B.; Vomvoris, Efstratios G.; Gelhar, Lynn W. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988-12)
      A particle tracking, or "random walk" solute transport model is developed to study detailed contaminant movements through large, synthetic heterogeneous flow systems in porous media. Such simulations can be used to examine ...
