Application of Reactive Transport Modeling to Growth and Transport of Microorganisms in the Capillary Fringe
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical code for reactive multiphase multicomponent flow based on an operator splitting approach was proposed to predict the growth of microorganisms based only on independent measurements without additional calibration.
TCAT analysis of capillary pressure in non-equilibrium, two-fluid-phase, porous medium systems
William G. Gray,Cass T. Miller +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that dynamic processes are related to changes in interfacial area between phases as well as saturation, and a more complete formulation of capillary pressure dynamics is presented leading to an equation that is suitable for experimental study.
An approach for quantification of the heterogeneity of DNAPL source zone geometries.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed an approach to parameterize the source shape by considering the variation of width and midpoints over the depth of the entire source zone and formulate four parameters based on population statistics (mean, standard deviation).

A new model for predicting the hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated porous media
TL;DR: In this article, a simple analytic model is proposed which predicts the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves by using the moisture content-capillary head curve and the measured value of the hydraulic conductivities at saturation.
