Multi-Dimensional Modeling of Unsaturated Flow in the Vicinity of Exploratory Shafts and Fault Zones at Yucca Mountain, Nevada
Modeling studies were conducted to determine the potential effects of exploratory shafts on moisture distribution in the vicinity of an exploratory shaft facility, and the potential for...

Applications of Fracture-Flow Modeling to Site Characterization
This paper describes practical applications of discrete-fracture approaches for design and analysis of groundwater flow about high-level radioactive waste repositories. The paper presents...

Fluid Line Deployment and Repair for Space Station
Deployment of the utility system for providing services to the NASA Space Station Freedom provides a unique challenge in design and material technology. The system must be lightweight,...

Conceptual Design for a Lunar-Base CELSS
Future human exploration is key to the United States National Space Policy goal of maintaining a world leadership position in space. In the past, spacecraft life support systems have used...

Upgrading Hydraulic Infrastructure for Level One Redundancy
In the current paper a methodology is presented for upgrading any single source water distribution system in order to provide a level one system redundancy at a minimum cost. A level one...

Soft Bottom Low Flow Channel?A New Approach
In 1987, the City of Boulder, Colorado requested assistance from the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (District) to repair a problem of cattails growing in the low flow portion...

Utilization of Stormwater Runoff to Recharge Underlying Aquifer
Based on the available data and its proximity to the Capital area, Wadi Al Khawd was selected as the site of the first aquifer recharge project in Oman. The project was designed by Stanley...

Using an Index Stream to Make Instream Flow Decisions
The paper discusses development of an Integrated Operating Plan (IOP) that uses an unregulated (natural) stream in the upper Cedar basin as an index of overall hydrologic status of the...

Water Measurement and Accounting of Lake Michigan Diversion
The diversion of water from Lake Michigan and the Lake Michigan Basin into the Mississippi River Basin has been regulated since the turn of the century. The U.S. Supreme Court Decree of...

Modeling Groundwater Flow in San Joaquin Valley
Water supply, reallocation and conjunctive use options, within the San Joaquin and Tulare basins of the Central Valley of California, are being considered by Federal and State Planning...

Groundwater Modeling of the Tustin/Irvine Basin
This paper describes the results of groundwater modeling in the Tustin/Irvine basin situated in the southeastern portion of the Tustin plain, which is the the southern extension of the...

Spatial Averaging of Statistically Anisotropic Point Conductivities
This paper presents a new technique to compute the mean, variogram and cross-variograms of the components of block conductivity tensors given the statistical distribution of point conductivities....

Instream Habitat Considering Hydro-Peaking
Hydroelectric projects with storage have the characteristic of being able to generate electricity with short notice and to stop generating electricity with equally short notice. This peaking...

Identification of Aquifer Parameters in Confined Groundwater Flow
The logarithm of the aquifer properties, log transmissivity (log T) and log storativity (log S), are regarded as realizations of stochastic processes whose estimates are required. The...

Causes and Possible Control Measures of Flood in Bangladesh
Intensity and frequency of occurrence of devastating floods in Bangladesh have increased significantly over the past two decades. Large scale deforestation in the upstream reaches of Ganges,...

Streamflow Prediction and Allocation Model in Texas
The State of Texas' Water Rights Adjudication Act of 1967 provided for the creation of regional watermasters to divide the water of state streams in accordance with the adjudicated...

Flownets by Computer Graphics
A new method of drawing flownets for determining seepage losses in earth dams is developed. The flow and equipotential lines are drawn by modifying W. Kinzelbagh's method....

A Two-Dimensional Model for Estimating Leachate Flow in Landfills
A numerical model has been developed to compute the leachate flow from solid waste landfills in an unsteady state condition. The two-dimensional moisture flow equation along with the boundary...

Numerical Model Study of Groundwater Movement in an Aquifer of Bangladesh
Annual groundwater level variation in the aquifer of the Mymensingh-Tangail area of Bangladesh was simulated by applying an implicit finite-difference model of groundwater flow. The groundwater...

Application of a Water Budget for Instream Flows
A portion of a water supply reservoir can be dedicated to supplying instream flows. This subreservoir is operated to provide instream fish habitat below the reservoir when releases to...
