Influence of Water Table Fluctuation on Natural Source Zone Depletion in Hydrocarbon Contaminated Subsurface Environments
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Most of the prediction theories regarding dissolution of organic contaminants in the
subsurface systems have been proposed based on the static water conditions and
the influence of water fluctuations on mass removal requires ...
Predicted and Back-calculated Coefficients of Permeability of Randomly Fractured Rock Mass: A Case Study
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents the discrepancy between the coefficients of permeability measured
for randomly fractured limestone using field falling-head tests and that back-calculated
for the same rock mass based on the actual ...
