Flow through Heterogeneous Geologic Media (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This textbook integrates classic principles of flow through porous media with recently developed stochastic analyses to provide new insight on subsurface hydrology. Importantly, each of the authors has extensive experience in both academia and the world of applied groundwater hydrology. The book not only presents theories but also emphasizes their underlying assumptions, limitations, and the potential pitfalls that may occur as a result of blind application of the theories as 'cookie-cutter' solutions. The book has been developed for advanced-level courses on groundwater fluid flow, hydraulics, and hydrogeology, in either civil and environmental engineering or geoscience departments. It is also a valuable reference text for researchers and professionals in civil and environmental engineering, geology, soil science, environmental science, and petroleum and mining engineering.

Autorenporträt

Tian-Chyi J. Yeh is a professor in the Department of Hydrology and Water Resources at the University of Arizona, a joint professor in the Department of Resources Engineering at the National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan, Republic of China, and an adjunct professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Waterloo. He also holds an Oversea-Renowned Professorship from the Chinese Department of Education at Jilin University, China. Dr Yeh has more than 30 years' experience with stochastic/numerical analysis and laboratory/field investigations, as applied to heterogeneity effects on flow and solute transport in saturated and unsaturated geologic media. He has published more than 120 research articles and chapters in peer-reviewed journals and books.
