Fully integrated three-dimensional (3D) physically based hydrologic models usually require many computational resources. For many applications, simplified models can be a cost-effective alternative. The 3D models of ...

The real-time forecasting of urban flooding is a challenging task for the following two reasons: (1) urban flooding is often characterized by short lead times, (2) the uncertainty in precipitation forecasting is usually ...

The paper presents a 2D upward infiltration experiment performed on a model porous medium consisting of fine sand background with two inclusions made of coarser sands. The purpose of the experiment was to investigate the ...

We present a multi-dimensional continuum mathematical model for modeling the growth of a symbiotic biofilm system. We take a dual-species namely, the Streptococcus–Veillonella sp. biofilm system as an example for numerical ...

Coupled numerical models, which simulate water and energy fluxes in the subsurface-land-surface-atmosphere system in a physically consistent way, are a prerequisite for the analysis and a better understanding of heat and ...

We consider a model for biofilm growth in the continuum mechanics framework, where the growth of different components of biomass is governed by a time dependent advection–reaction equation. The recently developed ...

Advective trapping occurs when solute enters low velocity zones in heterogeneous porous media. Classical local modelling approaches combine the impact of slow advection and diffusion into a hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient ...
