Abstract: This paper presents a cubic-spline multiscale finite element method (CMSFEM) for solving groundwater flow problems in porous media. The main idea of this method is using the multiscale finite element method (MSFEM) to ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a finite volume–Yeh’s finite-element–multiscale finite-element model (FVYMSFEM) for solute transport simulations, which is extended from its elliptic groundwater-flow equation scheme. The primary goals ...

Abstract: Pumping-induced earth fissuring is a typical fluid–solid coupling problem involving fracture evolution. Despite recent advances in the numerical modeling of earth fissures, a holistic approach capable of predicting their ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to modify the multiscale finite-element method (MSFEM) to solve groundwater flow problems in heterogeneous porous media, such as large-scale problems, long-term prediction problems, and nonlinear ...

Abstract: Two recharge ways, point inflow and lateral inflow, exist on the conduit network in karst aquifers. Point inflow is commonly included in pipe-flow models, but lateral inflow along the conduit network is often ignored. Few ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to investigate the effect of the uncertainty of historical flood information on flood frequency analyses using a Bayesian approach. The uncertainty of the magnitude was described using variations ...

Abstract: Land subsidence caused by groundwater overpumping in Shanghai is becoming a serious geological hazard. Due to its important economic position, the field data, including compression of individual stratum from extensometer ...

Abstract: Severe land subsidence caused by groundwater exploitation is one of the anthropogenic environmental problems. Even when groundwater exploitation has been limited or prohibited in some areas, it will continue in some ...
