Abstract: A dense fluid in an unconfined aquifer is usually removed by pumping a recovery well screened in the region of the aquifer occupied by the fluid. For many problems, the transition zone separating the dense fluid from the ...

Abstract: Wave‐induced pressures are an important design consideration for oil and natural gas pipelines buried in the marine environment. Realistic problems are three‐dimensional in nature and involve waves approaching the buried ...

Abstract: Fluidization systems in the coastal environment can be used to maintain channels and aid in sand bypassing. Induced flow from small holes in a buried source pipe will fluidize the overlying sand for a sufficiently high ...

Abstract: Flow emanating from perforations in a buried pipe can be used to fluidize sand in the coastal environment. A trench of specified length, width, and depth can be created by fluidization for applications such as sand bypassing ...

Abstract: From the theory of flow through porous media, the governing equation for hydraulic head is developed for flow emanating from small holes in a pipe buried in fine sand in the coastal environment. Calculated Reynolds numbers ...

Abstract: One‐dimensional fluidization in a bounded domain is a well‐understood phenomenon. However, in unbounded domains, the formation of an interface between the fluidized and unfluidized regions is a complicated phenomenon that ...
