“…A vertical gradient in excess pressure is therefore created, and the flow occurs in response to that. This groundwater flow problem is described in detail by Chang and Yeh (). It is further assumed that the vertical log hydraulic conductivity (ln K ) field can be treated as a spatially random process (a stochastic process).…”

“…Chang and Yeh () developed relationships between the stochastic structures of ln K and those of induced excess pressure head based on the assumption that a load decreasing linearly with time is applied vertically on the upper part of a finite‐thickness aquifer. Their results governing the groundwater flow field will be applied to investigate the behaviour of variability of solute travel time, which are given by (Eqs 17 and 31 of Chang & Yeh, )

Φ ((),, Z, t) = - \frac{16}{π^{3}} \frac{β_{p} Λ L^{2}}{K_{G}} T_{1} ((), η) sin ((), \frac{π}{2} ξ),

Φ ((),, Z, t) = \int_{- \infty}^{\infty} Α_{Φ} ((),;, Z, t, R) e^{iRZ} {dZ}_{f} ((), R),

where Φ represents the mean of excess pressure head, and ϕ represents small pressure head fluctuations about the mean.…”

This study presents a Lagrangian description of advection dominated field-scale transport of inert solutes, namely, the statistics of advective solute travel time and trajectory, in nonstationary random groundwater flow fields. The vertical flow field is generated by the effects of changes in total stress applied in fluid-saturated heterogeneous deformable porous media. The Lagrangian statistics are developed directly from the velocity statistics based on the application of stochastic methodology such as the representation theorem and Fourier-Stieltjes integral representation. The focus of our numerical evaluation is placed on the influence of the soil compressibility on the Lagrangian statistics. The prediction on the statistics of solute travel time and trajectory may serve as the basic input to the environmental risk assessment.

We present a new method using the modified Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation for smoothing piecewise linear shapes of two-and three-dimensional objects. The CH equation has good smoothing dynamics and it is coupled with a fidelity term which keeps the original given data; that is, it does not produce significant shrinkage. The modified CH equation is discretized using a linearly stable splitting scheme in time and the resulting scheme is solved by using a Fourier spectral method. We present computational results for both curve and surface smoothing problems. The computational results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is fast and efficient.
