A Symmetrical Streamline Stabilization scheme for high advective transport     

E. Wendland  G. Schmid 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2000,24(1):29-45

An overview of numerical techniques and previous investigations related to the solution of advection‐dominated transport processes is presented. In addition a new Symmetrical Streamline Stabilization (S³) scheme is introduced. The basis of the technique is to treat the transport equation in two steps. In the first step the dispersion part is approximated by a standard Galerkin approach, while in the second step the advection is approximated by a least‐squares method. The two parts are reassembled, resulting in one system of equations. The resulting coefficients' matrix is symmetric. Only half of a sparse matrix needs to be stored. Robust iterative algorithms for symmetrical systems of equations such as the preconditioned conjugate gradient method (PCG) can be successfully used. The new method leads to an implicit introduction of an ‘artificial diffusion’ term. Solute transport with high Peclet and Courant numbers does not lead to oscillations due to an inherent upwind damping. The upwind effect acts only in flow direction. The efficiency of the new formulation in terms of accuracy and computation time is shown in comparison with the Galerkin approach for mesh parallel and mesh oblique high advective solute transport.

Effect of coupling noise on the interpretation of results of electromagnetic horizontal sounding and modeling     

Leonardo S. R. Mocitaiba  Edson E. S. Sampaio  Olivar A. L. de Lima 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》2017,61(4):801-825

The time variation of a source of alternating current produces an electromagnetic coupling between the transmitting and receiving systems in induced electrical polarization and resistivity surveys that employ horizontal electrical sounding. The coupling alters, sometimes significantly, the resistivity and chargeability values and, consequently, compromises the interpretation of the data. This work develops the analysis of this coupling on the time domain for both a homogeneous Earth and an Earth constituted of several homogeneous horizontal layers. Based on the results, it evaluates the theoretical variation of the voltage and compares it to observed data of an induced electrical polarization and resistivity survey with horizontal electrical sounding. The comparative study of the voltage decay curves assesses the contribution of the electromagnetic coupling to the values of the chargeability and apparent resistivity as a function of the bipole length and the period of the source current. Besides that, the respective pseudosections have delineated the horizontal and vertical variations of those two electrical properties, providing the interpretation of the geoelectrical section. This research is important for the oil industry because it may furnish information that help to: (i) define the structure of the sedimentary strata; (ii) estimate the clay content of the sandstones; and (iii) detect the possible presence of metallic sulphide halos at fractured zones of the sediments above the oil reservoir. It may be adapted to analysis of EM coupling in both resistive and induced electric well logs.  相似文献   

Development of a conceptual hydrogeological model for the evaluation of residence times of water in soil and groundwater: the state of Hesse case study, Germany   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

Frank Herrmann  Georg Berthold  Johann-Gerhard Fritsche  Ralf Kunkel  Hans-Jürgen Voigt  Frank Wendland 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2012,67(8):2239-2250

A regional conceptual hydrogeological model has been developed for evaluating residence times of both, percolate water in the unsaturated zone and groundwater in upper aquifers. The model is based on digitally geo-data bases available at the regional level and has been applied for the entire Federal State of Hesse (Germany) with a spatial resolution of 60?×?60?m. Residence times determined for unconsolidated rock areas typically ranged between 10 and 25?years, whereas residence times of <5?years were assessed for consolidated rock areas. With regard to the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive, the determined residence times may help to assess the time periods between the introduction of well-targeted groundwater protection measures and their impact on groundwater and surface water quality, respectively.  相似文献   

Variability of energy fluxes in relation to the net-radiation of urban and suburban areas: a case study     

Edson R. Marciotto 《Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics》2013,121(1-2):17-28

This paper addresses the relation between the net-radiation (Q ^*) and the ground heat flux (Q _G), the energy stored in the soil ( $\Updelta Q_{\rm S}$ ), and the residual of the energy partition (R = Q ^* ? Q _H  ? Q _E ) of urban and suburban areas of Oklahoma City, USA. These three forms of energy were observed or estimated from observations taken during Joint Urban 2003 Campaign. The database includes net-radiation, soil temperature, ground heat flux, and turbulent fluxes. In most cases the estimates of the energy stored in the soil were obtained by assuming roughly a certain type of soil and an effective soil depth. From the residuals it seems to be possible to distinguish the urban boundary layer from the suburban boundary layer when plotted as a function of net-radiation. Hysteresis coefficients were computed for fits of net-radiation against R, $\Updelta Q_{\rm S}$ and Q _G. In particular, the hysteresis patterns show that Q ^* vs. R represents clearer urban areas or suburban areas under the influence of an urban “plume”. On the other hand, hysteresis curves obtained from $\Updelta Q_{\rm S}$ or Q _G account for better the ground composition. A possible consequence is that the land use of urban areas could be roughly inferred from curve shapes such as Q ^* vs. R, or Q ^* versus another input variable representing the storage term. The objective is to show the variability of the subsurface-related energy fluxes across an urban area using these three different quantities and also to show that $\Updelta Q_{\rm S}, \,Q_{\rm G}$ , or R (and their corresponding hysteresis curves) are likely to be quantitatively different, which have not been clearly stated in the literature.  相似文献

Dynamic displacement and stress solutions for viscoelastic half‐spaces subjected to harmonic concentrated loads using the Radon and Fourier transforms     

Euclides Mesquita  Marco Adolph  Edson Rodrigues Carvalho  Edivaldo Romanini 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2009,33(18):1933-1952

In this article a numerical solution for a three‐dimensional isotropic, viscoelastic half‐space subjected to concentrated surface stress loadings is synthesized with the aid of the Radon and Fourier integral transforms. Dynamic displacement and stress fields are computed for points at the surface and inside the domain. The analysis is performed in the frequency domain. Viscoelastic effects are incorporated by means of the elastic–viscoelastic correspondence principle. The equations of motion are solved in the Radon–Fourier transformed domain. Inverse transformations to the physical domain are accomplished numerically. The scheme used to perform the numerical inverse transformations is addressed. The solution is validated by comparison with results available in the literature. A set of original dynamic displacement and stress solutions for points within the half‐space is presented.

Groundwater recharge rates for regional groundwater modelling: a case study using GROWA in the Lower Rhine lignite mining area, Germany     

Frank Herrmann  Christoph Jahnke  Florian Jenn  Ralf Kunkel  Hans-Jürgen Voigt  Jens Voigt  Frank Wendland 《Hydrogeology Journal》2009,17(8):2049-2060

Groundwater recharge rates calculated with the GROWA model have been applied as the recharge boundary condition for the regional groundwater model Rurscholle. This model simulates groundwater dynamics in the Pleistocene aquifers of the Lower Rhine lignite mining area (Germany). GROWA uses an area-differentiated approach to calculate recharge rates depending on runoff-relevant site characteristics, which are represented by a set of baseflow indices. The regional accuracy of the coupled groundwater and GROWA models has been checked using groundwater hydrographs as validation criteria. The results suggest that the current (unadjusted) version of GROWA underestimates the regional groundwater recharge rate by 10–20 mm/yr. The comparative analysis identified areas where recharge calculations could be improved by adjusting the baseflow indices for areas where runoff is dominated by slope, low water-logging and a low degree of sealing. Using the adjusted set of baseflow indices, the mean groundwater recharge rate of the Rurscholle region was modelled as approx. 170 mm/yr. This study highlights the benefit of using a coupled approach and being able to independently calibrate and validate groundwater recharge boundary conditions in regional groundwater models.  相似文献

Potential nitrate pollution of groundwater in Germany: A supraregional differentiated model     

F. Wendland  H. Albert  M. Bach  R. Schmidt 《Environmental Geology》1994,24(1):1-6

Implemented on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Research and Technology (BMFT), a model is developed to trace the nutrient flow of nitrate in the soil and the groundwater on a supraregional scale. Research work is intended to indicate regionally differentiated hazardous potentials and thereby provide a basis for recommending comprehensive measures to protect groundwater in Germany. The adaption of the model to the hydrogeological and agricultural conditions of other states is possible in principle. This article focuses on the hydrogeological model parts. A high nitrate pollution of groundwater can be expected in all regions with intensive agricultural use of the topsoil. In particular, groundwater in solid rock areas is susceptible to nitrate pollution. There a rapid groundwater turnover and thus a short residence time for the groundwater in the aquifer is typical. Oxidizing aquifer conditions usually prevail in solid rock aquifers, preventing nitrate degradation. In many loose rock areas, in contrast, the groundwater has a low flow velocity and a long residence time in the aquifer. Because of a lack of free oxygen, a complete degradation of nitrate can occur, as long as iron sulfide compounds and/or organic carbon are available in the aquifer. A more detailed presentation of the whole research work is given in Wendland et al. (1993).  相似文献
