Topical Collection: Progress in fractured-rock hydrogeology
نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of hydrogeology with respect to hard-rock and fractured-rock aquifers is described. differences between porous karst are explained, as well the groundwater flow regimes in different fractured rocks. A position taken on numerical modeling, from beginning modeling present day, focus particular challenges. Because importance aquifers, tools for exploration future resource management mentioned. essay introduces a topical collection articles.

Seismic Wave Propagation in Fractured Carbonate Rock
Laboratory experiments were performed on cubic samples of Austin Chalk to investigate the effect of fabric-induced anisotropy on the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. The experimental results found that the fabric-induced layering complicates the interpretation of fracture specific stiffness. Seismic measurements from a sample with small layers (i.e., spacing and thickness) show th...
متن کاملModeling capillary barriers in unsaturated fractured rock
[1] This work presents a series of numerical modeling studies that investigate the hydrogeologic conditions required to form capillary barriers and the effect that capillary barriers have on fluid flow and tracer transport processes in the unsaturated fractured rock of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, a potential site for storing high-level radioactive waste. The modeling approach is based on a dual-con...
متن کاملDNAPL Behavior in Fractured Rock – Transport Facilitated by Pickering Emulsions
Laboratory experiments demonstrate that finely divided solid materials (bentonite, iron oxide, magnesium oxide and manganese oxide) can form stable o/w emulsions for NAPLs such as PCBs, TCE, and diesel fuel. These emulsions, referred to as Pickering emulsions, are stabilized by finely divided solid materials that coat the NAPL-water interface; they do not require the presence of a surfactant to...

متن کاملPermeability Estimation from Velocity Anisotropy in Fractured Rock
Cracks in a rock mass subjected to a uniaxial stress will be preferentially closed depending on the angle between the fracture normal and the direction of the applied stress. If the prestress fracture distribution is isotropic, the effective elastic properties of such a material are then transversely isotropic due to the preferred alignment of the cracks. Velocity measurements in multiple direc...
