A Bayesian Consistent Dual Ensemble Kalman Filter for State-Parameter Estimation in Subsurface Hydrology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ensemble Kalman filtering (EnKF) is an efficient approach to addressing uncertainties in subsurface groundwater models. The EnKF sequentially integrates field data into simulation models to obtain a better characterization of the model's state and ...

Study of Mechanisms Governing Electromagnetic Alteration of Hydraulic Conductivity of Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hydraulic conductivity is a measure of the rate at which water flows through porous media. Because of the dipole properties of water molecules, electric field can affect hydraulic conductivity.

Random Characteristics of Hydraulic Gradient through Three-Dimensional Multilayer Embankment

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
The distribution characteristics of hydraulic gradient in embankment are closely related to seepage failure. Seepage failures such as flowing soil and piping will lead to serious damage and even the overall failure of embankment.
