Geostatistical interpolation by quantile kriging [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019
The widely applied geostatistical interpolation methods of ordinary kriging (OK) or external drift kriging (EDK) interpolate the variable of interest to the unknown location, providing a linear estimator and an estimation variance as measure of ...

Investigation of hydrological time series using copulas for detecting catchment characteristics and anthropogenic impacts [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Global climate change can have impacts on characteristics of rainfall–runoff events and subsequently on the hydrological regime. Meanwhile, the catchment itself changes due to anthropogenic influences.

Probabilistic downscaling of EURO-CORDEX precipitation data for the assessment of future areal precipitation extremes for hourly to daily durations [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences
This work presents a methodology to inspect the changing statistical properties of precipitation extremes with climate change. Data from regional climate models for the European continent (EURO-CORDEX 11) were used.

Optimization of urban water pipe network design using fast-messy genetic algorithms (fmGA)

open access: yesH2Open Journal, 2023
To have an efficient water distribution network, optimal design alternatives need to be identified and analysed using combined hydraulic modelling and optimization.

Beam model for hydraulic fracturing [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 1994
We investigate numerically the shape of cracks obtained in hydraulic fracturing at constant pressure using a square-lattice beam model with disorder. We consider the case in which only beams under tension can break, and discuss the conditions under which the resulting cracks may develop fractal patterns.

A Stochastic Framework to Optimize Monitoring Strategies for Delineating Groundwater Divides

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Surface-water divides can be delineated by analyzing digital elevation models. They might, however, significantly differ from groundwater divides because the groundwater surface does not necessarily follow the surface topography.

Recent comprehensive review for extended finite element method (XFEM) based on hydraulic fracturing models for unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020
Hydraulic fracturing has been around for several decades since 1860s. It is one of the methods used to recover unconventional gas reservoirs. Hydraulic fracturing design is a challenging task due to the reservoir heterogeneity, complicated geological ...

Definition of Spatial Copula Based Dependence Using a Family of Non‐Gaussian Spatial Random Fields

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2023
Spatial structures of natural variables are often very complex due to the different physical chemical or biological processes which contributed to the emergence of the fields. These structures often show non‐Gaussian spatial dependence.
