Hydrocarbon Penetration in Multi-Porosity Soil

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
AbstractGroundwater contamination is crucial, particularly due to hydrocarbon liquid leakages. Additionally, the vibration impact affects the migration of hydrocarbon through the subsurface soil to the groundwater surface which is causes by the dynamic stress that is imposed on the soils. Therefore, this paper presents the investigation and discussions
