Abstract

Beginning with Darcy’s law, the basics of groundwater flow are covered. Unsaturated soils and the Richards equation are analysed, as well as immiscible two-phase flows and the Buckley–Leverett equation. There are sections on dual porosity models, contaminant transport, environmental bioremediation, precipitation and dissolution, consolidation, and compaction.
