Dynamic Effects in Oil/Water and Air/Water Capillary Pressure-Saturation Curves:  Experiments and Lattice-Boltzmann Simulations

description: The capillary pressure-saturation curve is widely used to characterize hydraulic
properties of porous media.  It is often assumed that curves measured under
equilibrium or steady-state flow conditions can be applied to transient flow
conditions, and vice versa.  Yet, substantial experimental evidence suggests that
capillary pressure-saturation curves obtained during transient conditions differ from
those obtained under equilibrium or steady-state conditions.  It has been shown that
the capillary pressure-saturation curve shows signs of dynamic behavior depending on
the inflow and outflow rate applied to the porous system. The exact cause of the
observed shift is not yet fully understood.  It is hypothesized that the mechanisms
responsible for dynamic behavior include: (1) the geometry of the pore space, (2)
interfacial phenomena at the pore scale, and (3) the interplay of inertial and
viscous forces.

In this investigation, air/water and oil/water imbibition and drainage experiments
were conducted on a column of packed glass beads.  Various inflow and outflow rates
were applied to each multi-phase system, which resulted in capillary
pressure-saturation curves that exhibit varying degrees of dynamic behavior.  The
dynamic behavior observed in preliminary oil/water experiments was less pronounced
than the behavior observed in past air/water experiments.  This suggests that the
viscous and inertial forces may only be a major factor when the density and viscosity
ratios are large, as is the case for the air/water system.

The dynamic behavior was examined using conceptual 2D and 3D lattice-Boltzmann (LB)
simulations. We used the multi-phase, multi-component model developed by Shan and
Chen for these simulations. The conceptual LB simulations can provide insights into
pore-scale interfacial phenomena and help explain the dynamic behavior observed in
the experiments.  Scaling of time and space from LB parameters to physical parameters
was performed to make comparisons between simulation and experimental results possible.

description: Highway runoff can cause a number of water quantity and quality problems. Stormwater management systems for highways have been developed based on a fast drainage for large storm situations. Nonpoint source pollution from highway runoff is a growing water quality concern. Stormwater quality control needs to be integrated into highway drainage design and operation to reduce the stormwater impacts on the receiving water. A continuous simulation/optimization model for analyzing integrated highway BMPs is presented. This model can evaluate the life cycle performance of infiltration and/or storage oriented highway BMPs. It can be directly integrated with spreadsheet optimization tools to find the least cost options for implementing BMPs throughout a specified life cycle.

In a revision of the tribe Cacteae, subtribe Sclerocactinae Doweld of the Cactaceae (Doweld 1998, 2000), the genus Toumeya Britton & Rose (1922) was accepted as a distinct genus on the basis of the comprehensive complex of characters, including newly added seed micromorphology in particular. However, the parahomonym was known at that time, and Doweld (in litt.) submitted an official request to the General Committee of Botanical Nomenclature for the binding decision whether the pair of parahomonyms, Toumeya Britton & Rose (1922) and Tuomeya W.H. Harvey (1858), are sufficiently alike to be confused. The Committee for Spermatophyta resolved the case and confirmed that these generic names are homonyms (Brummitt 2004: 824), and the General Committee approved this decision (Barrie 2006: 798). In this connection, a new replacement name for cacti is validated here in anticipation of the preparing new revision of the systematics of the tribe Cacteae.

description: The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the application of integrated control in minimizing the effect of wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) and overflows on a river basin under wet weather conditions. An Integrated Urban Water System comprised of the WWTP, river and sewer is considered. The control strategy is based on model predictive control, which enables the physical and quality constraints to be explicitly incorporated into the control solution. Model based predictive control of dissolved oxygen that considers the entire integrated process is presented. The linear control method used is extended to this nonlinear system using fuzzy gain-scheduling. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed integrated control system.

description: Public support is crucial for successful implementation of wastewater reuse projects. This paper analyses the findings of a questionnaire-type survey (256 participants) conducted to determine the attitude of Israeli urban public towards possible urban reuse options. The paper summarises the support / objection to 13 reuse options and the correlation between support and environmental awareness and perceptions. Results show that high proportion of the participants supported options perceived as low-contact, such as irrigation of public parks (96%), sidewalk landscaping (95%) and use in the construction industry (94%), while higher-contact reuse options found lesser support (e.g. commercial launderettes, 60%). No correlation was found between biographical characteristics and support (education, gender, income, age). Based on the results, public campaigns in Israel should focus on disseminating information regarding wastewater treatment technologies, discuss health related issues, highlight the positive economic impact of water reuse and generate a positive public opinion, as these tend to influence individuals to support reuse projects.

description: Genus Myoplatypus Wood, 1993: 274.
Type species: Bostrichus flavicornis Fabricius. Original designation.
Diagnosis. This genus belongs in the tribe Platypodini (Wood 1993;Alonzo-Zarazaga & Lyal 2009).It is distinguished from all other American genera by the presence in males of a transverse pair of prominent spines on ventrite 3. It is also distinguished from most species in other Platypodini genera by its slender body shape, where both sexes are more than 3 × as long as wide (four species are> 4 × as long as wide). The genera most similar in size and general appearance to Myoplatypus are Epiplatypus Wood, Teloplatypus Wood. and Costaroplatus Wood. These three genera do not have greatly produced ventrolateral projections from the corners of the declivity as do many species in other Neotropical genera, and their males have a very short, vertical declivity that, too, is rarely seen in species of other genera. Males of Epiplatypus, Teloplatypus and Costaroplatus do not have spines on ventrite 3, and males of the latter two are not as elongate (are <3 × as long as wide). Females of Epiplatypus (and males of some species) have a pair of mycangial pores on the pronotum, a feature that has only been found so far in one Myoplatypus, M. sicarius (tranferred to Myoplatypus in this paper). Teloplatypus females are <3 × as long as wide. Costaroplatus females have the lower frons impressed (flat in Myoplatypus) and have a distinctively triangular scape that is about as wide as long (the scape in Myoplatypus females being longer than wide).
In creating this genus, Wood combined the five Neotropical Platypus species in Schedl’s “Sektion Platypi bilobati ” (Schedl 1972) with the Nearctic species Platypus flavicornis (F.), apparently based on the ventrite 3 character and some superficial resemblances between P. flavicornis and the bilobati species. We are not sure that the ventral spines in M. flavicornis (the type species of the genus) are homologous with those of the other Myoplatypus species, and we have found other differences as well that put this relationship in doubt. Until a more detailed analysis can be carried out, we prefer to continue using Wood’s genus composition.

description: Stormwater quality simulation models are useful tools for the design and management of sewer systems. Modelling results can be sensitive to experimental data used for calibration. This sensitivity is examined for three modelling approaches of various complexities (site mean concentration approach, event mean concentration approach and build-up, washoff and transport modelling approach) applied to a dry detention pond design case study, accounting for the variability of calibration data and their effect on simulation results. Calibrated models with different calibration data sets were used to simulate three years of rainfall with different detention pond volumes. Annual pollutant load interception efficiencies were determined. Simulations results revealed i) that there is no advantage in using the EMC model compared to the SMC model and ii) that the BWT model resulted in higher design ratios than those given by the SMC/hydraulic approach. For both EMC and BWT models, using an increasing number n of events for calibration leads to narrower confidence intervals for the design ratios. It is crucial for design ratios to account for successive storm events in chronological order and to account for the maximum allowable flow to be transferred to the downstream WWTP.

description: In order, in the course of remediating the Emscher river system, to reinforce the ecological potential and the municipal landscaping benefits of the new bodies of water and to limit the costs for technical stormwater management measures, great importance has been attached to coping with stormwater via surface seepage. The potential of such measures depends on many different factors of influence. Consequently it makes sense to prepare a systematic classification for checking and evaluating the use of decentral stormwater management systems. When sufficient data is available, geographical information systems can support the planning of stormwater management measures. In the past, there has been a lack of across-the-board data and evaluations as well as of information on the peripheral conditions and factors resulting from the structure of individual built-up areas. This gap will be closed with the stormwater management information system. The data pool that has been built up contains statements on all the peripheral conditions and factors relevant for deciding on the type and potential of close-to-nature stormwater management methods. The stormwater management information system makes it possible for concepts covering complete catchment areas to be developed and their effectiveness to be evaluated via one single system.

description: We have developed a pore-scale numerical reactive transport model, based on
smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), that incorporates heterogeneous
precipitation/dissolution reactions. Lagrangian particle methods such as SPH have
several advantages for modeling pore-scale flow and transport: i) in a Lagrangian
framework there is no non-linear term in the momentum conservation equation, so that
SPH allows accurate solution of momentum dominated flows; ii) complicated physical
and chemical processes associated with realistic equations of state, changes in
solid boundaries due to dissolution or precipitation and chemical reactions are easy
to simulate. The SPH model was used to study the general effects of porosity, pore
scale heterogeneity, Damkohler numbers and Peclet numbers on reactive transport and
to estimate effective reaction coefficients and mass transfer coefficients. The
changes in porosity, conductivity and transport parameters resulting from mineral
precipitation were also investigated. Hysteresis in the reaction rate coefficient
and mass transport coefficient resulting from changing porosities, mass fluxes and
reactive surface areas was observed. Flow and transport with low Damkohler numbers
and high Peclet numbers was found to result in uniform precipitation. When the
Damkohler number was high and the Peclet number was low, precipitation occurred
mainly around the supersaturated solution injection areas.  The pore-scale model was
coupled with a continuum-scale reactive transport model and tested using data from a
mesoscale experimental investigation of calcite precipitation in a porous medium.
The results of the coupled pore-continuum modeling approach are compared to
simulation results from continuum-scale modeling alone with existing formation
damage models drawn from the literature, and to the experimental observations.
Recent Advances in Laplace Transform Analytic Element Method (LT-AEM) Theory and Application to Transient Groundwater Flow

description: Furman and Neuman (2003) proposed a Laplace Transform Analytic Element Method
(LT-AEM) for transient groundwater flow. LT-AEM solves the modified Helmholtz
equation in Laplace space and back-transforms it to the time domain using a Fourier
Series numerical inverse Laplace transform method (de Hoog, et.al., 1982). We have
extended the method so it can compute hydraulic head and flow velocity distributions
due to any two-dimensional combination and arrangement of point, line and circular
area sinks and sources, nested circular regions having different hydraulic
parameters, and circular regions with specified head or flux. The strengths of all
sinks and sources, and the specified head and flux values, can all vary with time in
an independent and arbitrary fashion. Initial conditions may vary from one circular
element to another. A solution is obtained by matching heads and normal fluxes inside
and outside each circular element. The effect of each circular element on flow is
expressed in terms of generalized Fourier series which converge rapidly (<10 terms)
in most cases. As there are more matching points than Fourier terms, the matching is
accomplished in Laplace space by least-squares. We illustrate the method by
calculating head and velocity as well as representative particle flow paths through a
distribution of circular inhomogeneities and transient sources and sinks.  The
results are compared to a MODFLOW simulation.  We are presently extending the method
to ellipses in two dimensions and spheroids in three dimensions.

A Pore-Level Approach to Petrophysical Interpretation of Well Logging Measurements
Creators: name: Gladkikh, Mikhail

Publisher: name: XVI International Conference on Computational Methods in Water Resources

description: An accurate description of water- or oil-bearing reservoirs and the assessment of
reserves strongly depend on a robust determination of their petrophysical
parameters, e.g., porosity, permeability and fluid distribution, reflecting fluid
type, content, and mobility. Downhole measurements provide means to formation
evaluation; however, they do not directly provide the petrophysical properties of
interest. To interpret well logging data, a range of empirical models are usually
employed. These empirical relationships, however, lack scientific basis and usually
represent generalizations of the observed trends. To provide a link between a
detailed description of the physical processes occurring at the pore scale and the
macroscopic properties of sedimentary rocks, a new pore-level approach to
petrophysical interpretation of logging measurements is suggested in this work.

A powerful means to create such a link is to develop quantitative relationships
between the petrophysical properties and the geologic processes involved in forming
the rocks.  Here we describe the use of simple but physically representative models
of the results of several rock-forming processes, e.g., sedimentation, cementation,
and the formation of authigenic clay minerals. The key feature of these models is
that they are geometrically determinate or precisely defined based on knowing the
location of every grain comprising the model rock and hence the morphology of the
pore space at the grain scale.  We outline a method for computing macroscopic
petrophysical properties using the proposed rock models. Unlike many approaches to
pore-level modeling, our approach introduces no adjustable parameters and thus can
be used to produce quantitative, a priori predictions of the rock macroscopic
behavior. These a priori predictions, in turn, allow for successfully inverting and
interpreting logging data to obtain petrophysical parameters of sedimentary rocks,
such as absolute and relative permeabilities as well as capillary pressure curves.
For example, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) logs contain information about grain
size, allowing for an accurate petrophysical interpretation by means of the pore-
level approach presented in this work.

The proposed methodology is also applied to real field data and the corresponding
interpretation results are included in this paper.

Platypus sicarius Wood, 1971: 250.
Taxonomy. we have examined the holotype and several paratypes of this species (NMNH). It has the pair of stout spines on ventrite 3 and the long, slender body and short vertical declivity characteristic of Myoplatypus. The paired ventral spines are in the original description of the species (Wood 1971); though he grouped it in Schedl’s bilobati, Wood neglected to transfer this species from Platypus along with the other bilobati that he put in Myoplatypus (Wood 1993). Only ca 2 mm long, it is the next smallest species in the genus. This species and M. petrovi lack the prominent extensions of the posterolateral angle that characterize most species of the genus, though the posterolateral angle is only weakly produced in M. quadricornis.

Distribution. Myoplatypus sicarius was known only from the type series, two low elevation collections from Pouteria (Sapotaceae) from Barinas, Venezuela. Peru and Ecuador are new country records and are the first range extensions of any tropical Myoplatypus species since their description. Only M. sicarius and M. petrovi have thus far been collected from South America.

description: Compacted bentonite is foreseen to be used as backfill and sealing material for
high-level radioactive waste disposal. Experimental evidence indicates that
bentonite exhibits two types of porous domains: macro-porous domain which contains
free water and micro-porous domain mainly occupied by interlayer and sorbed water.
Geochemical non-equilibrium between macro- and micro-domains calls for a fully
coupled reactive transport Dual Continuum Model (DCM) to describe water flow and
hydrochemistry of bentonites. Most DCM in the literature assume a lumped first-
order solute transfer term between both domains. However, it is well known that
such a term is not correct at all times. Here we present a formulation of flow and
reactive transport for a dual continuum with an n-th order solute transfer term,
derived from an approximation of an analytical solution for diffusion through a
thin slab. Such formulation which has been implemented in a finite element code
which solves both for the forward and inverse problem greatly improves the ability
and accuracy of DCM to simulate reactive transport in bentonites. Solute transfer
terms of different orders (n) are evaluated for several 1- and 2-D synthetic cases.
The order and the empirical coefficients of the solute transfer term are estimated
by inverse modelling. Optimum results for bentonite are achieved with n = 0.72 and
a scale term of 2.5.

description: Situated between the tidal river Hugli on the west, the overflowing swamps on the east, and having tidal creeks surrounding, Kolkata suffered chronically from drainage congestion and water logging, especially during monsoon period with large run-off. The city proper has a combined sewer disposal system laid in west to east direction as per natural slope of the basin, and the drainage is disposed through channels and canals to river Kulti, which carries the discharge to Bay of Bengal. The added areas lack proper central sewerage collection system by the municipality and sewage management is done by septic tank, surface drain, conduits laid underground and deposited to the canals and local ponds resulting in pollution and health hazards. Works have been done following reports of World Health Organization, Central and State Government Organizations. However, the results have not been totally satisfactory due to many factors on the face of tremendous force of unprecedented urbanization. Recently, increasing awareness about environment, pollution and sustainability has generated some actions taken up for better drainage solution in an integrated manner. The municipality and local government are introducing measures which are anticipated to minimise the adverse impacts on environment.

description: Pollution of surface waters by runoff from sealed areas is coming more into focus. As shown by several national and international studies, this part of wastewater cannot be neglegted. There are different strategies to reduce emission from urban runoff. One is to reduce the pollution load to rivers and lakes by centralised retention, purification tanks and centralised constructed wetlands. An alternative strategy is source control. The presented solution in this paper concerns the thousands of inlets in urban areas draining highly polluted runoff from roads and highways. This solution consists of a cartridge that can be inserted into standard inlets. Within 2 filtration steps, a settling volume and a adsorptive filtration, the inflowing runoff is treated. The results of the quality measurements are: - a mixture of special filter sand with an adsorptive material is suitable for different inorganic and organic compounds. - a high retention for suspended solids was found - a significant reduction for heavy metals (zinc and copper), o-phosphate, and PAC was observed.

Myoplatypus biprorus (Blandford): Wood 1993: 279.
Platypus querceus Wood, 1971: 251 new synonymy.
New record. “ COSTA RICA: Puntarenas Prov., Coto Brus, Est. Biol. Las Cruces, 1,100 m, 8° 47’ N 82° 57’ W [8.78, -82.95]; Eciton burchelli colony #1, sampling of stationary phase bivouac in a hollow log, 10 Apr 2002, A. Tishechkin” (1 male, LSAM) [Eciton burchelli is an army ant!].
Taxonomy. We have examined the male holotype and male and female paratypes of Platypus querceus (NMNH) and three male specimens from Mexico identified by K. E. Schedl as Platypus biprorus. we have also compared these specimens with syntypes of Platypus biprorus (NHMUK). From comparisons for both sexes, these are clearly the same species. Wood described M. querceus as new and as differing from M. biprorus in size and in small details of the male frons and of the elytral disc and declivity in both sexes, plus as differing in distribution. The small morphological differences he describes are typical of minor intraspecific variation.
As with P. sicarius, Wood overlooked transferring P. querceus to Myoplatypus when he erected the genus. In the original description, he characterizes M. querceus as being very similar to M. biprorus, so M. querceus clearly should have been incorporated in the same genus as M. biprorus (consistantly spelled “ biporus ” in Wood 1971, Wood 1993 and Wood & Bright 1992).
Distribution. Mexico to Panama: the widest range of any Myoplatypus. Specimens of M. querceus were collected in Panama (one series) and Costa Rica (two series) by S. L. Wood, at elevations ranging from 1300–1900 m. All were taken from oaks (Quercus). Specimens of M. biprorus have been collected in Guatemala and Mexico (http://www.barkbeetles.info/beetle_pix_tax_index.php#myoplatypus). As with M. querceus, the only host recorded for M. biprorus is Quercus.

description: The RIONED Foundation (www.riool.net) is the national not-for-profit knowledge centre on sewer systems and urban drainage in The Netherlands. RIONED contracted the University of Leuven and the Delft University of Technology to develop a database on the published results of research projects in the field of urban drainage. The database must give insight in the state of the art of the research in this field, the centres of knowledge on specific themes and must open up the literature to support desk studies. RIONED aims at avoiding double research and better accessibility of literature and centres of specific knowledge. The database will be accessible through the Internet and should be updated regularly to ensure the actuality of the database. To be able to use the database for programming research ongoing research projects should be added too. Therefore a plea is made for the development of a structure for collaboration of knowledge centres. Within this structure the database can be extended and kept up-to-date. Organisations interested to join the development of such a structure should give notice on the RIONED website www.riool.net by following the \342\200\230English\342\200\231-link.

description: SPIRIT is an interactive tool for predictive asset management. SPIRIT is a software plug-in for sewer management packages that uploads the actual state and environmental factors to a central databaseon the Internet. SPRIT downloads the prediction of the sewer condition in 5 respectively 10 years from the uploaded actual state. This interactivity improves the model by a self learning proces and results in a typical win-win situation. The RIONED Foundation is the national not-for-profit knowledge centre on sewer systems and urban drainage in The Netherlands. RIONED contracted Covalent ITS and Delta Pi to develop a roadmap towards an interactive tool for predictive asset management of sewer systems. Predictive asset management can become the next step towards costs- and risks- optimized planning of Operation and Maintenance (O&M) measures in sewer systems. Therefore, expert judgement and statistics have been combined to predict the probabilistic development of the condition of the sewer systems. The predictive asset management tool can become self learning as an interactive website extends the underlying database on a give and take basis. This paper describes the project called SPIRIT (Dutch acronym for software plug-in for interactive prediction of sewer condition) and recent results obtained.

description: Journalistische Medienorganisationen erleben seit der Jahrtausendwende ein
            Wechselbad der Gefühle. Auf die New Economy-Krise folgte Wachstum und
            Prosperität, bis schließlich die globale Finanzkrise ab 2008 die etablierten
            Geschäftsmodelle auf eine ernsthafte Probe stellte. Ein struktureller
            Wandlungsprozess durch digitale Technologien verschärft die Thematik. Aus einer
            demokratietheoretischen Perspektive drängt sich die Frage auf, ob etablierte
            journalistische Medienorganisationen angesichts aktueller Herausforderungen ihre
            Rolle als öffentliche Kommunikatoren noch adäquat bewältigen können. Dieser
            Beitrag analysiert daher exemplarisch strukturelle Schwächen und Probleme
            dominanter Medienorganisationsformen und beleuchtet als Konsequenz potenzielle
            Alternativen dazu. Diese Alternativen stärken (hypothetisch) den öffentlichen
            Kommunikationsprozess und gleichen mögliche Insuffizienzen in den etablierten
            Organisationsformen aus. Aufgrund der Erfolge stiftungsfinanzierter Organisationen
            am US-Medienmarkt, geht der Beitrag auf das Potenzial von philanthropisch- bzw.
            stiftungsfinanzierten Organisationen auf europäischer Ebene ein. Anhand
            ausgewählter Fallstudien wird dargestellt, welche Leistungen diese Organisationen
            für den öffentlichen Kommunikationsprozess bereits erbracht haben bzw. welche
            Leistungen in Anbetracht der strukturellen und organisatorischen Beschaffenheit
            möglich sind. Als qualitative Studie liefert der Beitrag Ansätze für medienpolitische
            Maßnahmen und Optionen für etablierte Medienorganisationen.
