Modeling rate-limited processes along non-uniform surfaces via the method of volume averaging

Creator:

Lambert, Adam

Abstract:

Quantification of macroscale transport phenomenon in microfluidic systems is important to many science and engineering disciplines. In part, this is because fully resolved solutions to microscale balance laws over large domains are out of reach with current computational technology. Additionally, engineers are most often interested in some upscaled quantity and...

Experimental and numerical analysis of transport in saturated heterogeneous media

Creator:

Harrington, Stephanie J.

Abstract:

The conventional advection-dispersion equation cannot adequately describe all processes driving solute transport in heterogeneous systems. This dissertation focuses on the individual influences of both chemical (Chapter 2) and physical processes (Chapters 3 and 4) which affect solute transport. In Chapter 2 we analyzed uranium transport in natural sediment using the...
