A number of investigators have proposed equations to predict
the permeability of porous media. Most of their equations are based
on the distributions of the sizes of the various contributing pores in
the medium. Presently the pore size distributions of agricultural
soils are most commonly obtained from soil water release...
A mathematical model simulating mass transport of chemicals
in saturated porous medium is given in four parts. Included in the
development is the physical phenomenon of adsorption of molecules
of chemicals on the surrounding walls of the porous medium. The
four main areas of study are:
(1) Simple one dimensional...
The work reported herein was performed under the annual allotment from the Office of Water Resources Research to the Oregon Water Resources Research Institute. Funds were available over a three year period, but due to difficulty in acquiring graduate students, the total time spent on the project was only 21...
