A comparative review of upscaling methods for solute transport in heterogeneous porous media

CC Frippiat, AE Holeyman - Journal of Hydrology, 2008 - Elsevier
The classical Fickian model for solute transport in porous media cannot correctly predict the
spreading (the dispersion) of contaminant plumes in a heterogeneous subsurface unless its …

What controls the apparent timescale of solute mass transfer in aquifers and soils? A comparison of experimental results

R Haggerty, CF Harvey… - Water Resources …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library

A streamline approach for integrating transient pressure data into high-resolution reservoir models

KN Kulkarni, A Datta-Gupta, DW Vasco - Spe Journal, 2001 - onepetro.org
We generalize the streamline approach to transient pressure applications by introducing a"
diffusive" time of flight along streamlines. This allows us to define drainage areas or volumes …

Asymptotic solutions for solute transport: A formalism for tracer tomography

DW Vasco, A Datta‐Gupta - Water Resources Research, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
An asymptotic approach to the solution of the transport equation, in the limit of rapid spatial
and temporal variation, produces an extremely efficient formalism for the inversion of tracer …

Effects of compound-specific dilution on transient transport and solute breakthrough: A pore-scale analysis
