The St. Lawrence Lowlands platform, Quebec, Canada, is a densely-populated area, heavily dependent on groundwater resources. In 1999, the Geological Survey of Canada initiated a large-scale hydrogeological assessment study over a... more
RIASSUNTO L'eccessivo sfruttamento degli acquiferi carsici del Salento ha prodotto, da tempo, l'insorgere del fenomeno della salsificazione delle acque di falda. L'uso di acque salmastre per l'irriga-zione delle... more
Analytical investigation was conducted on the transient natural convection flow past an oscillating infinite vertical plate in present of magnetic field and radiative heat transfer. The classical solution of this problem for impulsively... more
Summary Simplified 2 D finite element fracture models have been presented in this paper. The model handles matrix-fracture, fracture- fracture, and matrix-matrix connections. Finite element method is used for 2 D single-phase flow in... more
We describe here a new experimental device developed for the study of a combustion front propagation in a reactive medium: crushed oil shale (500 to 1000 µm). We are interested in the propagation of a front supplied by air in co-current.... more
In this presentation we analyzed and compared the software packages Eclipse 2004A, NGT BOS v.2.1 and ANSYS CFX v11.0 for the task of the oil and gas flows simulation in a porous medium. We identified the common features, examined the... more
A review of the developments in the field of heat transfer in non-Newtonian fluids flowing through porous media
The present work analyzes the effects of a solid boundary and the inertial forces on flow and heat transfer in porous media. Specific attention is given to flow through a porous medium in the vicinity of an impermeable boundary. The local... more
