Seasonal variability of groundwater level effects on the growth of Carex cinerascens in lake wetlands

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Wenjuan Feng

Groundwater level is crucial for wetland plant growth and reproduction, but the extent of its effect on plant growth can vary along with changed precipitation and temperature at different seasons. In this context, we investigated the effect of two groundwa ...

Dynamics of fracturing saturated porous media and self-organization of rupture

Carlo Peruzzo, Enrico Milanese

Analytical solutions and a vast majority of numerical ones for fracture propagation in saturated porous media yield smooth behavior while experiments, field observations and a few numerical solutions reveal stepwise crack advancement and pressure oscillati ...

Effects of groundwater on desalinization in coastal reservoir and adjacent aquifer

David Andrew Barry

Coastal reservoir provides the additional storage capacity of freshwater in coastal zone which greatly alleviate the water shortage in stressed areas, and the salinization of reservoir water degrade the utility of coastal reservoir. Salinization may result ...

Stochastic analysis of groundwater temperature timeseries for characterizing check dams efficiency: case study on a Managed Aquifer Recharge site (Veneto, Italy)

Andrea Rinaldo

In order to investigate hydraulic connections between the Brenta river and its groundwater aquifers, this work performs a stochastic analysis of measured groundwater temperature timeseries. The aim is to compare their trends to verify their mutual influenc ...

Experimental Study at Prototype Scale of a Self-priming Free-Surface Siphon

Giovanni De Cesare, Paloma Furlan

This study is within the frame of the construction of the rail link between Geneva Cornavin station, Eaux-Vives station and Annemasse (CEVA). The project area is located at a cut-and-cover tunnel built by slurry walls located in the alluvium of the Foron R ...

Hydro-chemo-mechanical behavior of a sand/bentonite mixture upon wetting paths

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Donatella Manca

Sand/bentonite (S/B) mixtures are considered as backfilling materials for nuclear waste storage. The paper presents an experimental campaign that was carried out to investigate the swelling behavior of a S/B mixture, under different hydro-chemo-mechanical ...

Permeability and capillary effects in a channel-wise non-crimp fabric

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros, Damiano Salvatori

Flow properties are investigated for a non-crimp glass fabric with large meso-channels designed for high-permeability, as compared to glass twill woven fabric. Saturated and unsaturated permeability are measured through in-plane, unidirectional, constant-p ...

Influence of density of large stems on the blocking probability at spillways

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Paloma Furlan

Dam safety is strongly linked to the probability of occurrence of large floods. Floods can transport large wood (LW) into reservoirs and towards water release structures as spillways. Due to blocking and clogging, LW may significantly influence the dischar ...
