    Notes: This paper describes a systematic and straightforward method for the estimation of velocity components in three dimensions from hydraulic head data. Groups of four measurement points are connected to form tetrahedrons, and a linear interpolation scheme is used to obtain a head gradient estimate for each tetrahedron. Application of Darcy's law then yields the desired velocity component values. A sample calculation and comparison between this method and a two-dimensional approach are also included.

    Notes: This paper presents a systematic method for approximating hydraulic head gradients from randomly located hydraulic head values. The locations of these head values are connected by straight lines to form a network of triangles. Over each triangle, a plane surface is used to approximate the head values; the gradient of this plane is then taken as the hydraulic gradient. Given values of porosity and hydraulic conductivity, the fluid velocity can be calculated from Darcy's Law.

    Notes: A hydraulic control optimization model is applied to the conceptual and implementation analysis of a ground-water remediation system in coastal New Jersey. The site is modeled using a distributed parameter finite-difference model containing 36,000 nodes within five layers. The conceptual problem is to determine the feasibility of producing a capture zone which encompasses the entire existing plume while recharging all extracted water within property boundaries in such a way that the recharged water satisfies criteria on its fate. The conceptual analysis problem is formulated as a linear program in which the total extraction pumping is minimized, and requirements are placed on hydraulic heads and gradients in both horizontal and vertical directions. A requirement is also made that all extracted water be recharged to the subsurface. The model is used for determination of the feasibility of the remediation concept. Details of constructing constraints for a large-scale formulation are presented. The concept of constraint calibration, using particle tracking to insure that constraints are producing desired results, is introduced and demonstrated. The optimization formulation is used for detailed implementation analysis of the remediation system. A number of techniques for modifying elements of the conceptual model results, such as unrealistically small pump rates, are described. The optimization approach is found to be useful for determining the feasibility of the remedial strategy at this site and for producing results which can be used as a starting point for detailed analysis of the remediation strategy.

    Notes: The engine of a field vehicle can easily be used as an air pump by inserting a commercially manufactured check valve into a spark-plug socket. Small-diameter piezometers can be pumped with compressed air from this source. With sufficient air-line submergence, the air lift method can be used to pump 1-inch diameter piezometers where the pumping lift is less than 70 feet and 1.25-inch diameter piezometers where the pumping lift is less than 50 feet. In cases where this method will not work, some of the water contained in a piezometer can be pumped out by pressurizing the piezometer if the formation transmissivity is low and the pumping lift is not excessive. The maximum pumping lift is a function of the rate at which pressure in the piezometer is increased and the rate at which water flows into the formation with increasing head in the piezometer.The engine air pump is useful in developing piezometers, flushing out stagnant water before taking water samples, obtaining water samples, and creating head differences to initiate slug tests.

    Notes: A non-linear distribution of vertical displacement versus aquifer depth is calculated in the case of a partially penertrating well. For a fully penetrating well, however, a linear distribution is observed. The solution exhibits a vertically uniform horizontal displacement in the case of a fully penetrating well and, for a partially penetrating well, the maximum horizontal displacement occurs at the elevation of the well bottom.

    Notes: The integral equations which arise from application of the Galerkin-finite element scheme to the convective diffusion equation are examined to illustrate how this method represents differential equations. The formulae obtained are effectively spatial averages of standard finite difference equations written at a node. The truncation error in the finite element solution at a node is obtained for various nodal configurations.

    Notes: In solving the Buckley-Leverett problem, the use of higher order Hermitian polynomials at the frontal location and lower order ones elsewhere in the solution domain yields an enhanced frontal definition. This improvement is achieved without a significant increase in computational effort.

    Notes: A potentially powerful numerical method for solving certain boundary value problems is developed. The method combines the simplicity of orthogonal collocation with the versatility of deformable finite elements. Bicubic Hermite elements with four degrees-of-freedom per node are used. A subparametric transformation permits the precise positioning of the collocation points for maximum accuracy as well as a unique representation of irregular boundaries. It is shown that by taking advantage of the boundary conditions, a minimum number of collocation points can be used.The method is particularly suitable for potential and mass transport problems where a C1 continuous solution is required. In contrast to the Galerkin approach, it does not require the evaluation of basis function products and numerical integration, also the coefficient matrix contains only about half as many non-zero terms as the corresponding Galerkin coefficient matrix. This results in approximately a 90 per cent reduction in formulation and a 50 per cent reduction in solution operation, as compared with the Galerkin finite element method, for this type of problem. Examples show that the accuracy of the collocation solution is as good as or better than that of the Galerkin solution.
