1. 21. The temporal impacts of climate condition on groundwater flow using numerical transient modelling

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Malieha Zannat Rahman; [2020]
   Keywords : Climatic Condition; Groundwater Flow; Transient-State Modelling; Numerical Modeling; Krycklan Catchment; Visual MODFLOW Flex;

   Abstract : Compiling comprehensive understanding of all the available natural resources is an important task which should be carried out as it holds a crucial role for the next generation’s lives. In particular, groundwater is considered as one of the vital resources in providing essential drinking water. READ MORE

3. 22. Modelling of a compensated foundation in GeoSuite Settlement

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : Linnea Hermansson; Rebecka Söderberg; [2020]
   Keywords : Compensated foundations; Load compensation; Lightweight material; Clay; Settlements; Creep; GeoSuite Settlement; Kompensationsgrundläggning; Lastkompensation; Lättfyllning; Lera; Sättningar; Krypning; GeoSuite Sättning;

   Abstract : The world today is constantly growing, creating a need of new roads and residential areas. New constructions lead to an increased load onto the soil, which can result in deformations when the soil layers underneath are compressed. To reduce the increased load on the soil, a compensated foundation can be used. READ MORE

4. 23. Groundwater flow modelling to address hydrogeological response of a contaminated site to remediation measures at Hjortsberga, southern Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Adam Johansson; [2020]
   Keywords : PCP; Groundwater modelling; Permeable reactive barrier; Hjortsberga sawmill; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a chlorinated aromatic compound that was commonly used for treatment of wood against microbial degradation before it got banned in the 1970s. Due to its solubility in water, PCP is a common groundwater contaminant around old sawmills, for example near Hjortsberga in southern Sweden where this study was performed.. READ MORE

5. 24. Evaluating locations for subsurface dams : Case study on Storsudret, Gotland

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Karl Engström; Maximilian Skoglund Lartell; [2020]
   Keywords : Subsurface dams; MIKE SHE; groundwater; groundwater modelling; water resource management; resistivity measurements; hydrogeology; Grundvattendammar; MIKE SHE; grundvatten; hydrogeologi; grundvattenmodellering; vattenresurshantering; resistivitetsmätningar; hydrogeologi;

   Abstract : Due to precipitation poor winters and springs and over-exploitation of groundwater reserves during the summer months as a consequence of tourism, the island of Gotland has experienced fresh water shortages during recent years which has led to harsh restrictions in the use of municipal water. In order to find a solution to the islands fresh water problems, the region of Gotland and the Swedish Environmental Institute (IVL) have initiated a project in which the southernmost part of Gotland, Storsudret, will be used as a test site for new methods of sustainable freshwater storage and extraction methods.

6. 25. The Impact of Boundary Condition on Groundwater Flow : Topography v/s Recharge Controlled

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Harshitha Sridhar; [2020]
   Keywords : Regional Groundwater flow; topography boundary condition; recharge boundary condition; 3D numerical modelling; groundwater flux profile; Regionalt grundvattenflöde; topografi gränsvillkor; laddningsgränsvillkor; numerisk 3D-modellering; grundvattenflödesprofil;

   Abstract : Groundwater interactions at a regional scale are of great importance to characterize subsurface flow processes. Extensive researches have been conducted previously to determine the main factors controlling the regional implications on groundwater flux circulation. READ MORE
