Cone penetration test in a virtual calibration chamber 

    Butlanska, Joanna (Date of defense: 2014-07-21)

    Cone penetration test (CPT) is a fast and reliable site investigation tool for exploring soils and soft ground. While the interpretation of the test results in clay has advanced considerably from a theoretical and numerical ...

    Mechanism and stochastic dynamics of transport in Darcy-scale heterogeneous porous media 

    Comolli, Alessandro (Date of defense: 2018-06-14)

    Solute transport in heterogeneous porous media in general exhibits anomalous behaviors, in the sense that it is characterized by features that cannot be explained in terms of traditional models based on the advection-dispersion ...
