Inverse Green element evaluation of source strength and concentration in groundwater contaminant transport
Inverse Green element evaluation of source strength and concentration in groundwater contaminant transport
Evaluating pollution sources from limited concentration data of their contaminant plumes in groundwater systems is an inverse problem that presents computational challenges because of its ill-posedness. In this work, the Green element method (GEM) is used to solve inverse contaminant transport problems in 2-D orthotropic homogeneous aquifers. The GEM discretization …
