A three-dimensional groundwater flow model was developed to characterize groundwater resources the uppermost principal aquifers in the Williston structural basin in parts of Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota in the United States and of Manitoba and Saskatchewan in Canada as part of a detailed assessment of the groundwater availability of the area. The uppermost principal aquifers are comprised of the glacial, lower Tertiary, and Upper Cretaceous aquifer systems. The model was developed as a...

A local and a regional groundwater-flow model were used to evaluate the effects of withdrawals in Cumberland County and vicinity in New Jersey. The local model simulated monthly groundwater withdrawals from the unconfined Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer system and surface-water diversions from 1997 to 2008. The regional model simulated average annual groundwater withdrawals from the confined Piney Point aquifer system from 2004 to 2008. The local model was used to simulate conditions that represent average monthly, full-allocation,...

A soil-water balance model (SWB) was developed to estimate recharge to the groundwater flow system in Florida and parts of Georgia, Alabama, and South Carolina for the period 1995 through 2010. The model was not calibrated; however, various water budget components from the model output compared reasonably well with other estimates. The model was used to estimate recharge to the groundwater flow system as part of a preliminary water budget exercise described in the associated...

This dataset was created and used to complete the doctoral thesis titled 'How best can ground source heat pumps be deployed in a public sector context?' This consists of: - a dynamic energy simulation model of a residential tower block. - horizontal and vertical ground loop designs to meet the energy demand of the residential tower block using ground source heat pumps. Virtual Environment (VE) software was used to create the dynamic energy simulation model....

A steady-state, two-dimensional, heat transport model was created using SUTRA, version 2.2, modified to allow for spatially-variable thermal properties and density and viscosity variation with temperature. The model includes physical and hydrologic characteristics of the Bemidji Research Site, a crude-oil contaminated research site, along with previous-published parameter values for physical, chemical and biodegradation properties. Pipeline infrastructure temperatures were calibrated using a background model and measured average annual temperatures. The model was constructed to test whether...

A MODFLOW-NWT groundwater flow model was developed to simulate groundwater movement in the area around Anvil Lake (Vilas County, Wisconsin) and groundwater inputs and outputs from the lake from 1980 to 2014. Surface-water hydrology was simulated using the lake package. The MODFLOW model was first calibrated for steady-state conditions, or "average" conditions corresponding to January 1, 1980, to December 31, 2014 to estimate spatial hydrogeologic properties. Following the steady-state calibration, the model was applied in...

Retrospective analysis of 3 patient cases who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust was performed to generate computational models suitable for electromechanical finite element simulations. Therefore, images were segmented using a statistics-based approach and the smoothed voxel representations were discretized into high-resolution tetrahedral finite element meshes. The complex atrial myofiber architectures were estimated on the endo- and epicardial surfaces according to anatomical and morphological data utilizing a Laplace-based...

A two-dimensional, groundwater flow model (VS2DI) was developed to examine groundwater flow near wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region of North Dakota. Four model domains were created, the first three are hypothetical or idealized and do not relate to an actual location. The fourth domain is a cross section designed to replicate results presented in Winter and Carr (1980). The model was used to evaluate conditions suitable for groundwater to flow from a wetland to...
