So you have a leaky system.
So it was a leaky system, riddled with inefficiencies, but a lot of people made a living through it.
Anyway, back to these fraudsters, who are the least costly element of a leaky system, but nevertheless transfix the political imagination as though they were masterminds of cunning and audacity, whose long game were to destroy the fabric of society altogether.
This paper presents a methodology for determining the vertical hydraulic conductivity (Kv) of an aquitard, in a multilayered leaky system, based on the harmonic analysis of arbitrary water-level fluctuations in aquifers.
That's necessary to determine which gas drilling company, for example, might have a particularly leaky system.
The proposed methods are validated by a synthetic case study and are then applied to the Westbourne and Birkhead aquitards, which form part of a five-layered leaky system in the Eromanga Basin, Australia.
There's always something that needs fixing: a leaky septic system, low water pressure, garbage issues.
Backcountry.com, an online outdoor gear and clothing retailer in Park City, Utah, for instance, introduced its own feedback service earlier this year, and within months, customer comments about a product prompted the vendor to drop a leaky hydration system from a popular manufacturer.
However, the groundwater flow induced by pumping in a leaky aquifer system is often assumed that the total stress of aquifer maintains constant all the time and the mechanical behavior of the aquitard formation is negligible.
Therefore, this paper devotes to the investigation of the effect of aquitard bending on the drawdown distribution in a leaky aquifer system, which is obviously of interest in groundwater hydrology.
Ethiopia is one of the poorest and most aid-dependent countries in the world, and has come under the scrutiny by human rights groups, the American government and the World Bank for what has been described as a leaky aid system, with accusations of governmental manipulation of food aid to reward political allies.
