The company was yesterday told by the US authorities that it would be allowed to keep the experimental cap on its blown-out well for a fourth successive day despite signs of seepage after it promised to closely monitor the surrounding seabed to head off a potentially devastating new leak of oil and gas.
Sand allows a certain amount of controlled seepage, and it is easily bulldozed from the base of the levee, even when wet, to increase the levee's height; indeed, by Friday morning about twenty-five bulldozers would be at work pushing sand from the bottom of the levee to the top along the length of the Sny.
We show that the heterogeneity in the flow domain is a key factor controlling seepage rates, since it causes channelized flow and local ponding in the unsaturated flow field.
The problem is that there's so little time, and art - especially poetry - is a matter of seepage, of slow accumulation; it doesn't warn, it laments.
It does not smear, and it prevents seepage that would blur the image.
In adapting diaper technology for irrigation, engineers had to consider that hydrogels in a diaper must absorb liquid once and hold it without seepage, while in soil, they must hold and slowly release water thousands of times over years or decades.
Finally, the percentage increase in arrested seepage is calculated and it is found that carbon nano tube has behaved better.
To solve groundwater seepage and drainage problems, it is desirable to have a general differential equation, and Laplace's equation, which is a familiar equation occurring in nearly all branches of applied mathematics, applies.
The interaction between dam and reservoir model has been made in such a manner, so that it can transmit the hydro dynamic force of reservoir water to the dam model without allowing any seepage of water across it.
