This book highlights several methods and quantitative implementations of both probabilistic and fuzzy-based approaches to uncertainty quantification and uncertainty propagation through environmental subsurface pollution models with uncertain input parameters. The book focuses on methods as well as applications in hydrogeology, soil hydrology, groundwater contamination, and related areas (e.g., corrosion of nuclear waste canisters). The methods are illustrated for a broad spectrum of models, from non-differential I/O models to complex PDE solvers, including a novel 3D quasi-analytical model of contaminant transport, and a site-specific computer model of dissolved contaminant migration from a DNAPL (Dense Non Aqueous Phase Liquid) pollution source.

Statistical Approaches to Unsaturated Capillary Flows in Pores, Joints, Soils and Other Heterogeneous Media focuses on physical models and on statistical approaches to air/water flow in systems of pores and capillary tubes, in smooth or rough planar joints, and in heterogeneous porous media based on properly upscaled equations.
