Abstract

In the second paper in the series, the boundary element method for analysing contaminant migration problems in homogeneous porous medium developed in the earlier paper by Leo and Booker is extended to the non-homogeneous porous media. This extension enables potential application in practical design of landfills and in soils which cannot be idealized as being homogeneous. Conventional boundary element techniques are used to deal with non-homogeneity in that the non-homogeneous domain is approximated by a finite number of homogeneous zones. The method may be used, for instance, in assessing the effectiveness of linear configuration surrounding waste repositories.
