Summary: A two-dimensional finite element seepage computer program for solving complicated seepage problems has been developed.
Subsurface Explorations in Alluvial Terrain by Surface Geophysical Methods: Final Report
Abstract: Field tests were conducted at several sites in Louisiana to determine the effectiveness of two geophysical tools for detecting and locating subsurface geological features in alluvial terrain.
Use of Borehole Geophysical Methods in Determining in Situ Bulk Densities and Water Contents in Unconsolidated Materials: Final Report
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess the capabilities of the WES geophysical downhole logging equipment for obtaining in situ bulk densities and water contents in unconsolidated materials, to establish a log analysis procedure applicable from one site to another, and to compare geophysically derived properties with those obtained from laboratory analysis of samples.
