OIL INFILTRATION INTO SOIL: PROBLEMS OF THE GEORGIAN SECTION OF TRACECA AND THEIR NUMERICAL TREATMENT

摘要

Spreading of spilled oil in soil is investigated regarding accidents on railway routes and damage of pipelines along the Georgian section of the Transport Corridor Europe-Caucasus-Asia (TRACECA). Processes controlling the penetration of oil into soil are studied applying analytical and numerical models of oil infiltration. Some analytical solutions are given and analyzed. Results of numerical calculations for conditions found along TRACECA are presented.
