Monte Carlo simulations of subsurface flow and contaminant transport of a non-reactive solute plume by steady-state flow with a uniform velocity were performed in a two-dimensional synthetic heterogeneous porous media whose hydraulic conductivity is non-stationary and described by multiscale fractional Brownian motion. Analysis of the flow and transport results indicates that the longitudinal velocity variance is nearly constant in the longitudinal direction while in the transverse direction it assumes a parabolic shape. The velocity variance is maximum at the impervious boundaries and decreases in transverse direction with distance from the boundaries reaching the minimum value at the domain center. We observe that the particle displacement covariance is anomalous or non-Fickian at all times t in the dispersion process irrespective of the Hurst exponent H and grows temporally faster than linearly., Pres. at Fractal 2000, "Complexity and Fractals in the Sciences", 6th International Multidisciplinary Conference, 16-19 Apr 2000, Singapore. --Original contains color plates: All DTIC reproductions will be in black and white.

The primary purpose of this research is to investigate non-linear and chaotic behaviour of water in a pipeline at the transition region from laminar to turbulent flow. Turbulence was generated in the flow by the use of an orifice plate which generated coherent vortices and subsequent break-down into turbulence, downstream of the orifice. The flow regime was pulsatile. This was decided specifically to obtain better control of the experimental apparatus, better control of the frequency of vortices shedding from the orifice, and because of its wider range of practical applications discussed in section 1.3. The mechanism of vortex breakdown has been addressed many times over the past century. The process by which vortices interact and degenerate is essentially non- inear. New techniques from the field of non-linear dynamics have emerged which can yield some quantitative information about the complexity of non-linear phenomena. This thesis aims to test some of these techniques, together with more traditional methods, on the experimental time series data obtained from axisymmetric vortex breakdown of a pulsed flow at a pipe orifice. An experimental rig was designed and constructed in the Civil Engineering Department, at the University of Glasgow, to produce, accurately controllable, pulsed flows within a pipe system at an orifice plate. The apparatus was designed to allow a range of parameters to be varied over the course of the investigation. Computer algorithms were written by the author to analyse the resulting data, obtained from Laser Doppler Anemometry readings. Flow visualisation techniques were also used to give a qualitative understanding of the system. Evidence was found for the development of initially axisymmetric pulsed vortex flows to a relatively low dimensional chaotic state prior to breaking down to a more complex turbulent state. The flow complexity was probed by investigating the dynamics of phase space attractors reconstructed from time series taken at
