It is widely accepted that spring hydrographs are an effective tool for evaluating the internal structure of karst aquifers because they depict the response of the whole aquifer to recharge events. The spring hydrograph is affected by various factors suc...

In multi-scale topology optimization methods, the analysis encompasses two distinct scales: the macro-scale and the micro-scale. The macro-scale refers to the overall size and dimensions of the structural domain being studied, while the micro-scale perta...
