Using particle tracking as a tool sustainable bank infiltration techniques: a case study in an alluvial area

This study was inspired by the Klang Valley water crisis, for which bank infiltration (BI) is considered a potential solution. This paper presents a case study of the BI techniques, which evaluates the effects of groundwater pumping and BI operation on the installation of wells. This study also dete...
