The unsaturated hydraulic characteristics of waste soil are an essential basis for predicting and evaluating leachate migration and distribution in landfills. The saturated water content and permeability coefficient were measured, and a multi-step drainage monitoring experiment was conducted indoors at different dry densities, particle sizes, and degradation ages. Single and dual permeability models were adopted to determine the unsaturated hydraulic characteristic parameters of waste. Results show that dry density and particle size are the key factors affecting the saturated water content and permeability of waste. A single degradation age has little effect on it. Respectively, the saturated water content has a linear relationship with dry density, and permeability has an exponential relationship with dry density under limited experimental data. The overflow numerical inversion method can accurately obtain the unsaturated hydraulic characteristic parameters of wastes and summarizes the values of the unsaturated hydraulic characteristic parameters of wastes with different attributes in the literature and the results of this study. The dual-permeability model performed significantly better than the single-permeability model for water movement, suggesting that a dual-domain description is required for water flow in landfills.

Abstract Reliability of the natural gas pipeline network is related to security of gas supply directly. According to the different required functions of the natural gas pipeline network, its reliability is divided into three aspects, namely mechanical reliability, hydraulic reliability, and gas supply reliability. However, most of the previous studies confused the definitions of the hydraulic reliability and gas supply reliability. Moreover, the uncertainty in the process of supplying natural gas to the targeted market and the hydraulic characteristic of the natural gas pipeline network are often ignored. Therefore, a methodology to assess hydraulic reliability and gas supply reliability of the natural gas pipeline network is developed in the study, and the uncertainty and hydraulic characteristic of the natural gas pipeline network are both considered. The methodology consists of four parts: establishment of the indicator system, calculation of the gas supply, prediction of the market demand, and assessment of the hydraulic reliability and gas supply reliability. Moreover, a case study is applied to confirm the feasibility of the methodology, and the reliability evaluation results provide a comprehensive picture about the abilities of the natural gas pipeline network to perform the specified gas supply function and satisfy consumers' demand, respectively. Furthermore, a comparison between these two types of reliability is presented. The results indicate that the natural gas pipeline network may not be able to meet the market demand even if the system completes the required gas supply tasks due to the impact of the market demand uncertainty.
