| Abstract | The hydraulic properties of hard rock and karst formations are typically highly heterogeneous. Quantification of the groundwater flow in these media is a complicated process with numerous uncertainties. There are several approaches to overcome this problem. Stochastic simulation is one of the promising approaches for quantification of the intrinsic uncertainty in karst formations. In the present research, the sequential indicator simulation was used as a tool for the simulation of the hydrogeological and geotechnical properties of a karstic formation at the Karun IV dam site, Iran. In this regard, two variables of interest, RQD and Lugeon, were considered as criteria for the development of karst. One hundred realizations of these variables were produced and then combined to obtain an expected value and the probability of exceeding a threshold value for each cell. The results showed a weak negative correlation between the expected values of RQD and Lugeon. Also, it was determined that the geologic structures (i.e., faults) and lithology play an important role in the development of karst in the study area. A decrease in the simulated values of Lugeon was observed with increasing depth of karstic layers and the distance from faults. The results of this study helped to overcome the intrinsic uncertainty in karst media and to present a conceptual model of karst development. This approach can be applied in other dams for the evaluation of risk and uncertainty of hydrogeological parameters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
