A Model to Determine the Location of Heavy Metal Contaminant Source

Abstract:

We conducted a tracing model which was based on the process of dopamine diffusion in human brains, taking the diffusion coefficients and absorption coefficients into consideration. By combining with the spatial distributions of heavy metals plotted by ArcGIS, we can determine the contaminant sources and the results have high accuracy. Besides, we made an improvement in consideration of different transmission modes of heavy metal contaminants and the corresponding dilution factors.
