Advanced Groundwater Modeling
This five-day hands-on training course consists of two parts. During the first part, the participant learns the basic concepts of the software, and the theoretical background of different modeling approaches is explained.
The major topics are
- Designing the geometry of 2D and 3D models
- Mesh generation
- Import and export of GIS and CAD data
- Setting up flow models with confined and unconfined aquifers
- Setting up mass- transport models
The second part of the training aims at providing skills for advanced modeling topics. Depending on the particular needs of the group of participants, a selection of the following topics is offered:
- Unsaturated flow modeling
- Density-dependent flow modeling
- Heat transport modeling (geothermal energy systems)
- Introduction to IFM programming
- Fracture modeling
- Multi-component transport and chemical reactions
Other topics can be offered on prior request.
Prior experience related to groundwater modeling, hydro(geo)logy or a related field is recommended.
The price for the training (incl. printed course material, lunch and beverages during the course) is € 1,500 (+VAT) per participant.
