'''T100. Applications and Advances in Groundwater Flow Modeling'''. Groundwater flow models are an essential tool for addressing a number of hydrogeological and societal issues. This includes: 1) short and long- term water supply on a local and regional scale, 2) investigation of the fate and transport of both point and nonpoint contaminant sources, and 3) the role that groundwater plays in an integrated system, including its interactions with surface water, atmospheric systems, ecological systems, and anthropogenic activities. In recent years, advances in modeling and computing have greatly increased the number of options available to modelers, not only in terms of the type of model code (finite-difference, finite-element, analytic element) but also the tools to interact with the models (graphical user interfaces, scripting via FloPy). As a result, larger and more complex models are possible, and the process of updating and archiving these models can be more readily streamlined and even automated via scripting. A number of new visualization options using GIS tools are also available to communicate complicated model results to the public in 2D, 3D, and animated formats.

    T100. Applications and Advances in Groundwater Flow Modeling. Groundwater flow models are an essential tool for addressing a number of hydrogeological and societal issues. This includes: 1) short and long- term water supply on a local and regional scale, 2) investigation of the fate and transport of both point and nonpoint contaminant sources, and 3) the role that groundwater plays in an integrated system, including its interactions with surface water, atmospheric systems, ecological systems, and anthropogenic activities.

Strack offers short course on AEM, October 24-27, 2018, Nelson, Wisconsin

The short course will be focused on the use of elementary analytic solutions and models created with the Analytic Element Method for solving groundwater flow problems. The approach to solving groundwater problems, regardless of their complexity, is greatly enhanced in terms of both insight and efficiency by carrying out preliminary computations. Such computations may consist of relatively simple solutions amenable to implementation, either in inter-active computer programs such as MATLAB, or in dedicated analytic element computer programs such as SLAEM or MLAEM.
