Subject syllabus

Definition of model and purpose of modelling, types of models (physical
models, mathematical models – deterministic and stochastic models). Numerical
methods – FEM, FDM, governing equations of hydrogeological processes.
Groundwater flow modelling. Conceptual model and grid design. Boundary and
initial conditions, sources snd sinks. Special needs for transient
simulations.
Inverse modelling. Contaminant transport modelling, transport processes,
hydrochemical models. Quality assurance of models – sensitivity analysis,
calibration, verification. Practical applications on typical hydrogeological
problems.
