Physical and mathematical modelling, numerical methods – method of finite
elements, method of finite differences. Types of hydrogeological models and
applications. Groundwater flow modelling in saturated and unsaturated zone.
Conceptual model, grid design, boundary conditions, initial conditions. Steady
state and transient models data needs. Model calibration, inverse modelling.
Solutes transport modelling, advective – dispersive transport governing
equation with reactions. Uncertainty analysis. Applications of modelling
approaches in risk analysis.
