Groundwater Flow Modeling Using MODFLOW in Arabic

Description

Master groundwater flow modelling from the ground up using the MODFLOW code and GMS software. You will learn the fundamentals of groundwater in general and groundwater modelling in particular during this course. To obtain the most advantage, we will work with real data from an actual project in Dubai.

No matter how much groundwater knowledge or expertise you have. Most importantly, you must be willing to learn about groundwater modelling.

During our  course we will discuss interesting topics as follow:

• Basics of groundwater

• Theoretical background of groundwater flow

• Aquifer types

• Groundwater flow equation

• Concept and steps of groundwater modelling

• Creating 2D and 3D Modelling

• Creating Models using grid approach and conceptual approach

• Model calibration using zonation and pilot points techniques

Also, during our course we will use and practice on many software like:

• Groundwater Modeling System (GMS): for groundwater flow modeling simulation

• ArcGIS: for building the model conceptually, extract shape files and extract raster

• Excel: to solve finite difference manually, to read spreadsheets and extract CSV files

• Global Mapper: for extracting Digital Elevation Models (DEM), rectify images and convert projection

By the end, you will not only be able to create groundwater models by following the steps in this course, but you will also be able to understand the concept of groundwater modelling and how the MODFLOW code uses finite difference to solve the groundwater flow equation, as well as how to judge whether your model is correct or not and how to find and fix problems on your own.

So, let's start :)
