PRE-CONFERENCE TRAINING ON GROUNDWATER MODELLING USING FEFLOW
OVERVIEW
On the occasion of ninth International Groundwater Conference 2022 on Effective management of (sub) Surface water resources in arid and semi-arid regions, a 2-day preconference workshop on Groundwater modelling using FEFLOW is being jointly organized by Department of Hydrology, IIT Roorkee and DHI (India).
This 2-day, hands-on course gives you an introduction to FEFLOW and its capabilities for modelling of groundwater. The aim is to enable you to create, edit and run basic groundwater models and to analyse and present the simulation results. The course also covers details of 2D, and 3D flow and mass transport.
DHI EXPERT AND TRAINER
Key Speaker: Dr. Carlos Rivera Villarreyes
Dr. Carlos Rivera Villarreyes works as Global Product Specialist for FEFLOW at DHI Germany. He has profound knowledge of groundwater and unsaturated zone modelling as well as parameter estimation and uncertainty analysis (e.g., with PEST), all these in the context of mining applications, among others. He has carried several groundwater modellings projects and trained professionals in groundwater modelling around the globe.
