Open webinar: Transient Modflow 6 modeling of a infraestructure tunnel with quadtree refinement

Modeling the impact of infrastructure projects as tunnels to the groundwater flow regime has its own challenges. Criteria to design the spatial and temporal discretization could impact the whole modeling work, the precision of the results or even the suitability of the model to answer questions about the tunnel/aquifer interaction. We have developed and applied case for the transient simulation of a 4 km tunnel in stress periods of 1 year over a regional model. The model is constructed with Model Muse and Modflow 6 - Disv that has a quadtree refinement on the tunnel path and stream networks.

Instructor / Instructor:

Saul Montoya M.Sc

Hydrogeologist - Numerical Modeler

Mr. Montoya is a Civil Engineer graduated from the Catholic University in Lima with postgraduate studies in Management and Engineering of Water Resources (WAREM Program) from Stuttgart University – Germany with mention in Groundwater Engineering and Hydroinformatics. Mr Montoya has a strong analytical capacity for the interpretation, conceptualization and modeling of the surface and underground water cycle and their interaction. He is in charge of numerical modeling for contaminant transport and remediation systems of contaminated sites. Inside his hydrological and hydrogeological investigations Mr. Montoya has developed an holistic comprehension of the water cycle, understanding and quantifying the main hydrological dynamic process of precipitation, runoff, evaporation and recharge to the groundwater system.
