CALIBRATION AND RELIABILITY IN GROUNDWATER MODELLING : COPING WITH UNCERTAINTY, 20-23/09/1999, ZURICH

Proceedings of the ModelCARE'99 conference. Modelling concepts: validity and sensibility analysis of flow and transport models (continuum, pipe and open-channel flow types). Stochastic modelling: identification of aquifer properties, upscaling parameters. Parameter estimation and model calibration: case studies and guidelines, automatic model calibration methodologies. Reliability of model prediction. Comprehensive use of field information. Non linear and coupled flow and transport modelling: density flow modelling, multiphase modelling, reactive transport modelling and coupled surface water and groundwater modelling.
