Reminder:
Homework
Assignment #6 is due today.
By
the end of today's class, you should be able to do the
following:
v
Using someone else's sketch of
water levels in piezometers (I will assign this part), draw a
quantitatively accurate flow net, including flow lines, equipotential
lines (labeled with their hydraulic head value), and water table.
v Conceptual
Models:
r List and describe the three
components of a conceptual model: hydrostratigraphic units, boundaries,
and stresses.
r Based on the geologic cross
sections constructed by all of your group members, make a conceptual
model for your study area.
r Looking at case studies of other
flow systems, make a conceptual model for those areas.
v Ground
Water Modeling:
r
Explain the difference between an analytical model and a
numerical model.
r Explain
what a numerical model of ground water flow is based on.
r Describe
how to construct a grid for our project area.
