GMS Models

Numerical models are programs that are separate from GMS that are used to run a detailed mathematical analysis representing the groundwater flow or other physical behavior. GMS supports several types of models including analytical element, finite difference and finite element models.

GMS supports the numerical models as a pre- and post-processor. The model elements and parameters are defined in GMS and saved to a set of standard input files. These files are then read by the model when the model is executed when launched from the GMS menu. Once the analysis is complete in the numerical model, the results are read into GMS for review and display (postprocessing).

GMS also has the option of using a "model wrapper" to run the model and display real-time results during the model simulation.

Numerical models to the left are currently supported in GMS. Each model is included with the GMS installation (model executable files and documentation) and is fully linked with the GMS software.
