WSU GEOL 576. Development and application of models representing
physical systems, with particular emphasis on ground water flow.
Development and solution of the basic equations of potential flow will
be covered, along with their assumptions and limitations. Properties
assignment, parameter sensitivity, and dimensional analysis will also be
discussed. The course will emphasize when modeling is appropriate, how
to design a model, and how properties should be selected to achieve
meaningful results. Prereq: MATH 275 and HYDR563 (or equiv.), or perm.
