MODFLOW |
The USGS 3-D Modular Groundwater Flow model -- the "world-standard" public-domain groundwater flow modeling code. A flexible finite-difference approach to modeling natural aquifers. |

| FRACWORKS
by Golder and Associates |
The fracture
generation and modeling code of Golder and Associates.
FracWorks generates three dimensional realizations of
discrete feature geology using based on physically
measurable parameters to produce geologically realistic
discrete feature networks. FracWorks DFN models have been
implemented for sites in sandstone, limestone/dolomite,
siltstone, marl, and crystalline rocks. FracWorks
includes features for visualization, statistical
analysis, and export to MAFIC (fracture flow code).
