GeoStudio 2D Flow includes the following:

AIR/W

AIR/W is a powerful finite element software product for model​l​ing air transfer in mine waste and other porous media. AIR/W can be used to model a range of scenarios, from simple single phase air transfer problems to complex coupled air-water systems.

CTRAN/W

CTRAN/W is a powerful finite element software product for model​l​ing solute and gas transfer in porous media. CTRAN/W can be used to model simple diffusion-dominated systems through to complex advection-dispersion systems with first-order reactions. 

SEEP/W

SEEP/W is a powerful finite element software product for modelling groundwater flow in porous media. SEEP/W can model simple saturated steady-state problems or sophisticated saturated/unsaturated transient analyses with atmospheric coupling at the ground surface.

TEMP/W

TEMP/W is a powerful finite element software product for model​l​ing heat transfer and phase change in porous media. TEMP/W can ​also ​analys​e simple conduction problems to complex surface energy simulations with cyclical freeze-thaw.   

GeoStudio 3D Flow

GeoStudio 2D and 3D Flow are powerful multi-physics finite element software packages for modelling environmental protection, groundwater flow, and ground freezing problems in two and three dimensions.

GeoStudio 3D Flow includes the following:

AIR3D

AIR3D models air flow in the subsurface and can be integrated with SEEP3D, TEMP3D, and CTRAN3D to model various physical processes. 

CTRAN3D

CTRAN3D is a mass transfer formulation for analysing solute and gas transfer in porous media.

SEEP3D

SEEP3D is a powerful finite element software product for modelling 3D groundwater flow in porous media. SEEP3D can model simple saturated steady-state problems or sophisticated saturated / unsaturated transient analyses using the same comprehensive set of material models and boundary conditions as SEEP/W.

TEMP3D

TEMP3D analyzes heat transfer in the ground via conduction and forced convection with a full range of material models and boundary conditions to tackle engineering and environmental challenges.
