Abstract
A computer program for simulating ground-water flow in three dimensions is presented. This report includes detailed explanations of physical and mathematical concepts on which the model is developed. Ground-water flow within the aquifer is simulated by using a block-centered finite-difference approach. The program is written in Fortran 77 and has a modular structure, which permits the addition of new packages to the program without modifying existing packages.

Random-Walk Simulation of Transport in Heterogeneous Porous Media: Local Mass-Conservation Problem and Implementation Methods

TL;DR: In this article, the random walk method for simulating solute transport in porous media is typically based on the assumption that the velocity and velocity-dependent dispersion tensor vary smoothly in space.

A review and numerical assessment of the random walk particle tracking method.

TL;DR: The general applicability of random walk particle tracking in comparison to the standard transport models is discussed and it is concluded that in advection-dominated problems using a high spatial discretization or requiring the performance of many model runs, RWPT represents a good alternative for modelling contaminant transport.

Factors controlling riffle‐scale hyporheic exchange flows and their seasonal changes in a gaining stream: A three‐dimensional groundwater flow model

TL;DR: In this paper, a single riffle of a low-gradient gravel bed stream was modeled in three dimensions using MODFLOW, a finite difference groundwater flow model Model simulations showed that exchange flows can only occur in this lowgradient, gaining stream because of a zone of alluvial sediment around the stream that has much higher permeability than the surrounding catchment.
