SVFlux 3D represents the ultimate in the 3D modeling of saturated and unsaturated groundwater flow. Our simple CAD-style input module allows for creation of your model as a series of surfaces and layers. Soil properties may be input from laboratory data or selected from our database of laboratory data on over 6000 soils.

Once the model is input our powerful finite element solver will take over. Mesh generation and refinement is fully automatic allowing you to focus on the solution and not on convergence problems.

Visualize the results of your analysis as contour plots of pressure or head as 2D slices through your problem. Move up to our visualization module for advanced plots including pathlines, transparency, cut-aways, isosurfaces, and animation.
