Simulation Workflows#

Note

This page and its static assets are auto-generated by python -m tools.doc_gallery. The Sphinx build only reads committed PNG and JSON artifacts.

These cases show complete launcher workflows: preprocessing, solver execution, transport when relevant, and the compact figures used to inspect the result.

  • Grow this category by workflow family rather than by one flat list of runs; add new pages where the reading objective really changes.

Workflow Families#

The cases below are grouped by workflow role so the simulation section can grow without turning into one long undifferentiated card wall.

Runtime Mesh Build#

These cases build the spatial support during the run, then surface the minimum set of solver and postprocess figures needed to understand what the runtime pipeline produced.

MODFLOW 6 on a Gmsh Catchment Mesh

End-to-end launcher run with embedded Gmsh meshing, MODFLOW 6 flow, and GWT transport.

Committed Mesh Replays#

These cases keep the spatial support fixed and focus on how forcing, hydraulic parameters, and solver settings shape the replay on an already versioned basin mesh.

Headwater 100 km2 MF6 Transient Reference

Committed-mesh MODFLOW 6 replay on the 100 km2 outlet-2 basin, published as stable transient postprocess figures.

Observed Basin Diagnostics#

These cases stay close to one observed basin and use stable figures to connect solver response, reference hydrography, and integrated basin diagnostics.

Nancon Transient NWT Basin Diagnostics

Observed-basin transient MODFLOW-NWT run with stable figures linking hydrography diagnostics, groundwater state, hydrograph, and basin budget.

Regional Orchestration#

These cases do not focus on one child solver run. They document how one population of sites and reusable recipes expands into a coordinated study plan.
