Open-source SHEMAT-Suite
SHEMAT-Suite (Simulator for HEat and MAss Transport) is a
numerical code for computing flow, heat and species transport
equations in porous media. The governing equations of the code are the
groundwater flow equation, the heat transport equation and the species
transport equation.
SHEMAT-Suite includes parameter estimation and data assimilation
approaches, both stochastic (Monte Carlo, ensemble Kalman filter) and
deterministic (Bayesian inversion using automatic differentiation for
calculating derivatives).
SHEMAT-Suite is written in Fortran-95.
SHEMAT-Suite uses finite-difference discretization on a Cartesian grid
with x, y, z coordinates and block centered nodes.  The system of
equations can be solved explicitly, implicitly or semi-implicitly.
