The FEFLOW documentation provides an introduction
to the practical application of the software as well
as a detailed description of the underlying concepts and
methods. While you obtained the Installation Guide
and User Manual in print, the Reference Manual and
the White Papers are available in pdf format on the
installation disk. On request they are also provided as
printed books.
The Reference Manual contains the physical and
mathematical basis of FEFLOW along with a description
of numerous benchmark cases that were used to
verify the applicability of FEFLOW for a broad variety
of physical processes.
The White Papers are a collection of papers regarding
different topics related to FEFLOW, ranging from
theoretical concepts to special fields of application.
This User Manual and the step-by-step Tutorial
contained in the DVD booklet complement the documentation
on the more practical side.
A full reference of the user interface elements along
with a detailed description of the handling is available
in the help system of the graphical interface.

This User Manual is intended as a practical guide to
groundwater modeling with FEFLOW. It aims to
explain the essential work steps of model setup, simulation
and postprocessing, and to present alternative
options and settings with their specific advantages and
disadvantages for specific applications. Thus the User
Manual can serve both as an introduction for FEFLOW
’newbies’, and as a reference for more experienced
users. Its position within the complete set of documen-
tation is between the theoretical basis in Reference
Manual and White Papers and the detailed description
of the user-interface elements and workflows in the
help system.
The manual follows a typical modeling workflow—
starting from basic maps and finishing with postprocessing
and extending FEFLOW’s capabilities. Each
chapter starts with an introduction to the topic, presents
the relevant FEFLOW tools, describes the concepts and
workflows, and ends with a tutorial.
