The Gila-San Francisco Decision Support Tool analyzes the water demand and supply for the Gila San Francisco region spanning four counties in southwestern New Mexico (Catron, Hidalgo, Luna and Grant). Catalyzed by the 2004 Arizona Water Settlement Act and prompted by a keen awareness for the unique ecology in the region, the model was developed by Sandia with a collaborative modeling team from federal, state, local, and public stakeholders
This document describes the form and use of three supplemental capabilities added to Goma during 1998 -- augmenting conditions, automatic continuation and linear stability analysis. Augmenting conditions allow the addition of constraints and auxiliary conditions which describe the relationship between unknowns, boundary conditions, material properties and post-processing extracted quantities. Automatic continuation refers to a family of algorithms (zeroth and first order here, single and multi-parameter) that allow tracking steady-state solution paths as material parameters or boundary conditions are varied. The stability analysis capability in Goma uses the method of small disturbances and superposition of normal modes to test the stability of a steady- state flow, i.e., it determines if the disturbance grows or decays in time.
Goma 6.0 is a finite element program which excels in analyses of multiphysical processes, particularly those involving the major branches of mechanics (viz. fluid/solid mechanics, energy transport and chemical species transport). Goma is based on a full-Newton-coupled algorithm which allows for simultaneous solution of the governing principles, making the code ideally suited for problems involving closely coupled bulk mechanics and interfacial phenomena. Example applications include, but are not limited to, coating and polymer processing flows, super-alloy processing, welding/soldering, electrochemical processes, and solid-network or solution film drying. This document serves as a user's guide and reference.
