Mathematical geofiltration model of the system 'soil foundation — hydro installations' for the Plavinas hydroelectric power plant

A three-dimensional geofiltration model of the area of the Plavinas hydro unit has been developed and calibrated from the results of full-scale,in situ observations. The model reproduces complex-interacting groundwater flows in the area and contains, for all practical purposes, a complete set of information on the regime-forming structural elements of the installation and on the intervening hydrogeologic environment subjected to technogenic influence during operation of the hydroelectric plant.
