GMS:TVM Package

Example of the TVM Package dialog.

The Time-Variant Materials package (TVM) works with MODLOW-USG Transport. The TVM package allows hydraulic conductivity and storage values to be changed as a step function between stress periods or in a continuous manner through a transient simulation.

The TVM Package dialog is divided into two parts: one on the left which shows the main sections, and one on the right which shows the inputs for the current section.
