FRAMES and GMSFRAMES and GMSFRAMES and GMSFRAMES and GMS
GMS is the most sophisticated/comprehensive groundwater modeling package, containing numerous numerical models and support features ONLY GROUNDWATER
FRAMES seamlessly links user-defined disparate models, databases, and modeling systems to transfer data

MT3DMS and RT3DMT3DMS and RT3DMT3DMS and RT3DMT3DMS and RT3D
MT3DMS is a modular, 3-D, multi-species transport model for the simulation of advection, dispersion, and limited chemical reactions Zero- or first-order decay of individual chemicals (no chain formation)
RT3D is essentially MT3DMS with significantly enhanced reaction capabilities Multi-species reactive transport with chain formation Complex reaction kinetics with linked reactions, parallel pathways, etc. Reaction kinetics for any chemical system of interest, including a
mixture of mobile and immobile components

Problem DescriptionProblem DescriptionProblem DescriptionProblem Description
A source of Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (NAPL) TCE, which is leaching into an aquifer.
TCE degrades to DCE and VC
No DCE or VC initially exists at the source
TCE concentration emanating from the source simulates first-order loss over a vertical plane.
Simulate the fate and transport of TCE, DCE, and VC to and within the Saturated Zone

Semi-analytical model assumes that the progeny travel at the same speed as the parent one average, linear, unidirectional, pore-water velocity that Dispersivities/Dispersion coefficients (in three
dimensions) are spatially constant that all hydrogeochemical properties are spatially
constant progeny formation based on Bateman’s equation
