MIKE 21 OS FM: Oil spill modelling using flexible mesh
Date: Monday 08 September - Tuesday 09 September 2014
Location: Southampton, United Kingdom
Language: English

This two-day course teaches you the fundamentals of 2D oil spill modelling using flexible mesh, how to setup and model the fate and transport of oil using the MIKE 21 Oil Spill model (OS) FM.

Oil spills pose serious threats to water environments and place massive pressure on the entities that are responsible for the emergency response and clean-up operations, such as oil companies and national authorities.

The Oil Spill module simulates the spreading and weathering of suspended substances using a dedicated oil spill template. Oil spill modelling is important for emergency response planning and environmental impact assessment. Oil spill models predict the spreading and weathering processes acting on the spilled oil. Results can be evaluated with respect to the impacts on flora, fauna and selected species or habitats. Read more...

Worldwide, we offer a wide range of consulting services and leading edge technologies, software tools, environmental laboratories, and physical model test facilities, as well as field surveys and monitoring programmes. Designated as a not-for-profit organisation, DHI is able to invest a considerable portion of its resources in research and development. Today we co-operate with many Universities, and research organisations, and are recognised globally for our innovation and expertise.

In the UK, DHI offers niche or specialist consultancy services in the water and environment market to government agencies, commercial entities and selected research organisations. We fulfil a research based specialist advisor role; a ‘Consultant to the Consultants’. We also supply and support the renowned MIKE by DHI suite of integrated water modelling tools.

MIKE by DHI software is the result of years of experience and dedicated development and has, in many regions, become the standard modelling tool. It transforms our science into practice and gives you the competitive edge and, through the DHI Academy, you can rest assured that there is a local team of highly skilled experts committed to train and support you every step of the way.

MIKE by DHI truly models the world of water - from mountain streams to the ocean and from drinking water to treatment plant and beyond.

Important Information

Demonstration only – not for commercial use: All posts are for information & discussion only. Numerous assumptions have been made to facilitate any modelling and it is important to be aware that generated water levels, velocities, etc are a prediction only. The accuracy of third party information cannot be guaranteed. Interpolation of any bathymetric / topographic survey data must be checked. No site visits have been made in the preparation of any models. Checks must be made to ensure that the data provided is correct & appropriate for particular study sites. Similarly, the appropriateness of mesh resolution used for particular study sites has not been considered. All models must be re-run – performing all necessary validation checks deemed appropriate. DHI will accept no liability for the accuracy of conclusions or predictions drawn from, or the data within, any demonstration modelling exercises posted on, or associated with, this blog.
