A finite element formulation for confined aquifer flow, which takes into account elevation changes of the aquifer is presented. The middle surface of the aquifer is assumed not as a horizontal plane but as a curved surface. The theory of isoparametric finite elements is applied to develop a general isoparametric surface element for the problem. The presented technique can, with little additional programming effort, be incorporated into any standard finite element computer program for solving the two-dimensional quasi-harmonic differential equation (i.e. equation governing heat conduction, electric potential, seepage through porous media etc.) A computer program using a four node quadrilateral surface element has been developed. Some results of two examples analyzed using this program are finally established.

Cean water is needed in a human community. The need for clean water can be taken from subsurface water through a pumping process. Efforts to get clean water that has sustainability can be done by knowing the direction of the aquifer flow. The direction of the aquifer flow can be known through subsurface modeling. This study uses the geoelectric method in modeling the subsurface layer to determine the position of the aquifer. Based on the subsurface model, the average depth of an aquifer is between 30-100 meters. The subsurface model shows the type of aquifer depressed with a clay layer as the upper and lower limits of the aquifer. The subsurface water is estimated to have a flow direction from East to West in a confined aquifer.

A reduced model has been developed to describe the time evolution of a discharge in an iron core tokamak, taking into account the nonlinear behavior of the ferromagnetic during the discharge. The calculation of the discharge scenario and program regime in the tokamak is formulated as an inverse problem - the optimal control problem. The methods for solving the problem are compared and the analysis of the correctness and stability of the control problem is carried out. A model of “quasi-optimal” control is proposed, which allows one to take into account real power sources. The discharge scenarios are calculated for the T-15 tokamak with an iron core.
