Computer Modeling of Multi-Phase Water
Under Martian Conditions

The SwRI-developed MarsFlo® software is the first simulation tool that incorporates a range of physical processes and conditions of the past and present Martian subsurface. It is used to investigate the evolution of the hydrologic system and long-term stability of water in the near-surface of Mars.

For more information about the numerical modeling of extraterrestrial multi-phase water transport capabilities at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) or how you can  contract with SwRI, please contact Dr. Scott Painter at spainter@swri.org or (210) 522-3348.
