1. Modeling strategy
Modeling is a global intellectual and practical approach, but also the name of the first step. It consists in projecting, by simplifying, a problem from Nature space to Model space.
Resolution is the second step in the modeling process. It aims to find a solution to the problem modeled, within the model space.
Interpretation is the third stage in the modeling process. It constitutes the return to Nature space: the Model solution is then evaluated with regard to the biases introduced by the modeling and taking into account the precision of the resolution.
Historically and fundamentally, hydraulics is first and foremost an experimental science. As Leonardo da Vinci put it in the 15th century: "When you deal with the flow of water, don't forget to invoke experience first,...
