15 years experience in the water and power industry focused primarily on: fluvial and coastal flood management, river engineering, dams and reservoirs (including hydropower and pumped storage).Currently providing front line sales and technical support to all the major UK & Irish Engineering Consultants, Water Companies and Regulators on a daily basis to assist them in the application of the MIKE & FEFLOW software to their projects. MIKE Software Support in the UK can be contacted via mike.uk@dhigroup.comI have vast experience in practical application of 1D, 2D and 3D computational software to assist in the delivery of real world projects. Almost uniquely in the industry I have used, reviewed and trained users in software from all the major software vendors. Specific knowledge in: 1D Hydraulic Modelling: ISIS 1D, HECRAS, MIKE 11/MIKE HYDRORIVER, Infoworks CS, Infoworks RS2D Hydraulic Modelling: ISIS 2D, Tuflow, MIKE 21 FM, Infoworks ICM.3D Hydraulic Modelling: MIKE 3Groundwater Modelling: FEFLOW Integrated Catchment Modelling: MIKE SHE GIS: ArcGIS and associated extensions, MAPINFO, QGIS. Mark’s Engineering Doctorate looked at the operation of the 1728MW Dinorwig Pumped Storage Scheme, in its catchment, market and regulatory context. Mark’s research helped improve understanding of the management of water within the power station system, and within the upstream and downstream catchment (which impacts on power station operation).
