Dear HYDRUS-2D users,
We have finally finished what we set out to do several years ago, i.e., to develop a completely new program (called simply <b>HYDRUS</b>) that includes a single graphical environment for both <b>two- and three-dimensional</b> applications. As such the new HYDRUS is a major upgrade and extension of the HYDRUS-2D/MESHGEN-2D software package. The new version has a completely new graphical environment, can be used for both two- and three-dimensional applications, and should provide you with much more flexibility and ease of use than the original HYDRUS-2D.
Please visit http://www.hydrus3d.com (or http://www.pc-progress.cz/Fr_Hydrus.htm) for the most current information and status updates on <b>HYDRUS</b>. Documentation and the software itself (only a demo version of HYDRUS) can be downloaded from this site. You can find at this site information about new major features in computational modules and the graphical user interface, as well as information about how to upgrade from the HYDRUS-2D/MESHGEN-2D software package. <b>HYDRUS</b> is fully backward compatible and allows users to convert old HYDRUS-2D project into a new HYDRUS format.
Please, pay special attention to our new <b>Tutorial</b> section. We have created several “<b>videos</b>” that explain some of the new features of the new software. We have also created “videos” that use our original HYDRUS-2D tutorials, but now carried out in the new software. That should help you to get used to the new environment.
HYDRUS-2D was exclusively distributed by IGWMC. <b>HYDRUS</b> is again distributed by IGWMC, but additionally also directly by <b>PC-Progress</b> and other distributors (e.g., <b>Yuko Toride</b> in Japan; you can obtain contact addresses on the HYDRUS web site).
Similarly as HYDRUS-2D, we will be supporting HYDRUS (2/3D) using discussion forum, FAQ, or directly through personal contacts.
Good luck with the new software.
Jirka and Mirek
