First Modelling, public company unlimited, Kordíky 128, 976 34 Tajov, Slovakia

Company introduction :

Public company FIRST MODELLING has been established in 1997 by two general partners Dr. Miroslav Drahoš and prof. Karel Kovářík, PhD. The general partners guarantee for all responsibilities of the public company by their whole personal property. FIRST MODELLING company has carried out numerical modelling of ground water flow, numerical modelling of pollutant transport in both saturated and unsaturated zone. FIRST MODELLING company has used computer programs developed by Prof. Kovářík. The possibility of adapting these computer programs to each specific problem has proven itself as a great advantage over the years. The general partners have practiced numerical modelling in close cooperation since 1975.
