Extension of the Dupuit–Forchheimer Model for Non-Hydrostatic Flows in Unconfined Aquifers

The classical Dupuit–Forchheimer approach, commonly used in analysing unconfined groundwater-flow systems, relies on the assumption of a negligible vertical component of the flow. This approximation is valid only when the convergence of streamlines is very limited and the drawdown of the p...
