Abstract
This is the third of a sequence of papers dealing with ground-water flow in sands of nonuniform thickness. It is concerned with unsteady flow toward wells completely penetrating an aquifer whose thickness may be assumed to vary exponentially in the direction of x while remaining uniform in the y direction. The drawdown induced around a flowing well (well of constant head) or around a well that is pumped at a constant rate is obtained for aquifers that can be considered effectively infinite in areal extent. The flow toward steadily discharging wells near a fairly straight and an effectively long stream, or near an impermeable boundary which completely cuts through the aquifer, is also considered. The results are compared with those which would be obtained if the aquifer were of uniform thickness.
