Abstract
Abstract It is analyzed the wetting front of the Richards’ equation (RE) for horizontal infiltration problem with impervious layer in a finite medium, and obtained an approximate analytical solution by the series expansion technique. The present approximation is suitable for arbitrary diffusivity in RE and applied to simulate the changes of saturation after the front pass through the impervious point. Two examples about power law diffusivity are analyzed to confirm the accuracy of present solution.
