Abstract: Water-table heights attributable to steady uniform surface accretion rates in drained lands overlying a horizontal impermeable bed are given analytically by Engelund’s solution for toe-drains and by the approximate ...

Abstract: A tension-saturated capillary fringe above the water table in drained lands gives rise to lower water tables than would occur in its absence. Results of a conformal mapping solution for the flow from uniform steady rainfall ...

Abstract: When the flow in the capillary fringe above the water table is taken into account in land-drainage theory, water-table heights are lower than those predicted when incident rainfall on the surface is assumed to travel ...

Abstract: Desalinization of soils, by flooding the surface completely and leaching salts through subsurface drains, removes salts rapidly above the drains but only slowly midway between the drains. More uniform leaching using less ...

Abstract: An explicit closed-form analytical solution giving the water-table depression is obtained for the steady-state problem of seepage to a water-bearing substratum from two reservoirs separated by a strip of land over which ...

Abstract: The Dupuit-Forchheimer approximation is used in an investigation of steady-state water-table heights due to accretion in ditch-drained lands resting on an undulating impermeable bed that slopes away from a peak midway ...

Abstract: Steady-state water tables above parallel lines of cylindrical drains in an infinitely deep soil with uniform surface rainfall were modeled using a computer package that considers the flow in both the groundwater and ...

Abstract: The transient water-table recession in lands drained by parallel lines of ditches extending down to a horizontal floor was numerically modeled for sand and silty clay when the ditch-water level was dropped from an initial ...
