    Finite difference scheme for unconfined aquifer equation ?

    For an unconfined aquifer , we have this pde for the water table position , of course after making the Boussinesq somehow linear : ∂²(h²)∕∂x² + ∂²(h²)∕∂y² = (2s/k ) ∂h/∂t - 2N/k N and K and S are constants . would u tell me what type mathematically it is ? this equation , in respect to h^2...

    Pore water pressure

    I was calculating lateral earth pressure at rest for a submerged or actually partially submerged soil. with a surcharge q for instance. and i dont understand why this surcharge does not add to pore water pressure , and we only add it to effective stress. is it the same when water table is at...
