This book, designed as a handbook, provides a systematic treatment
of analytical solutions describing groundwater flow during aquifer
tests. The book integrates the majority of known solutions from
well hydraulics and subsurface flow theory, starting with
pioneering work from the early 20th century up to the most recent
publications in scientific journals. The book includes about 300
transient solutions covering a wide range of aquifer test scenarios
and hydrogeological conditions. All the solutions have been
thoroughly tested and implemented in the multifunctional ANSDIMAT
software. The book comprises three parts and is supplemented by
appendices. The first part of the book is dedicated to basic
analytical relationships referring to pumping tests with constant
discharge rate. Conceptual models describe confined, unconfined,
confined-unconfined, inhomogeneous, and fracture-porous aquifers,
as well as leaky aquifers and multi-layer aquifer systems.
Complicating factors such as flow boundaries, aquifer anisotropy,
non-uniform aquifer thickness, partial well penetration, wellbore
storage and skin, the effect of capillary forces are also
considered. The second part focuses on complex pumping test
settings and well system configurations. Analytical solutions are
presented for pumping from a horizontal or inclined well,
constant-head tests, multi-well variable-discharge tests,
simultaneous pumping from adjacent aquifers and dipole flow tests.
Detailed descriptions are given for slug and recovery tests. The
third part of the book contains algorithms for evaluating hydraulic
characteristics using analytical and graphical methods, and is
supplemented by the ANSDIMAT tool. This software includes solutions
for some practical engineering-hydrogeological problems, in
particular, the assessment of aquifer characteristics by data on
groundwater level monitoring and the evaluation of water inflow
into open pits. The book is supplemented with appendices in which
hydrogeologists can find a vast body of useful information
including mathematical descriptions of the majority of analytical
functions used in the book, their plots and possible
approximations. Audience: The book is useful for hydrogeologists
(students, engineers and researchers) engaged in groundwater flow
studies, aquifer test analysis, environmental geologists and civil
engineers. Experts in water flow numerical modeling and programmers
developing software for aquifer tests will find valuable
information in this book, which can also be used for educational
and research purposes.
