Question: The flow between two parallel rivers is shallow one - dimensional with prescribed hydraulic head 0 at x = 0 and 1 at x =

The flow between two parallel rivers is shallow one-dimensional with prescribed hydraulic head 0 at x=0 and 1 at x=L. The formation is unconfined with a horizontal base and conductivity K. The infiltration intensity is N.
(a) Please derive the analytical solution for the hydraulic head distribution between 0 and L.
(b) Draw the water table.
(c) Derive and draw the discharge rate between 0 and L.
(d) Find the highest water table and its location.
Data for (b)-(d) : N=10-9ms,K=10-6ms,0=12m,1=10m,L=2000m.
(e) Discuss the distribution patterns of the hydraulic head over the entire domain and the discharge rate at x=0 for a variable infiltration intensity, N, i.e., considering N from 0 to a very large value.
