Definition of boundary and initial conditions in the analysis of saturated ground-water flow systems; an introduction

Franke, O. L.; Reilly, T. E.; Bennett, G. D.

Abstract:

Accurate definition of boundary and initial conditions is an essential part of conceptualizing and modeling ground-water flow systems. This report explains the properties of the seven most common boundary conditions encountered in ground-water systems and discusses major aspects of their application. It also discusses the significance and specification of initial conditions and evaluates some common errors in applying this concept to ground-water system models. (USGS)
