    Unconfined flow through a sand layer

    Application PLAXIS 2D
    PLAXIS 3D
    Version PLAXIS 2D
    PLAXIS 3D
    Date created 08 January 2013
    Date modified 08 January 2013

    This document describes an example that has been used to verify the groundwater flow capabilities of PLAXIS. The problem involves the unconfined flow through a sand layer and the resulting phreatic surface and total discharge.
