Laplace transform step-response functions are presented for one dimensional transient flow in fractured semi-infinite & / finite aquifers. Unsteady flow in the aquifer resulting from a constant discharge pumped from the stream is considered. Flow is one-dimensional, perpendicular to the stream in the confined aquifers. The stream is assumed to penetrate the full thickness of the aquifer. The aquifers may be semi-infinite or finite in width. The Laplace domain solutions are numerically inverted to the real-time domain with the Stehfest (1970) algorithm. During the course of the thesis a simple computer code is written to handle the algorithm and the code is verified by applying it to the one-dimensional transient flow in a semi-infinite homogeneous aquifer problem which can be solved analytically to crosscheck with the numerical results.
