Modified Theis Equation, Theis (1935) nonequilibrium method for constant- and variable-rate pumping tests in nonleaky confined (and unconfined) aquifers. The automated method is simply, quick, and inexpensive. These sensitivity coefficients are used in the section on least squares fitting to develop an algorithm for fitting the Theis equation to experimental pumptest data. F2 and F3 are faults) and the geological crosssections I and II (b), in Example 2. 6. The Theis equation for drawdown is given in compact notation as follows: In order to broaden the scope of its application, the Theis formula can be modified for use in situations where the pumped formation is adjacent to another formation having a considerably different transmissibility. The modification is made by an application of the image well theory, The mission of the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) is to lead the state's efforts in ensuring a secure water future for Texas and its citizens. The Theis equation was derived under the assumption that total stress in the aquifer was constant and the mechanical Equations Cooper and Jacob (1946) derived a modified form of the Theis (1935) solution for transient flow to a well discharging at a constant rate from an homogeneous and isotropic nonleaky confined aquifer of infinite extent and uniform thickness.
