The Dupuit–Forchheimer assumption is a principle used in groundwater hydrology, particularly in the context of modeling flow through porous media. It relates to the behavior of groundwater flow in an aquifer system and introduces an important assumption regarding the flow regime. ### Key Points about the Dupuit–Forchheimer Assumption: 1. **Vertical Flow Neglection**: The assumption primarily states that, under certain conditions, the flow of groundwater can be approximated as horizontal.
