Abstract
In this paper we consider two water reservoirs which are separated by a dam D consisting of an isotropic, homogeneous, porous material. The levels of the reservoirs may be different and time dependent and they are supposed to tend to fixed levels if t tends to infinity. We start with nonstationary initial conditions and we are interested in the asymptotic behavior of the pressure distribution u(t, z) of the water in the dam if t tends to infinity.
