New model of groundwater flowing within a confine aquifer: application of Caputo-Fabrizio derivative

A novel definition of the concept of derivative with fractional order was introduced. To further enhance the mathematical model describing the flow of water within a leaky aquifer, we apply the novel derivative. The resulting equation was solved with three different methods. We presented some numerical simulations to show the efficiency of the used derivative.
