The purpose of this paper is a comprehensive literature review of different aspects of
seepage analysis of earth-fill and rock-fill dams, emphasizing probabilistic developed …

This paper presents a practical approach for reliability analysis of steady-state seepage by
modeling spatial variability of the soil permeability. The traditional semi-analytical method; …

The major difficulty in the analysis of unconfined flow in porous media is that the free surface
is unknown a priori, where the nonlinearity is even stronger than the unsaturated seepage …

An efficient unconfined seepage analysis method is developed for analysing fluid flow in
fractured rock mass. The proposed method discretises both porous rock matrix (a low …

This paper aims to develop a moving-mesh type Finite Element Method for the computation
of the transient unconfined seepage flow through the porous medium. The proposed method …

One major difficulty in seepage analyses is finding the position of phreatic surface which is
unknown at the beginning of solution and must be determined in an iterative process. The …

Numerical manifold method (NMM) is a numerical method known for analyzing continuous
and discontinuous mechanical processes in a unified mathematical form. In this study we …

The safety control of dams is based on measurements of parameters of interest such as
seepage flows, seepage water clarity, piezometric levels, water levels, pressures …

Seepage analyses have mainly been executed using the finite element method; numerical
analyses using the finite difference method (FDM) have been limited to cases where the …

In this study, the radial basis function (RBF) spatial interpolation method was used to
estimate the potential water heads through an earthen dam. The multiquadric (MQ) function …
