    Abstract: Seepage analysis forms an important and basic part of geotechnical engineering owing to its importance in ground water contamination control, slope stability analysis and dam design. Furthermore, It is important for determining the distribution of seepage uplift pressures and the resulting seepage forces as well as the estimation of the volume of s... Show More
