Abstract

Seepage free surface issue exists in analysis of the seepage concerning geotechnical slope,earth dam,underground cave and groundwater movement.The determination of seepage free surface is very important to correct understanding of the role of groundwater in slope stability and deformation,the characteristics of groundwater held in slope and its movement process.Using FLAC numerical software this paper respectively modelled,calculated and analyzed relevant parameters such as seepage coefficient,porosity,water head pressure,seepage path length,and anisotropy of rock-soil mass that affect the form of seepage free surface,and then made conclusions.
