Abstract
The flow problem of seepage through a homogeneous dam on an impervious foundation with a toe drain has been solved numerically using the Baiocchi method. The numerical scheme reduces to an algorithm that is computationally efficient, accurate, and fast, and requires only a fraction of the prepocessing effort time that the other numerical algorithms do. The results compare well with other numerical and analytical results. The problem is also reduced to a variational inequality that is shown to have at most one solution from which it follows that the original problem has at most one solution.
