The effects of uncertainty of hydraulic conductivity and van Genuchten fitting parameters, α and n, used for unsaturated flow modeling, on transient seepage through embankment dams are investigated. Random variables of the parameters are generated using a number generation algorithm and it is coupled with a finite element software, SEEP/W, which is commonly used for seepage and groundwater flow problems. Stochastic analyses are handled via Monte Carlo simulation.
