  • A study is made on the determination of the total head distribution using the random walk theory within a confined flow system with complicated boundary conditions. Both nonhomogeniety and anisotropy of the aquifer are considered. The overlying on the aquifer may have sheet piles and the impervious boundary may be inclined. Use is made of the Monte Carlo simulation based on the random walk theory to determine the total head at a given Point. A computer program is developed for practical use. The proposed method was evaluated by comparing the results with those obtained by other method, i.e., the conventional flow net, the finite difference method, and the method of fragment. It is found that all the values are in reasonable agreement and the method is sufficiently accurate for practical use.
