Free surface in two-dimensional gravity flow systems is determined by simple equation in one iterative cycle; base pressures at impervious boundaries, as well as pore-water pressures or total hydraulic heads within flow medium, can easily be determined after free surface is located; two problems are analyzed; vertical dam cores and earth dams or embankments with sloping sides; in both problems Dupuit-Forch-heimer assumptions are eliminated; in second case, effects of both upstream and downstream slopes are taken into consideration.
