Monte Carlo simulation provides a probabilistic method to evaluate the physical behavior of earth dam. Therefore, the behavior could be got in a more realistic manner. Based on the theory, an innovative software program code is developed by combining the Monte Carlo and finite difference methods to predict the performance of earth dams after impounding. In order to assess the efficiency of the method, the case study of earth dam, located at Southeast of China, has been studied in detail. The performance of this dam is predicted and compared with the field monitoring by using the monitoring data. The results shows the robustness of the proposed method.
