Abstract
The unsaturated infiltration through soil was numerically simulated by a Random Walk Method. Several cases of the time development of water content in a soil and the movements of water-particles when there was a constant rate rainfall for a certain duration of time were computed. The infiltrations through a soil with a homogeneous infiltration coefficient and with non-homogeneous coefficients were computed, whose results were in good agreement with laboratory experimental data.
