problems with the definition of saturation in HM behaviors

Hi,

I'm a new user of Salome-Meca.

I'm trying to study the percolation in a earth-fill dam, but I have some problems in the definition of the saturation and permeability functions.

I read that it's possible to use Mualem Van Genuchten model, so I tried that way but there were some problems running the algoritm (annex).

I used the following parameters for the calculation:

VG_N=1.64;

VG_PR=-4475;

VG_SR=0.1;

VG_MAX=0.99999;

VG_SATUR=0.99999;

Are the problems related with the parameters I used?
