Development of a 3D fluid-saturated element for dynamic analysis of two-phase media in ABAQUS based on u-U formed equations
Abstract The commonly used finite element software does not provide a three-dimensional (3D) fluid-saturated element available for dynamic analysis of two-phase media, which extremely limits their advantages in solving complicated engineering problems. This paper develops a user element for 3D dynamic analysis of fluid-saturated porous media in ABAQUS based on the u-U formed equations. The dynamic governing formulations are firstly revisited, and an implicit time integration algorithm is adopted to solve the dynamic equations. Then, the major development steps, the structure of the subroutine file, and the keywords directly related to the user element in the input file are carefully presented for the application of the user element. Moreover, the equivalent linear approach is introduced with a detailed realization procedure to consider the soil nonlinearity. Finally, the effectiveness and accuracy of the developed user element are validated by comparing the results with those from four different analytical and numerical solutions. The proposed numerical method with user element has a great potential in modeling practical engineering problems due to the prominent advantages of ABAQUS in simulating complicated materials and irregular geometrics.
