Ground Behaviors due to Seepage Force of Groundwater
Well pumping leads to both horizontal and vertical displacement, and fluctuation of groundwater level can cause serious damage to structures in a lagre affected area. Ground behaviors due to seepage force in traditional methods were rarely considered. This paper presents a numerical solution of ground displacement behaviors due to unsteady groundwater flow in unconfined aquifer by considering the effect of capillary zone based on the saturated-unsaturated seepage theory, and the numerical simulation code implemented by FORTRAN is applied to predict the flow velocity distribution and the results of ground displacement. The model uses the finite element method and finite difference method to study the problem. The analysis shows that the seepage force and the effect of capillary zone play a very important role in both seepage flow and displacement field.
