Abstract
A three‐field finite element (FE) model for dynamic porous media considering the de la Cruz and Spanos (dCS) theory is presented. Due to fluid viscous dissipation terms, wave propagation in the dCS theory yields an additional rotational wave compared to Biot (BT) theory. In addition, introducing porosity as a dynamic variable in the dCS model allows solid‐fluid nonreciprocal interactions. Due to the volume‐averaging technique, the dCS model further accounts for a macroscopic shear modulus and adds a new macroscopic constant. The porous media governing equations are formulated in terms of solid displacement, fluid pressure, and fluid displacement. Space and time convergence rates for the FE dCS model are demonstrated in a one‐dimensional case. A dimensionless analysis performed in the dCS framework led to negligible differences between BT and dCS models except when assuming high fluid viscosity. Domains with small characteristic lengths resulted in BT and dCS damping terms in the same order of magnitude. One‐ and two‐dimensional examples showed that dCS nonreciprocal interactions and the macroscopic shear modulus are responsible for modifying wave patterns. A two‐dimensional injection well simulation with water and slickwater showed higher wave attenuation for the latter. High frequencies in dCS model were noticed to yield more significant changes in wave patterns. The numerical results highlight the contributions of the dCS porous media model and its importance in simulations of laboratory scale experiments, ultrasonic frequencies, and highly viscous fluids.
期刊介绍:
The journal welcomes manuscripts that substantially contribute to the understanding of the complex mechanical behaviour of geomaterials (soils, rocks, concrete, ice, snow, and powders), through innovative experimental techniques, and/or through the development of novel numerical or hybrid experimental/numerical modelling concepts in geomechanics. Topics of interest include instabilities and localization, interface and surface phenomena, fracture and failure, multi-physics and other time-dependent phenomena, micromechanics and multi-scale methods, and inverse analysis and stochastic methods. Papers related to energy and environmental issues are particularly welcome. The illustration of the proposed methods and techniques to engineering problems is encouraged. However, manuscripts dealing with applications of existing methods, or proposing incremental improvements to existing methods – in particular marginal extensions of existing analytical solutions or numerical methods – will not be considered for review.
