Abstract
In this paper, the novel high-order updated Lagrangian nonlocal general particle dynamics (UL-NGPD) is first proposed to solve anisotropic transient seepage flow problems, in which the novel high-order spatially nonlocal operators are first established to obtain accurate second-order nonlocal differential derivatives. The novel high-order UL-NGPD formulation and its corresponding numerical implementations of boundary conditions and time integration for seepage problems are established, which are capable of automatically capturing seepage surfaces without extra treatments and consider the complete time-dependent transition from unsaturated to saturated states. The capabilities of the proposed high-order UL-NGPD method in solving the complex seepage flow problems are verified by several examples. The numerical results are in good agreement with theoretical solutions. This indicates that the newly proposed high-order UL-NGPD method is powerful and suitable for solving complex transient seepage flow problems, which marks a significant milestone for its future application to solving fully coupled flow deformation problems involving large deformation and failure of porous media.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering publishes original papers describing significant, novel developments in numerical methods that are applicable to engineering problems.
The Journal is known for welcoming contributions in a wide range of areas in computational engineering, including computational issues in model reduction, uncertainty quantification, verification and validation, inverse analysis and stochastic methods, optimisation, element technology, solution techniques and parallel computing, damage and fracture, mechanics at micro and nano-scales, low-speed fluid dynamics, fluid-structure interaction, electromagnetics, coupled diffusion phenomena, and error estimation and mesh generation. It is emphasized that this is by no means an exhaustive list, and particularly papers on multi-scale, multi-physics or multi-disciplinary problems, and on new, emerging topics are welcome.
