Simulation of seepage and drawing the flow net for the groundwater flow Abaqus
This example been chosen from Example 9.11 Sam Helwany book
In this example , we simulate seepage (The flow of water through soils) and we draw flow lines and equipotential lines with Abaqus
A long horizontal drainage pipe located at 4.5 m below the ground surface
The drainage pipe is 0.6 m in diameter
The 3-m-deep water on top of the soil is replaced by a pore water pressure boundary condition with u = 30 kPa at the top surface of the flow domain
The pore water pressure along the perimeter of the drain is set equal to zero
The permeability of the soil is 5e-7 m/s. The weight of the water is applied by gravity loading
The two vertical sides and the bottom side of the flow domain are impermeable
