Abstract:
The numerical solution of the hydro-mechanical-chemical (HMC) fully coupled equations in porous media faces significant challenges due to spurious oscillation in pore pressure and concentration caused by locking and convection dominance. This study proposes a combination of two different discretization schemes: (1) the Galerkin discretization on the primal mesh for the soil skeleton deformation, and (2) the finite volume method (FVM) on the dual mesh for solute transport and fluid flow, named G-FVM, where the approximations of skeleton displacement (u), pore pressure (p), and concentration(c) are established by NMM, to reflect compressible and incompressible deformation. Typical examples of chemo-osmotic and chemo-mechanical consolidation are simulated to verify the accuracy of the G-FVM. Through the numerical tests of 1D and 2D chemo-mechanical consolidation problems, it is evident that when convection-dominated solute transport is associated with Biot's consolidation law, two different numerical oscillations are observed in both pore pressure and concentration if only the Galerkin method is applied. Nevertheless, the G-FVM did not produce oscillations in either pore pressure or concentration and is free of locking and convection dominance, accurately predicting the response of low-permeability porous media.
