Finite Element Analysis of Dam-Reservoir Interaction Using High-Order Doubly Asymptotic Open Boundary

الملخص EN

The dam-reservoir system is divided into the near field modeled by the finite element method, and the far field modeled by the excellent high-order doubly asymptotic open boundary (DAOB).

Direct and partitioned coupled methods are developed for the analysis of dam-reservoir system.

In the direct coupled method, a symmetric monolithic governing equation is formulated by incorporating the DAOB with the finite element equation and solved using the standard time-integration methods.

In contrast, the near-field finite element equation and the far-field DAOB condition are separately solved in the partitioned coupled methodm, and coupling is achieved by applying the interaction force on the truncated boundary.

To improve its numerical stability and accuracy, an iteration strategy is employed to obtain the solution of each step.

Both coupled methods are implemented on the open-source finite element code OpenSees.

Numerical examples are employed to demonstrate the performance of these two proposed methods.
