Hi, I’m currently working on a thesis whose objective is objective is the simulation of threee-dimensional displacements caused by groundwater withdrawal. Is this coupling (flow in 3d domain + deformation) actually implemented in OpenGeoSys? Alternatively, which geomechanical model can i coupled to OGS?
Hi, from what you have mentioned, I guess a coupled Richards flow mith mechanics process would be fitting your purposes. Though I’d start with fully saturated simulations with hydro-mechanical process.
Some documentation on how to get OGS up and running is here Introduction. The relevant benchmarks are, for example:
- Tests/Data/RichardsMechanics/confined_compression_fully_saturated.prj · master · ogs / ogs · GitLab for RichardsMechanics, and
- Tests/Data/HydroMechanics/Linear/Gravity · master · ogs / ogs · GitLab for HydroMechanics
For available constitutive relations have a look in the project file tags documentation (at least the names) like for Lubby2 model: OGS: [case] Lubby2
