Dear  Bruno,

Thanks for your advice, that is helpful  for me. And  I‘m sorry to reply so 
late.
I have been trying to simulate the dynamic  response of the soil under wave 
action by using DEM-PFV modle. Although there are some  scripts written, but 
there are always inappropriate mistakes. You is one of the creators of yade's 
PFV, I have seen you many papers. Could you please  share a related script?  
Let me learn how to write more correctly.

Thanks again.

Best,
Deng

Bruno Chareyre posted a new comment:
Just a note: if you set the permeabilityFactor negative then the value is used 
as a Darcy conductivity (probably not a perfect equality but very similar order 
of magnitude). It implies that in this case conductivity becomes independent of 
particle sizes and of fluid viscosity. 
It can help if you want to use particle size just as a discretization parameter.

>The pressure curves should have a phase difference.

This really depends on many parameters (compressibility of the fluid, 
permeability of the porous medium, stiffness and stability of the solid,... ). 
Not possible to judge with the info you give.

In some cases you can use DEM as a discretization of space. In other
cases, you can let the DE represent the actual particles. Of course, if
your particles are very small you won't be able to simulate a large
volume without incurring great computational costs as you mention. PFV
doesn't discriminate between the two cases, it simply creates a pore
network based on the packing you give it.

>There is another problem in my simulation. I find that the variations

is also not reasonable. The pressure curves should have a phase
difference.

Have you calibrated the packing permeability?

Dear Robert,

Thanks for your reply.
I just take into account the actual particle size is very small, so the 
calculation is very large. Did you try to simulate experiment with the actual 
particle size?
There is another problem in my simulation.  I find that the variations of pore 
pressure with time at different depths are the same phase, It is also not  
reasonable. The pressure curves  should have a phase difference.

Look forward to your kind reply. Thanks for your advice again.

Hello,

Maybe Bruno should answer this since he is one of the creators of yade's
PFV, but I might as well share my understanding of how it works. PFV
simulates a network of pores with connecting channels. The triangulation
of the pore network is controlled by the locations of the discrete
elements. Permeability between pores is computed using the "actual"
particle sizes and locations, and poromechanical behavior of the packing
is simulated using the "actual" particle sizes and locations. Maybe that
answers your question? The PFV implementation in yade is well documented
in [1] and [2] for further reading.

Cheers,

Robert

Dear  Robert and Bruno,

Thanks  for your answers, that solved my question.
Can I ask another question? Whether the particles in PFV model simulate the 
actual particles or just representative particles(not match the actual particle 
size)? This question is confusing me. 

Thanks again.

Hi,
I don't understand the problem described.
The fact that the simulation does not match experiments says nothing, you need 
to compare with a theoretical solution.

If I were you I would calibrate the specimen permeability using a
positive permeabilityFactor. If you use flow.debug=True you can see some
flow statistics that might come in handy, but you might also consider
setting up a flow-through test to measure permeability directly.

Question #626580 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/626580

bin deng gave more information on the question:
Hello Robert,

Thanks for your answer very much.
I have tried to add permeability of the experimental specimen by using 
permeabilityFactor. But when I add "flow. permeabilityFactor=-0.00012"(the 
permeability of the experimental specimen is 1.2*10-4cm/s), the simulation 
results are not improved obviously. So I think there are still other reasons in 
my code. 

I also consider if the viscosity of fluid is a reason, and try add it to
code some times, but don't resolve the problem.

Look forward to your kind reply. Thanks for your advice again!

Best,
Deng
