Biphasic Element in Abaqus

Biphasic Element in Abaqus

Biphasic Element in Abaqus

(OP)
Hello to all,
Iam a new subscriber and would like to know about the possiblity of defining a bi-phasic finite element (25% fluid + 75%solid,fibrous material) in ABAQUS. In some literatures, its given that porous materials in ABAQUS can be treated as bi-phasic elements.
If its not possible to define such bi-phasic element, is there any other alternative to define???
Kindly help me in this matter.
regards
HP

RE: Biphasic Element in Abaqus

Hi there,

It is true you can use porous materials (or soils) as biphasic material (see, Wu et al. Journal of Biomechanics, 31(1998) 165-169)...I'm working with this at the moment but I have troubles defining the constant permeability. Can somebody help me out with that??
Thanks
CJ
