A Comparative Study of Artificial Boundary Conditions in ABAQUS

Abstract:

Viscous boundary, viscous spring boundary, infinite boundary have been widely used during the last decades to solve the wave propagation in the infinite ground. In this paper we evaluate the performance of the three boundary conditions focusing on their solution precision. The comparison is performed on a two dimensional finite element model built by ABAQUS. The results show that viscous spring boundary outperforms the other boundary conditions, and viscous boundary is better than infinite element.
