Modeling of an oblique incident P1-wave in a water saturated soil with the Wave Based Method

In this contribution, a coupling approach between the Wave Based Method and an oblique incident P1-wave is presented. The approach is used to model a poroelastic halfspace with an empty canyon by applying Biot’s theory for low frequencies. The system’s response is compared with a reference solution from literature. Moreover, a second coupling approach is introduced to permit the modeling of a filled canyon. In the special case of a canyon filled with the material of the surrounding soil, the simulation results are compared with the underlying analytical solution.     «
