On stability and convergence of finite element approximations of biot's consolidation problem

TL;DR: In this paper, a family of decay functions, parametrized by the number of time steps, is derived for the fully discrete backward Euler-Galerkin formulation, showing that the pore-pressure oscillations, arising from an unstable approximation of the incompressibility constraint on the initial condition, decay in time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved accuracy in finite element analysis of Biot's consolidation problem

TL;DR: In this paper, numerical analysis and error estimates of finite element approximations of Biot's consolidation problem are presented, leading to lower orders of convergence for the pore pressure compared to the displacements of the porous medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electro-chemo-mechanical couplings in swelling clays derived from a micro/macro-homogenization procedure

TL;DR: In this article, a macroscopic model for highly compacted expansive clays composed of a charged solid phase saturated by a binary monovalent aqueous electrolyte solution is derived based on a rigorous scale-up of the microstructural behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Two-Scale Model for Coupled Electro-Chemo-Mechanical Phenomena and Onsager’s Reciprocity Relations in Expansive Clays: I Homogenization Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the macroscopic model governing coupled electro-chemo-mechanical phenomena in expansive clays is revisited within a rigorous homogenization procedure applied to the microscopic governing equations which describe the local interaction between charged clay particles and a binary monovalent aqueous electrolyte solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymptotic behavior of semidiscrete finite-element approximations of Biot's consolidation problem

TL;DR: In this article, error estimates for spatially discrete Galerkin finite-element approximations of Biot's model for consolidation of saturated porous media are presented, and the short and long-time behaviors of such approximation based on both stable and unstable combinations of finite element spaces of displacement and pore pressure fields are discussed.
