Simulation sequential embankment construction and earthquake analysis after it in Abaqus

In this tutorial, the simulation sequential embankment construction and earthquake analysis after it in Abaqus has been investigated. The two-dimensional space is used. The model contains two-part, embankment and soil. The embankment separated into some regions to make sequential construction and soil separated to two-section, dry and saturated. You can see a figure of the assembled parts at below

The elastic-plastic material with permeability behavior is used for the soil. In this tutorial, eight steps are used. In the first step, the Geostatic step is implied to make equilibrium between the elements of the soil. In the five next steps, the soil step is used to make embankment construction. After the consolidation is considered a soil step with the long-time period. In the end, the dynamic implicit step to apply earthquake acceleration is used. In the interaction, the model change is used to apply the embankment layers in each step. The body force is applied to the dry and saturated soil in step one. The body force is considered for each layer of the embankment at the specific step. The proper boundary condition is assigned to the bottom and the sides of the soil and these boundaries are edited in the earthquake step. The pore fluid boundary is applied to the dry soil with zero value. The Geostatic stress as the predefined field is assigned to the dry and saturated the soil. The earthquake load as two vertical and horizontal acceleration is implied to the model to investigate the stress distribution after embankment construction and earthquake phenomenon. The mesh should be fine to have good results

After the simulation, all results for the embankment construction and earthquake such as stress, strain, displacement, pore pressure,… are obtainable. You can see some figures for the results below
