Hi everyone, I am working on the definiton of a fluid fracture. I defined the amplitude (of the injection rate) as follow:*Amplitude, name=volumerate
0.0,0.0,10,-1 . I first runned successfully a simulation for a total time of 5s defining the step as follow:
*STEP,name=Step2,NLGEOM=YES,inc=30000,UNSYMM=YES
*SOILS,consolidation,end=PERIOD,utol=10,STABILIZE
1E-2,5,1E-7,0.1
*cflow,amplitude=volumerate
However, if i want to inject for a longer period of time (10s) so : *SOILS,consolidation,end=PERIOD,utol=10,STABILIZE
1E-2,10,1E-7,0.1 . The solution is different also in the first 5 seconds, which doesn't make sense from my point of view becuase i didn't change the amplitude definition. So my question is, does the period of injection (defined in the *SOILS ) affect the injection rate ? I hope it is clear. Thank you in advance for your help.
