1 1991 Grn function bad finit lmnt formulation for iotropic pag analyi with fr urfac Abtract A olution procdur uing th Grn function bad finit lmnt mthod (FEM) i prntd for two-dimnional nonlinar tadytat pag analyi with th prnc of fr urfac in iotropic dam. In th prnt algorithm, an itration tratgy i dignd to convrt th ovr-pcifid fr urfac problm to a rgular partial diffrntial quation problm. Thn, at ach itration tp, th Grn function for iotropic linar pag partial diffrntial quation i mployd to contruct th lmnt intrior watr had fild, whil th convntional hap function ar ud for th indpndnt lmnt fram watr had fild. Thn th two indpndnt fild ar connctd by a doubl-variabl hybrid functional to produc th final olving quation ytm. By man of th phyical dfinition of Grn function, all two-dimnional lmnt domain intgral in th prnt algorithm can rduc to on-dimnional lmnt boundary intgral, o that vratil multinod lmnt i contructd to implify mh rcontruction during itration. Finally, numrical rult from th prnt Grn function bad FEM with iotropic Grn function krnl ar compard with othr numrical rult to vrify and dmontrat th prformanc of th prnt mthod.

So th drawdown pag analyi i fatal for th curity of dam ubjctd to watr lvl chang. On of th main difficulti i that th prdiction of th fr urfac, which i uually ovr-pcifid. Du to th complx boundary condition and gomtrical domain, numrical mthod including FEM (Numan, 1973; Bath and Khohgoftaar, 1979; Bath, 006; Luo t al., 008) and boundary

2 199 H. Wang t al. / Grn function bad finit lmnt formulation for iotropic pag analyi with fr urfac lmnt mthod (BEM) (Brbbia and Chang, 1979; Chn t al., 1994; Tay t al., 1997) ar oftn ud to analyz pag problm of th dam with fr urfac. For xampl, Bath and Khohgoftaar dvlopd a FE olution procdur for nonlinar fr urfac pag analyi without mh itration (Bath and Khohgoftaar, 1979). Luo t al. applid th FEM to tablih thr dimnional computational modl of tranint pag for dp foundation pit dwatring in th Yangtz Rivr Dlta (Luo t al., 008). Brbbia and Chang tablihd boundary lmnt formulation for pag problm in aniotropic oil (Brbbia and Chang, 1979). Chn t al. contructd boundary lmnt formulation for pag problm by introducing a dual intgral quation with hypringular intgral (Chn t al., 1994). In addition to th FEM and BEM mntiond abov, mhl/mhfr mthod including th mthod of fundamntal olution (MFS) (Young t al., 006; Chaiyo t al., 011), th natural lmnt mthod (NEM) (Ji t al., 013), th hybrid boundary nod mthod (Tan t al., 010), th moothd fixd grid finit lmnt mthod (Kazmzadh-Pari and Danhmand, 01) and th cald boundary finit-lmnt mthod (Bazyar and Talbi, 014) wr rcntly dvlopd for th numrical dtrmination of th fr urfac in pag problm. Gnrally, th itration procdur i ncary for th fr urfac problm. Howvr, th mh rcontruction during itration incra xtrmly th difficulty of olution. To bypa thi difficulty, dvlopmnt of upr lmnt (or multi-nod larg lmnt) i dird. In thi tudy, anothr numrical mthod diffrnt to th convntional FEM and BEM (Bath, 006; Qin, 1994; 1995; 003; Qin and Mai, 00), calld th fundamntal olution-bad (or Grn function bad) hybrid FEM (HFS-FEM), i formulatd for olving uch problm in two-dimnional iotropic dam and a multi-nod lmnt i dvlopd to modl th rgion clo to th fr urfac for implifying th mh rdfinition. Th HFS-FEM wa firtly prntd by Wang and Qin for hat tranfr analyi (Wang and Qin, 009) and thn wa xtndd to analyz latic tr fild (Wang and Qin, 010b; Wang and Qin, 011a; Wang and Qin, 01b), thrmal proprti of advancd functional/compoit matrial (Wang and Qin, 011b; Wang t al., 01; Wang t al., 013) and biohat tranfr in biological tiu (Wang and Qin, 010a; Wang and Qin, 01a) with gnral/pcial lmnt to achiv th purpo of high accuracy and mh rduction. It hould b mntiond that convrgnc of th HFS-FEM wa fully dicud in th work. Diffrnt to th convntional FEM, th HFS-FEM involv lmnt boundary intgral only, and allow for contructing arbitrary n-idd polygonal lmnt and accuratly calculating fild vrywhr in th domain, du to th u of fundamntal olution. Bid, both th HFS-FEM and th BEM ar dpndnt of fundamntal olution, howvr, th BEM m mor complicatd for olving multi-matrial problm, bcau it rquir parat boundary intgral quation for ach matrial domain and additional connctiv quation for atifying th continuou condition btwn adjacnt matrial domain. In thi tudy, th HFS-FEM wa xtndd for olving two-dimnional nonlinar pag problm with fr urfac. In th prnt hybrid FE algorithm, th linar combination of Grn function of iotropic pag govrning quation i mployd to contruct th lmnt intrior watr had fild by placing ourc point outid th phyical boundary of th domain, a don in th claical MFS (Chn t al., 008), whil th convntional hap function ar ud for th lmnt fram watr had fild, which i indpndnt of th lmnt intrior fild. Thn th two fild ar connctd by a doubl-variabl hybrid functional. Du to phyical dfinition of th Grn function, th lmnt intrior fild can naturally atify th iotropic pag govrning quation and thu, all lmnt domain intgral in th functional ar convrtd

Mot importantly, on can flxibly contruct larg lmnt with mor nod and dg than th convntional plan lmnt for practical u. In th papr, a larg multi-nod lmnt i dignd to modl th rgion narby th fr urfac to allviat difficulty of unavoidabl mh rcontruction during itration procdur.
