10. H modeling#
10.1. Characteristics of modeling#
The characteristics are the same as for G modeling.
10.2. Characteristics of the mesh#
The mesh is composed of 6 elements of type PYRAM13au instead of a HEXA20.
The mesh is shown in the figure.

10.3. Tested sizes and results#
The minimum and maximum values of the pore pressure on the lower face and the upper face of the cube are tested with respect to the previous modeling.
These results, which are very similar to those obtained in G modeling, ensure that the behavior
The hydraulic system of the HM_PYRAM13 mesh is identical to that of the HM_HEXA20 mesh.
