Abstract:

Virtual element method is put forward for seepage discharge calculation. The equations of finite element method about virtual element are derived; and then the finite element method disposal techniques are discussed; so that the theoretical system and application method can be well established. Based on the analysis of calculation examples of centripetal seepage problem and flat-bottomed dam foundation seepage, it is shown that the discharge calculation with virtual element method will get a high precision. Virtual element method is endowed with unique superiority in the aspects of finite element method application.

Key words: seepage, discharge calculation, virtual element method, midline method
