Wrong pore pressure and effective stress state in ABAQUS

Submitted by Valdemar9000 on

Hey.

I want to model an anchored sheet pile wall placed in a completly saturated clay material, where

the excavation steps on the left side of the wall have to be taken into account.

I am using the keyword in ABAQUS "*Model change, Remove" to remove my elements, so I can

simulate the excavation steps. Unfortunately, my pore pressures seem stranges in the

model when I am using this keyword.
