In an earlier work, we introduced the two-grid method for unstructured tetrahedra applied to staggered solution of coupled flow and poromechanics and demonstrated its accuracy for the benchmark Mandel’s problem. In this work, we employ the two-grid method to study surface deformation and fault stability in a field scale carbon storage project.

The friction stir welding (FSW) is known as non-melting joining. It used widely in the field of industry. Numerical analysis models for FSW also have been developed. In these models, the most frequently used method is a grid method (finite element method or finite difference method). However it is difficult or troublesome to calculate the advective term both for momentum and temperature employing these methods. It is also difficult to calculate the big deformation of the material's free surface. Moreover, complex process is required to analyze the dissimilar joining with respect to dealing with substance transfer. In this paper, to avoid these difficulties, particle method is adopted for FSW simulation. In particle method, advective term, substance transfer, and surface deformation are calculated automatically mainly because that Lagrangian approach is used. To verify the effectiveness of this method, fluid motion around the tool is examined by particle trace. As a result, relations between the rotating speed of the tool and area of plastic flow is evaluated.
