There are 4 seepage models in the FLAC3D finite element software; it is decided by selecting proper seepage models whether the result of numerical calculation is right or not. The seepage field distribution in threedimensional space is complicate; as a result, it is difficult to decide a quantitative yardstick. There are different selection methods in different references. It is necessary to make stress analysis on the 4 seepage models, so as to choose a simple, rapid and rational model selection method. Four construction cases based on the 4 seepage models are designed, with a 100 m×100 m×10 m isotropic elastic cube as an example. The total stresses and seepage field distributions of the 4 construction cases are compared. The conclusions drawn are as follows: 1) For model A and model C, the soil skeleton carries all loads; for other 2 models, the fluid carries partial load too. 2) The load sharing ratio of fluid is based on the stiffness ratio and time. The solidfluid coupling process in FLAC3D is realized by adjusting the stiffness ratio and switching mechanicsfluid process. So far, the calculation of solidfluid coupling is almost based on FLAC3D in China. The conclusions can be applied to foundation engineering and underground engineering, and the paper can provide reference for similar projects.
