[Question #197775]: porosity change in undrained test

Hi,

I'm conducting an undrained test using peri3dcontroller with goal=(1.e-1,-1.e-1,0,0,0,0) and stressMask=0. So there will be no volume change and the porosity is expected to be constant. However I called utils.porosity() to record the quantity and observed a change from 0.171 to 0.160 (in 2D). Is this due to the large strain (10% axial compression) applied?

Thanks in advance.
