Stability analysis of support systems using a coupled FEM-DFN model (Case study: a diversion tunnel at Lorestan dam site, Iran)

M. Noroozi; R. Rafiee; M. Najafi

Volume 9, Issue 2 , April 2018, , Pages 485-497

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2018.6052.1422

Abstract
  Various structural discontinuities, which form a discrete fracture network, play a significant role in the failure conditions and stability of the rock masses around underground excavations. Several continuum numerical methods have been used to study the stability of underground excavations in jointed ...  Read More
