(Laboratoire Navier, Champs-sur-Marne, France) Trivellato, E. (Laboratoire Navier, Champs-sur-Marne, France - Andra, Châtenay-Malabry cedex, France) Vu, M.N. (Andra, Châtenay-Malabry cedex, France) Date 2016-06-27 Abstract The aim of this work is to investigate the contribution of an elastic-damage model to describe the evolution and asymmetries sometimes noticed in the failure zone around tunnels. The numerical simulations for deep tunnels excavated in the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone showed that a damage mechanics model can explain certain phenomena regarding the localised shape and extension of this excavation-induced failure zone To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:7e465d58-082c-453f-ae3d-3174e8d8b387 Part of collection Conference proceedings Document type conference paper Rights (c) 2016 The authors Files PDF Damage model contribution ... rocks.pdf 693.55 KB Close viewer /islandora/object/uuid:7e465d58-082c-453f-ae3d-3174e8d8b387/datastream/OBJ/view
