Study on the Large Deformation Characteristics and Disaster Mechanism of a Thin-Layer Soft-Rock Tunnel by Xiulian Zhang, Manchao He, Fengnian Wang, Gan Li, Shengxin Xu, Zhigang Tao

“…The results show that (1) the deformation of the surrounding rock of the tunnel has remarkable asymmetry, the deformation of the initial support of the tunnel is significant, and the buried depth of the area where the maximum deformation of the tunnel exceeded 1 m is greater than 500 m; (2) the main factors influencing the deformation of a thin-layer slate tunnel include joint inclination, buried depth, water absorption, and softening of the surrounding rock; and (3) the maximum deformation of the surrounding rock is observed for a joint angle of 45°, at which the buried depth is directly proportional to the deformation and failure of the tunnel. …”

Investigation on Nonlinear Flow Behavior through Rock Rough Fractures Based on Experiments and Proposed 3-Dimensional Numerical Simulation by Xianshan Liu, Man Li, Nandou Zeng, Tao Li

“…Based on the scanning cloud data of different rough fractures, the fractures were reconstructed and introduced into the COMSOL Multiphysics software; a 3-dimensional seepage model for rough fractures was calibrated and simulated the seepage process and corresponding pressure distribution, and explained the asymmetry of flow velocity. And also, the seepage characteristics were researched considering aperture variation of different sample fractures; the results indicated that increasing aperture for same fracture decreased the relative roughness, the fitting coefficients by Forchheimer formula based on the data ∇P~Q decreased, and the figures about the coefficients and corresponding aperture described nonlinear condition of the above rough fractures. …”
