This simulation study shows how widely different model approaches can be adapted to model the evolution of the excavation
disturbed zone (EDZ) around a heated nuclear waste emplacement drift in fractured rock. The study includes modeling of coupled
thermal-hydrological-mechanical (THM) processes, with simplified consideration of chemical coupling in terms of time-dependent
strength degradation or subcritical crack growth. The different model approaches applied in this study include boundary element,
finite element, finite difference, particle mechanics, and elasto-plastic cellular automata methods. The simulation results
indicate that thermally induced differential stresses near the top of the emplacement drift may cause progressive failure
and permeability changes during the first 100 years (i.e., after emplacement and drift closure). Moreover, the results indicate
that time-dependent mechanical changes may play only a small role during the first 100 years of increasing temperature and
thermal stress, whereas such time-dependency is insignificant after peak temperature, because of decreasing thermal stress. 相似文献

In this paper, we investigate the influence of the excavation damaged zone (EDZ) on the geomechanical performance of compressed air energy storage (CAES) in lined rock caverns. We conducted a detailed characterization of the EDZ in rock caverns that have been excavated for a Korean pilot test program on CAES in (concrete) lined rock caverns at shallow depth. The EDZ was characterized by measurements of P- and S-wave velocities and permeability across the EDZ and into undisturbed host rock. Moreover, we constructed an in situ concrete lining model and conducted permeability measurements in boreholes penetrating the concrete, through the EDZ and into the undisturbed host rock. Using the site-specific conditions and the results of the EDZ characterization, we carried out a model simulation to investigate the influence of the EDZ on the CAES performance, in particular related to geomechanical responses and stability. We used a modeling approach including coupled thermodynamic multiphase flow and geomechanics, which was proven to be useful in previous generic CAES studies. Our modeling results showed that the potential for inducing tensile fractures and air leakage through the concrete lining could be substantially reduced if the EDZ around the cavern could be minimized. Moreover, the results showed that the most favorable design for reducing the potential for tensile failure in the lining would be a relatively compliant concrete lining with a tight inner seal, and a relatively stiff (uncompliant) host rock with a minimized EDZ. Because EDZ compliance depends on its compressibility (or modulus) and thickness, care should be taken during drill and blast operations to minimize the damage to the cavern walls. 相似文献

硬脆性围岩在开挖完成后，其强度在高应力的影响下具有明显的时间效应，这导致围岩开挖损伤区的发展也呈现出与时间相关的特征。在岩石强度时效性演化模型的基础上，以锦屏二级水电站试验洞钻孔摄像、声波、变形监测等开挖损伤区实测结果为目标函数，采用正交设计方法、最小二乘支持向量机模型、粒子群优化算法等方法，建立了考虑时间效应的LSSVM-PSO智能反演分析方法，并以锦屏二级水电站试验洞为例，研究了开挖完成后的25 d里，围岩强度在高地应力条件下的时效性演化特征，进而获得这一时段内开挖损伤区扩展过程。研究结果表明：（1）高应力地区，隧洞开挖后，围岩损伤区的主要扩展方向受地应力控制，且最大扩展方向为最小主应力方向，且破坏区（破坏接近度FAI≥2）也集中于该方向； （2）开挖损伤区面积随时间近似呈S形曲线变化，表明开挖损伤区初始发展较为缓慢，随着时间推移呈现线性增加的趋势，最后又逐渐趋于稳定；（3）开挖后第3～10 d为开挖损伤区快速增长阶段。该研究成果对高应力地区硬脆性围岩开挖损伤区时效性演化研究具有指导意义。 相似文献

This paper presents an international, multiple-code, simulation study of coupled thermal, hydrological, and mechanical (THM)
processes and their effect on permeability and fluid flow in fractured rock around heated underground nuclear waste emplacement
drifts. Simulations were conducted considering two types of repository settings (1) open emplacement drifts in relatively
shallow unsaturated volcanic rock, and (2) backfilled emplacement drifts in deeper saturated crystalline rock. The results
showed that for the two assumed repository settings, the dominant mechanism of changes in rock permeability was thermal–mechanically
induced closure (reduced aperture) of vertical fractures, caused by thermal stress resulting from repository-wide heating
of the rock mass. The magnitude of thermal–mechanically induced changes in permeability was more substantial in the case of
an emplacement drift located in a relatively shallow, low-stress environment where the rock is more compliant, allowing more
substantial fracture closure during thermal stressing. However, in both of the assumed repository settings in this study,
the thermal–mechanically induced changes in permeability caused relatively small changes in the flow field, with most changes
occurring in the vicinity of the emplacement drifts. 相似文献

Around galleries excavated at depth in geological media, the creation of a damaged zone with significant irreversible deformation is generally unavoidable. In the case of a geological disposal system for high-level radioactive waste, the resulting change in the host rock properties in this damaged zone may potentially be important with respect to the long-term evolution and the performance of that system. In this context, predicting the extent of the so-called Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) and, possibly, the fractures’ network topology remains a challenge. This study is aimed to simulate numerically the extension of this zone at the large scale’s excavation, around the Connecting gallery (HADES URL, Mol, Belgium), in Boom clay host rock through analyzing the evolution of strain localization in shear bands mode. To realistically model the involved phenomena, the concrete lining is considered on the gallery wall highlighting its impacts on the evolution of convergence and EDZ around the gallery. The focus of the current paper is made on analyzing the coupled hydro-mechanical behavior of Boom clay host rock during and after the gallery excavation with respect to the evolution of localized shear bands around the gallery. This study is accompanied by the analysis of the contact mechanism on the interface between the clay massive and the lining. The obtained results reveal some interesting features regarding the contact phenomenon relatively to the evolution pattern of shear bands within the clay around the gallery. To assess the reliability of the proposed approach, a discussion on some in-situ observations during the gallery’s construction is also performed based on which a good agreement is found between the in-situ evidence and simulated results. 相似文献

Stress-Dependent Fluid Flow and Permeability in Fractured Media: from Lab Experiments to Engineering Applications 总被引：5，自引：3，他引：5

Summary. Permeability is a physical property in rocks of extreme importance in energy engineering, civil and environmental engineering,
and various areas of geology. Early on, fractures in fluid flow models were assumed to be rigid. However, experimental research
and field data confirmed that stress-deformation behavior in fractures is a key factor governing their permeability tensor.
Although extensive research was conducted in the past, the three-dimensional stress-permeability relationships, particularly
in the inelastic deformation stage, still remain unclear. In this paper, laboratory experiments conducted on large concrete
blocks with randomly distributed fractures and rock core samples are reported to investigate fluid flow and permeability variations
under uniaxial, biaxial and triaxial complete stress-strain process. Experimental relationships among flowrate, permeability
and fracture aperture in the fractured media are investigated. Results show that the flowrate and stress/aperture exhibit
“cubic law” relationship for the randomly distributed fractures.
A permeability-aperture relationship is proposed according to the experimental results. Based on this relationship, stress-dependent
permeability in a set of fractures is derived in a three-dimensional domain by using a coupled stress and matrix-fracture
interactive model. A double porosity finite element model is extended by incorporating such stress-dependent permeability
effects. The proposed model is applied to examine permeability variations induced by stress redistributions for an inclined
borehole excavated in a naturally fractured formation. The results indicate that permeability around underground openings
depends strongly on stress changes and orientations of the natural fractures. 相似文献

The study of the creation and evolution of the excavation disturbed zone (EDZ) in argillaceous rocks is a major issue for
the safety of nuclear wastes underground repositories. In this context, the argillaceous Tournemire site has provided a unique
opportunity to study the evolution of the EDZ with time thanks to the existence of three openings of different ages. A thorough
characterization of the EDZ has been conducted by different means such as visual observation, analysis of samples extracted
from drilled boreholes, EDZ permeability measurements, etc. On the basis of these measurements, a conceptual model of the
EDZ initiation and propagation at the Tournemire site has been proposed. In order to validate this model, numerical simulations
of increasing complexity have been carried out. In a first attempt, the response of the rock mass to the excavation phase,
followed by seasonal cyclic variations of temperature and relative humidity inside the opening, has been simulated by means
of a purely mechanical analysis, using a simple elastic material model. The EDZ has been estimated by post-processing the
calculated stress states, using a Mohr–Coulomb failure criterion. The results obtained show that no EDZ could be predicted
unless adopting a low cohesion value for the rock mass. Moreover, the deferred nature of the EDZ formation in Tournemire could
not be reproduced. These limitations have then been suppressed by using a coupled viscoplastic-damaging mechanical model,
the parameters of which have been identified from different laboratory experiments. With this model, a time evolution of the
EDZ could be predicted, but the EDZ pattern could not match the one observed in situ. Finally, in view of the importance of
the hydraulic couplings, unsaturated hydro-mechanical calculations have been carried out to investigate the effect of the
numerous seasonal variations cycles and the resulting shrinkage. 相似文献

This paper presents a generalized procedure for the identification of rock blocks formed by finite‐sized fractures around complex excavations. It was assumed that the study domain could be partitioned into a finite number of subdomains, where each either was, or could be, approximated by a convex polyhedron, and the fractures were finite in size and disc shaped and were defined using the location of the disc center, orientation, radius, cohesion coefficient, and friction angle. These may be either deterministic fractures obtained from a field survey or random fractures generated by stochastic modeling. In addition, the rock mass could be heterogeneous; i.e. the rock matrix and individual fractures could have different parameters in different parts. The procedure included: (1) partitioning of the model domain into convex subdomains; (2) removing noncontributive fractures. A fracture was deemed contributive when it played a part in block formation; i.e. it formed at least one surface with some of the blocks; (3) decomposing the subdomains into element blocks with fractures; (4) restoring the infinite fractures to finite discs; and (5) assembling the modeling domain. Our procedure facilitates robust computational programming, and is flexible in dealing with the problem of a complex study domain and with rock heterogeneity. A computer code was developed based on the algorithm developed in this study. The algorithm and computer program were verified using an analytical method, and were used to solve the problem of block prediction around the underground powerhouse of the Three Gorges Project.

An embedded fracture modeling framework for simulation of hydraulic fracturing and shear stimulation 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

A numerical modeling framework is described that is able to calculate the coupled processes of fluid flow, geomechanics, and rock failure for application to general engineering problems related to reservoir stimulation, including hydraulic fracturing and shear stimulation. The numerical formulation employs the use of an embedded fracture modeling approach, which provides several advantages over more traditional methods in terms of computational complexity and efficiency. Specifically, the embedded fracture modeling strategy avoids the usual requirement that the discretization of the fracture domain conforms to the discretization of the rock volume surrounding the fractures. As fluid is exchanged between the two domains, conservation of mass is guaranteed through a coupling term that appears as a simple source term in the governing mass balance equations. In this manner, as new tensile fractures nucleate and propagate subject to mechanical effects, numerical complexities associated with the introduction of new fracture control volumes are largely negated. In addition, the ability to discretize the fractures and surrounding rock volume independently provides the freedom to choose an acceptable level of discretization for each domain separately. Three numerical examples were performed to demonstrate the utility of the embedded fracture model for application to problems involving fluid flow, mechanical deformation, and rock failure. The results of the numerical examples confirm that the embedded fracture model was able to capture accurately the complex and nonlinear evolution of reservoir permeability as new fractures propagate through the reservoir and as fractures fail in shear. 相似文献

北京西山房山岩体西北部强变形带的成因新解 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
北京西山房山岩体西北缘不对称发育一条弧形塑性强变形带,前人根据岩体东南部组构缓倾和岩体内部强应变分布特征提出岩浆斜向底辟侵位模式(王人镜等,1990;张吉顺和李志中,1990)。本文在前人研究的基础上,对房山岩体的组构进行系统观测,研究了西北缘固态塑性强变形带地质特征,着重探讨了岩体侵位时围岩热结构状态。文章认为岩浆同侵位固态塑性强变形带的形成需要早期岩浆进入准固态-固态和后期岩浆膨胀动力这两个必要条件。房山岩体西北部的强变形带是由于岩体侵位时西部围岩的温度较低,岩浆较早进入准固态-固态,后期岩浆侵位时膨胀动力双重因素造成的,提出了围岩热结构状态是房山岩体不对称的固态塑性强变形带的控制因素,而不是岩浆斜向底辟侵位的结果。这一研究成果不仅较合理地解释了房山岩体强变形带不对称发育特征,而且对研究同类花岗质岩体的定位机制有一定启示意义。 相似文献

This paper describes current knowledge about the nature of and potential for thermo–hydro–mechanical–chemical modelling of the excavation damaged zone (EDZ) around the excavations for an underground radioactive waste repository. In the first part of the paper, the disturbances associated with excavation are explained, together with reviews of Workshops that have been held on the subject. In the second part of the paper, the results of a DECOVALEX [DEmonstration of COupled models and their VALidation against EXperiment: research funded by an international consortium of radioactive waste regulators and implementers (http://www.decovalex.com)] research programme on modelling the EDZ are presented. Four research teams used four different models to simulate the complete stress–strain curve for Avro granite from the Swedish Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory. Subsequent research extended the work to computer simulation of the evolution of the repository using a ‘wall-block model’ and a ‘near-field model’. This included assessing the evolution of stress, failure and permeability and time-dependent effects during repository evolution. As discussed, all the computer models are well suited to sensitivity studies for evaluating the influence of their respective supporting parameters on the complete stress–strain curve for rock and for modelling the EDZ. 相似文献

Numerical Simulation of 3D Hydraulic Fracturing Based on an Improved Flow-Stress-Damage Model and a Parallel FEM Technique 总被引：4，自引：4，他引：0

The failure mechanism of hydraulic fractures in heterogeneous geological materials is an important topic in mining and petroleum engineering. A three-dimensional (3D) finite element model that considers the coupled effects of seepage, damage, and the stress field is introduced. This model is based on a previously developed two-dimensional (2D) version of the model (RFPA2D-Rock Failure Process Analysis). The RFPA3D-Parallel model is developed using a parallel finite element method with a message-passing interface library. The constitutive law of this model considers strength and stiffness degradation, stress-dependent permeability for the pre-peak stage, and deformation-dependent permeability for the post-peak stage. Using this model, 3D modelling of progressive failure and associated fluid flow in rock are conducted and used to investigate the hydro-mechanical response of rock samples at laboratory scale. The responses investigated are the axial stress–axial strain together with permeability evolution and fracture patterns at various stages of loading. Then, the hydraulic fracturing process inside a rock specimen is numerically simulated. Three coupled processes are considered: (1) mechanical deformation of the solid medium induced by the fluid pressure acting on the fracture surfaces and the rock skeleton, (2) fluid flow within the fracture, and (3) propagation of the fracture. The numerically simulated results show that the fractures from a vertical wellbore propagate in the maximum principal stress direction without branching, turning, and twisting in the case of a large difference in the magnitude of the far-field stresses. Otherwise, the fracture initiates in a non-preferred direction and plane then turns and twists during propagation to become aligned with the preferred direction and plane. This pattern of fracturing is common when the rock formation contains multiple layers with different material properties. In addition, local heterogeneity of the rock matrix and macro-scale stress fluctuations due to the variability of material properties can cause the branching, turning, and twisting of fractures. 相似文献

The full-scale mine-by (MB) test conducted in 2008 in the Mont Terri underground rock laboratory (Switzerland) investigated the deformation and the coupled hydro-mechanical behavior of the Opalinus Clay in response to tunnel excavations. The Opalinus Clay is currently under investigation in Switzerland as a potential host rock for geologic disposal of high-level radioactive waste. To further improve the understanding and modeling of the coupled processes and their impact on the performance of a geologic repository in Opalinus Clay, a newly developed two-part Hooke’s model (TPHM) was implemented into a geomechanical simulator. A three-dimensional simulation model based on the TPHM was then developed to predict the deformation and pore pressure responses in the near field of the MB Niche 2 test at the Mont Terri Site. The usefulness and validity of the TPHM are demonstrated by the consistency between simulation results and field observations. Simulation results show that the pore pressure disturbance becomes visible at about 11 m ahead of the mine-by excavation advancing face (along the longitudinal direction of the MB Niche). The results also demonstrate that there exists a good correlation between the excavation damage zone (EDZ) and the pore-pressure evolution, which may have important practical implications for monitoring EDZ evolution with pore-pressure sensors. The simulation results, which are sensitive to the constitutive relationships used in the model, capture both the observed displacements and the size of the damage zone, whereas the approach based on the conventional Hooke’s law underestimates both. The comparison between simulated and observed results also indicates that laboratory-measured mechanical properties can be used to accurately predict field-scale mechanical deformations, as long as valid constitutive relationships are employed. 相似文献

Stability and deformation of rock masses around tunnels in underground mines play significant roles on the safety and efficient exploitation of the ore body. Therefore, understanding of geomechanical behavior around underground excavations is important and necessary. In this study, a three-dimensional numerical model was built and stress analyses were performed by using 3DEC software for an underground mine in USA using the available information on stratigraphy, geological structures and mechanical properties of rock masses and discontinuities. Investigations were conducted to study the effect of the lateral stress ratio (K0), material constitutive models, boundary conditions and rock support system on the stability of rock masses around the tunnels. Results of the stress, displacement, failure zone, accumulated plastic shear strain and post-failure cohesion distributions were obtained for these cases. Finally, comparisons of the deformation were made between the field deformation measurements and numerical simulations. 相似文献
