Hydro-chemo-mechanical modelling of tunnels in sulfated rocks

Abstract: Permission is granted by ICE Publishing to print one copy for personal use. Any other use of these PDF files is subject to reprint fees.A modelling procedure to address the tunnel–anhydritic rock interaction is described in this paper. The model incorporates the basic physico-chemical phenomena involved in rock swelling, often observed during excavation and subsequent operation of tunnels. It includes (a) a provision for rock damage during tunnel excavation, (b) the precipitation of gypsum crystals in disconti… Show more

“…The inversely determined parameter b of 2.5 is similar to the estimate by Ramon et al () and yields a bulking coefficient γ of 0.15 ± 0.11 (For further details on γ , refer to the supporting information). Thus, according to the theoretical basis of γ a large part of the gypsum crystals precipitates in already existing cavities and therefore does not cause significant deformation.…”

“…Consequently, the solution volume V in contact with the mineral equals the immobile porosity ( im ) instead of the total porosity. It should be noted that this assumption is different from the model of Ramon et al (2017), who assumed that gypsum crystal growth occurs solely in fractures. The focus of their study, however, was on mechanical considerations such as fracture opening.…”
