“…The flow channels are explicitly demonstrated by the flow vector in Figure 13. Only some of the fractures contribute to the fluid flow, consistent with the observation in the previous reference [26]. The highest fluid flow rate is found at the junction of the fracture and the bottom slab, at approximately 0.0015 m/s, an increase of approximately four orders of magnitude compared to the absence of the fracture.…”

“…Numerical models for water inflow in tunnel construction can be categorized into three main categories: the continuous uniform method [22][23][24], the discrete fracture network (DFN) [25,26], and the equivalent discrete fracture network (EDFN) [27,28]. The continuous medium approach is commonly used to study water seepage in formations with homogeneous properties, where the properties of a porous medium, including many solid particles and pores, are homogenized and quantified within a representative unit volume [29].…”

“…Therefore, the rock mass is composed of a matrix and fractures, as shown in Figure 1. After a long period of evolution, the discontinuous fractures are connected with each other, forming a complex network (Karimzade et al, 2017; Kim et al, 2007; Lokhande et al, 2015). The natural fractures not only determine the integrity of rock mass but also influence the mechanical properties.…”

“…After obtaining the fracture location, two angles (i.e., dip and strike angles) and two edges (i.e., height and length) are then required to specify these fractures completely. Here we use a lognormal distribution and a Fisher distribution to generate the angles and the edges, respectively (Karimzade et al, ): L=exp)(μl+lσl θ=acos)(ln)(1RUK+1 where L is the length of the fracture edge; l is a random number generated from a standard normal distribution; μ l and σ l are the mean and the standard deviation of standard normal distribution, respectively; θ is the dip or strike angle; R U is a random number generated from a uniform distribution between 0 and 1; and K is the Fisher constant. Another significant parameter is the fracture aperture, which may be described with a lognormal distribution.…”
