Abstract

Finite element analyses of tunnels in saturated porous medium were performed using the elastoplastic-viscoplastic bounding surface model. In this paper, the model and the finite element formulation are described and examples of model prediction and accuracy of the finite element formulation are given. The transient analysis of tunnel problem is then carried out, and the comparison of the finite element results with the field measurements demonstrate the ability of the bounding surface model to solve problems of tunneling in saturated porous medium.
