Prediction and Assessment of Lateral Displacement of Rock Mass Along the Length of the Horseshoe Cavern – A Numerical Modelling ApproachBy Saikat Kuili, Vedala Rama Sastry Rama Sastry
Abstract: The stability of the underground structures is a key to successful underground mining. Caverns are large underground openings constructed in rock mass for a variety of purposes. The properties of intact rock mass are generally overshadowed by the properties of discontinuities, if the discontinuities are present. Mechanisms of deformation and failure of underground openings in jointed rock mass are determined by the characteristics of the geometrical distribution of discontinuities. This …
