BEM-DDM modelling of rock damage and its implications on rock laboratory strength and in-situ stresses
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Within the framework of JAEA's Research and Development on deep geological environments for assessing the safety and reliability of the disposal technology for nuclear waste, this study was conducted to determine the effects of sample damage on the strength obtained from laboratory results (uniaxial compression and Brazilian test). Results of testing on samples of Toki granite taken at Shobasama and at the construction site for the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory (MIU) at Mizunami, Gifu Pref., Japan, were analysed. Some spatial variation of the results along the boreholes suggested the presence of a correlation between the laboratory strength and the in-situ stresses measured by means of the hydro-fracturing method. To confirm this, numerical analyses of the drilling process in brittle rock by means of a BEM-DDM program (FRACOD{sup 2D}) were carried out to study the induced fracture patterns. These fracture patterns were compared with similar results reported by other published studies and were found to be realistic. The correlation between strength and in-situ stresses could then be exploited to estimate the stresses and the location of core discing observed in boreholes where stress measurements were not available. A correction of the laboratory strength results was also proposed to take into account sample damage during drilling. Modelling of Brazilian tests shows that the calculated fracture patterns determine the strength of the models. This is different from the common assumption that failure occurs when the uniform tensile stress in the sample reaches the tensile strength of the rock material. Based on the modelling results, new Brazilian tests were carried out on samples from borehole MIZ-1 that confirmed the failure mechanism numerically observed. A numerical study of the fracture patterns induced by removal of the overburden on a large scale produces fracture patterns and stress distributions corresponding to observations in crystalline hard rock in Canada, Japan and Sweden. In particular, despite the uncertainties affecting the choice of the applied loads and displacement boundary conditions, the depth at which fracturing due to removal of the overburden stops could be predicted and, for some parameter combinations, corresponds well with the limit between the Upper Highly Fractured Domain (UHFD) and the Lower Sparsely Fractured Domain (LSFD) observed at Shobasama and the MIU Construction Site. The fact that the stresses predicted close to the bedrock surface were very close to failure could also explain the reason why the strength of the intact rock increases almost linearly with depth in the UHFD. The numerical studies at different scale indicate the need for a robust technique for choosing the correct length of the newly initiated cracks in the BEM-DDM. To solve this problem, the concept of 'weakest crack' was proposed in this study based on fractal geometry. The 11 of the presented papers are indexed individually. (J.P.N.)

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
