Preliminary Results of the Three-Dimensional Modeling of the WIPP (Waste Isolation Pilot Plant) Room D Excavation Sequence
A three-dimensional finite element analysis of the creep deformations occurring during excavation of a room in salt is presented. Comparisons with in situ data show that the qualitative response of the excavation process can be captured with current computational tools. Results of the analysis further suggest that due to the very small influence introduced by the mining process, the current practice of modeling drift response with two-dimensional models, assuming instantaneous excavation, is appropriate. 7 refs., 10 figs. (ERA citation 12:028414)
