Creep and Dilatancy Behavior of Rock Salt around Underground Caverns
In the present paper, the time-dependent behavior of a salt cavern was analyzed using finite element method. A viscoplastic model considering inelastic volume changes was utilized to describe the time-dependent mechanical behavior of rock salt. The model was then implemented in a finite element procedure to analyze the stress and deformation of rock salt around an underground cavern using an axisymmetric representation. Finally, finite element analyses results were compared with those obtained by a viscoplastic model neglecting inelastic volume changes.
