About
The research project aims to develop an advanced rock constitutive model that can simulate the static and dynamic response of rock under uniaxial and triaxial stress states. The model will be tested experimentally through physical, petrographic, and mechanical tests, and the model equations will be produced. The model will be implemented in finite element software Abaqus using a modified Euler backward return algorithm, and a set of tunnel excavation analysis will be performed using the finite element method.
