Simulation analysis and effect evaluation of excavation and support of underground cavern group

Abstract

According to the main construction procedures of underground caverns, an analysis model for the excavation of a certain pumping station underground cavern group was established, and its excavation and support process are dynamically simulated. The calculation schemes of unsupport and support are compared with indicators such as plastic zone, bolt axial force and displacement field distribution. The analysis results show that after the support, the plastic zone distribution and deformation characteristics of the rock around the cave are greatly improved. The bolt axial force also meets the requirements, indicating that the support parameters and support methods are reasonable. The supporting effect has been well simulated and realized.
