Abstract

The stability and support effect of the tunnel has highly buried depth and is passed through by complex structure planes.Based on the established joint rock tunnel model,three-dimensional discrete element method is adapted to simulate the variation of surrounding rock displacement and stress response after excavation and bolting support,respectively.The results show that the deformation of surrounding rock appears a little large after excavation;it is necessary to consider the influence of underground water on the tunnel rock;the tunnel need to be supported;the displacement of tunnel rock decreases after being supported,and the stability of the tunnel surrounding rock is enhanced.
