A Novel Closed-Form Solution for Circular Openings in Generalized Hoek-Brown Media
A novel closed-form solution is presented in this paper for the estimation of displacements around circular openings in a brittle rock mass subject to a hydrostatic stress field. The rock mass is assumed to be elastic-brittle-plastic media governed by the generalized Hoek-Brown yield criterion. The...
