Derivation and application of an analytical rock displacement solution on rectangular cavern wall using the inverse mapping method.

Rectangular caverns are increasingly used in underground engineering projects, the failure mechanism of rectangular cavern wall rock is significantly different as a result of the cross-sectional shape and variations in wall stress distributions. However, the conventional computational method always...
