Geomechanical modelling of sinkhole development using distinct elements: model verification for a single void space and application to the Dead Sea area
<p>Mechanical and/or chemical removal of material from the subsurface may generate large subsurface cavities, the destabilisation of which can lead to ground collapse and the formation of sinkholes. Numerical simulation of the interaction of cavity growth, host material deformation and ove...
