1 Cylindrical Hole in an Infinite Mohr-Coulomb Medium Cylindrical Hole in an Infinite Mohr-Coulomb Medium 3.1 Problem Statement The problem concerns the determination of stresses and displacements for the case of a cylindrical hole in an infinite elasto-plastic medium subjected to in-situ stresses. The medium is assumed to be linearly elastic, perfectly plastic, with a failure surface defined by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion with both the associated (dilatancy = friction angle) and non-associated (dilatancy = 0) flow rules. This problem tests the Mohr-Coulomb plasticity model, the plane-strain condition and axisymmetric geometry in FLAC. The Mohr-Coulomb material is assigned the following properties: density (ρ) 2500 kg/m 3 shear modulus (G) 2.8 GPa bulk modulus (K) 3.9 GPa cohesion (c) 3.45 MPa friction angle (φ) 30 dilation angle (ψ) 0 and 30 An isotropic in-situ stress state exists with stresses equal to 30 MPa (tension positive). It is assumed that the problem is symmetric about both the horizontal and vertical axes. The radius of the hole is 1 m, and is assumed to be small compared to the length of the cylinder. This permits the use of the plane-strain condition.

2 3-2 Verification Problems 3.2 Closed-Form Solution The yield zone radius, R o, is given analytically by a theoretical model based on the solution of Salencon (1969): R o [ 2 = a K p + 1 P o + P i + q ] 1/(Kp 1) K p 1 q K p 1 (3.1) where: a = radius of hole K p = 1+sin φ 1 sin φ q =2 c tan (45 + φ/2) P o = initial in-situ stress magnitude and P i = internal pressure. The radial stress at the elastic/plastic interface is σ re = 1 K p + 1 (2P o q) (3.2) The stresses in the plastic zone are: σ r = σ θ = q K p 1 (P i + q K p 1 K p(p i + q K p 1 ) ( r a )K p 1 q K p 1 ) ( r a )K p 1 (3.3) where r = distance to the center of the hole. The stresses in the elastic zone are: σ r = P o + (P o σ re ) ( R o r )2 (3.4) σ θ = P o (P o σ re ) ( R o r )2

3 Cylindrical Hole in an Infinite Mohr-Coulomb Medium 3-3 The displacements in the elastic and plastic regions are given by Salencon (1969). For the elastic region, ( u r = P o ( 2P o q K p + 1 ) ) ( R o 2G )(R o ) r (3.5) and for the plastic region: u r = r 2G χ χ = (2ν 1) ( P o + ) q K p 1 ( ) (1 ν)(k 2 ( )( ) p 1) q (Kp 1) ( Ro Ro + P i + K p + K ps K p 1 a r ( + (1 ν) (K )( ) pk ps + 1) (K p + K ps ) ν q ( r ) (Kp 1) P i + K p 1 a ) (Kps +1) (3.6) where: K ps = 1+sin ψ 1 sin ψ ψ = dilation angle ν = Poisson s ratio and G = shear modulus.

4 3-4 Verification Problems 3.3 FLAC Model The problem is first modeled as a two-dimensional plane-strain calculation using quarter-symmetry. The boundary conditions applied to the model are shown in Figure 3.1. The area representing the problem is divided into finite-difference zones, as shown in Figures 3.2 and 3.3, using the FISH data file HOLE.FIS (see Section 3 in the FISH volume). The outer boundary is located 10 m (five hole diameters) from the hole center. The model contains 900 rectangular zones oriented in a radial pattern, as indicated in Figures 3.2 and 3.3. This pattern minimizes the influence of the grid on localization effects (as discussed in Section in the User s Guide). P o P o Figure 3.1 Model for FLAC analysis quarter-symmetry

6 3-6 Verification Problems The problem is also modeled using axisymmetric geometry. Figure 3.4 shows the boundary conditions, and Figure 3.5 shows the zone geometry created for this calculation. A height of two zones is used to facilitate stress contour plots. Both models are subjected to an isotropic compressive stress of 30 MPa. The initial stress state is applied throughout each model first then the hole is removed. The data file MHOLE.DAT in Section 3.6 contains the FLAC commands for both the quartersymmetry grid model and the axisymmetric model. The comparison of FLAC results to the analytical solution is performed using FISH functions also contained in this data file. The theoretical relations are solved in FISH function theor. Then, the FLAC values for stress and displacement are compared to the solution values. The error distribution in radial and tangential stress is calculated in the function evals, and the error distribution in displacement is calculated in the function evald.

Normalized stresses, σ r /P o and σ θ /P o, are plotted versus normalized radius, r/a, infigure 3.6 normalized displacement, u r /a, is plotted versus normalized radius in Figure 3.7 for the associated flow case, and in Figure 3.8 for the nonassociated flow case. (Note that the stress states are identical for both plastic flow rules.) The error distribution throughout the entire FLAC grid is also presented. Figures 3.9 through 3.11 show contour plots of tangential stress error, radial stress error and radial displacement error, respectively, for the non-associated flow case.
