Benchmark solutions of large-strain cavity contraction for deep tunnel convergence in geomaterials

To provide precise prediction of tunnelling-induced deformation of the surrounding geomaterials, a framework for derivation of rigorous large-strain solutions of unified spherical and cylindrical cavity contraction is presented for description of confinement-convergence responses for deep tunnels in...
