| چکیده | ||
| In this paper, the behavior of a fault is studied using a constant strain joint model. A combination of slider and spring is used to simulate the shear behavior of faults in the plastic region in contrast to the previous models that have only used an elastic shear spring. Furthermore, the proposed joint element was used to study the behavior of a fault crossing a tunnel regarding the represented shear plastic and dilation behavior of this joint element, and for this purpose a Matlab based program called FEAFB (Finite element analysis of fault behavior) has been developed. The corresponding normal and shear stresses, shear strengths and the factors of safety, for different horizontal to vertical stress ratios and shear stiffness are analyzed and compared to the results of a similar modeling in UDEC program. The analysis indicates that the normal and shear stresses, and the shear strength are increased in the fault elements near the tunnel, and they are decreased in the elements becoming far from the tunnel surface. However, the safety factor can either increase or decrease as it becomes closer to the tunnel surface, depending on the horizontal to vertical stress ratio. Moreover, it is also shown that safety factor depends upon the shear stiffness, i.e., as shear stiffness increases, shear stress increases, and as a result, the safety factor decreases. | ||
