Stability Analysis of an Underground Pumping Station Group of China

Abstract:

The stress and strain of surrounding rock and the development of plastic zone in the process of excavation of large underground cavern group have been the main concern of the design unit. The numerical simulation software is used to analyze the stability of caverns of an underground pumping station. The stress and displacement of the surrounding rock and the development of the plastic zone in the process of excavation are analyzed in detail. The results show that the tensile stress is easily generated in the side wall, and the maximum value can reach 4 M Pa. Correspondingly, the maximum displacement of the side wall part can reach 4 cm. The plastic zone is mainly concentrated in the surrounding rock near the side wall, the thickness can reach about 9 m. In general, the excavation of underground caverns is basically stable.
