摘要:The anisotropy of deformation and strength behavior in quartz mica schist is fundamental to rock mechanics. Here, we concentrated on the practical application of the numerical simulation of the anisotropy of schist rock. First, the existence of the anisotropy of the schist rock in engineering application was reported, tested in situ, and analyzed. Then, a set of specially designed multi-angle uniaxial compression tests was conducted. Based on these, two numerical simulation methods (explicit and implicit) for anisotropy were demonstrated and discussed. Between the two methods, the implicit method was more practical. Ultimately, the implicit method was adopted to perform an excavation simulation of the exploratory tunnel CPD-1. Our findings demonstrated the feasibility of the implicit method as a practical numerical method to determine the anisotropy of schist rock.
