DETERMINATION OF THE GROUND REACTION CURVE USING THE HODOGRAPH METHOD

This paper describes a consistent method for computation of the ground reaction curve in deep tunnels. The technique of calculation is based on Biot's hodograph method which makes use of finite stress-strain relations for the rock. (Author/TRRL)
