An application shows how phenomena observed in laboratory tests on axially perforated cylinder sample, such as softening, dilatancy, spalling and radial deformation into the axial bore as well as spalling can be numerically simulated with the model Hou/Lux. Furthermore,it is then evaluated against the measured permeability and stress profiles of a 37-year-old drift at the Sondershausen minein,Germany. Satisfactory agreement is obtained between the calculated and measured data.展开更多
