AbstractA geo-material failure process analysis, considering the coupling of stress distribution, fluid flow, and element damage evolution, has been used to investigate the mechanisms of crack initiation and propagation around a 2-D cylindrical cavity in heterogeneous stiff soils during grouting. Numerical simulations were performed using the specifically developed computer software F-RFPA2D. The results indicate the analysis is a powerful tool for the studying of soil behavior during fracture grouting. Moreover, they give us a better understanding of the crack initiation and propagation mechanisms during hydrofracturing.
