two-dimensional version of tunnel wall; isotropic elastic bodies; infinitesimal displacement; continuous; uniqueness; existence
Summary:
The goal of the paper is the study of the contact problem of two elastic bodies which is applicable to the solution of displacements and stresses of the earth continuum and the tunnel wall. In this first part the variational formulation of the continuous and discrete model is stated. The second part covers the proof of convergence of finite element method to the solution of continuous problem while in the third part some practical applications are illustrated.
