Effects of mesh size and boundary conditions on creep analysis of rock salt

  • 1. Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources, Hannover

Description

Mesh size, various boundary conditions, and considered time period affect prediction of creep closure around an open borehole in salt. Also, the use of finite elements near the boundary with an equivalent stiffness can significantly improve the accuracy of a solution at reduced computational cost
