... depth is paramount in the design process to ensure long term stability of the DGRs. In hard rock under high stress, EDZ depth can be predicted using numerical simulation methods which employ an approach based on cohesion weakening and frictional strengthening (CWFS) with increasing inelastic deviatoric...
