Paper Number: ISRM-ARMS10-2018-241
.... In this paper, digital image processing is applied to detect edges in the images of two selected tunnel faces, clusters the signals and a structure map is generated which can be used for determining joint orientations, spacings and trace lengths. The applied method resulted in both cases in a very good...

... these assumptions are not made. The FD grid showing a gradual increase in size toward far-field boundaries of the model is shown in Fig. 5a. The model boundaries are impermeable except at the tunnel wall and tunnel face which are made permeable. Tunnel advance starts from x/D = 10 to the final tunnel face at x/D...
