Implementation of the Displacement Discontinuity Method in Geotechnical Case Studies

This paper uses the displacement discontinuity method, one of the boundary element methods, to solve two major engineering problems. The first one addresses the safe design of underground excavations in fractured rock masses. The implemented method was used to control the slip of discontinuities pas...
