A forked tunnel, as a special complicated underground structure, is composed of big-arch tunnel, multi-arch tunnel, neighborhood tunnels and separate tunnels according to the different distances between two separate tunnels. Due to the complicated process of design and construction, surrounding jointed rock mass stability of the big-arch tunnel which belongs to the forked tunnel during excavation is a hot issue that needs special attentions. In this paper, an elasto-plastic damage constitutive model for jointed rock mass is proposed based on the coupling method considering elasto-plastic and damage theories, and the irreversible thermodynamics theory. Based on this elasto-plastic damage constitutive model, a three dimensional elasto-plastic damage finite element code (D-FEM) is implemented using Visual Fortran language, which can numerically simulate the whole excavation process of underground project and perform the structural stability of the surrounding rock mass. Comparing with a popular commercial computer code, three dimensional fast Lagrangian analysis of continua (FLAC3D), this D-FEM has advantages in terms of rapid computing process, element grouping function and providing more material models. After that, FLAC3D and D-FEM are simultaneously used to perform the structural stability analysis of the surrounding rock mass in the forked tunnel considering three different computing schemes. The final numerical results behave almost consistent using both FLAC3D and D-FEM. But from the point of numerically obtained damage softening areas, the numerical results obtained by D-FEM more closely approach the practical behaviors of in-situ surrounding rock mass.

70~80년대에 다수의 고속도로 건설과 함께 축적된 고속도로 터널에 대한 설계 및 시공기술에 비하여 철도터널의 설계는 최근들어 활발하게 이루어지고 있는 상황이다. 따라서 고속도로 터널과 철도 터널의 비교시에는 다소간의 시간적인 차이가 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 논문에서는 서로 비슷한 굴착단면적을 갖고 있으나 단면형상에서 차이를 나타내는 고속도로 2차로 자연환기터널과 선로중심간격 4.3m의 복선철도 터널에 대해 동일한 조건하에서 지보재를 설치하지 않은 경우와 지보재를 설치한 경우에 대해 수치해석을 수행하여 단면형상 차이에 따른 터널 주변암반에 발생하는 주응력크기 및 축차응력 비교를 통한 터널의 안정성을 비교 분석하였다.
