Swelling Ground Analysis

Swelling Ground Analysis is a geomechanical assessment method that identifies and quantifies the volumetric expansion of clay-rich rock masses in tunnel environments due to hydration, distinguishing it from other ground behavior analyses by its specific focus on time-dependent swelling pressures and associated damage mechanisms.
