ABSTRACT Xie, R.; Zhang, C.; Feng, S.; Duan, Y.; Chen, J., and Deng, T., 2018. Numerical simulation of rock failure process in offshore area. In: Liu, Z.L. and Mi, C. (eds.), Advances in Sustainable Port and Ocean Engineering. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 83, pp. 251–255. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. The RFPA2D numerical simulation method is only suitable for studying the uniaxial compression failure process, so it has great limitations. To solve these problems, a new numerical simulation method for rock failure process in offshore area is proposed. The method is based on RFPA2D. Based on this idea, a RFPA3D numerical model is constructed to achieve numerical simulation of rock failure process. By simulating three basic experiments of uniaxial compression, uniaxial tension and shear rupture, the nonlinear stress - strain curves and the series images of damage and failure evolution in the same load stage are obtained. The experimental results show that RFPA3D can be more effec...
