Abstract

This paper presents time-dependent response of a cylindrical borehole in a poroelastic medium with an excavation disturbed zone. The general solutions are derived based on Biot’s theory of poroelasticity by employing Laplace and Fourier transforms. Both shear modulus and permeability coefficient are assumed to be changed from their original values in the disturbed zone. The general solutions are employed to formulate boundary value problems corresponding to a borehole subjected to axisymmetric loading applied at its surface, and contact problems of a rigid cylindrical plug in a borehole. Selected numerical results are presented to portray the influence of poroelastic effects and the excavation disturbed zone.
