Notes:
In this paper, three-dimensional(3D) Numerical Manifold Method (NNM) based onhexahedron element cover with full first-order cover function is proposed and the shape function ofC8 isoparametric element in FEM is used as the cover weight function. All sub-matrices inequilibrium equations, including stiffness matrix, initial stress matrix, point force matrix, surfaceforce matrix, body force matrix, inertia force matrix, contact matrix and friction matrix, are derived.Different with 2D contact, the direction of shear stiffness and friction force can not be easilydefined in 3D contact. A new iterative method based on vector theory to detect the contactdirection is developed. The application of 3D NMM in underground excavation is also presentedand show good agreement with real engineering
