Dans le cadre de l'approche cinématique en calcul à la rupture, on propose un nouveau mécanisme tridimensionnel pour l'étude de la stabilité du front de taille d'un tunnel en milieu cohérent et frottant. La famille de mécanismes envisagée est construite à partir de spirales logarithmiques et dépend de deux paramètres géométriques. L'optimisation de cette géométrie conduit à un mécanisme critique très semblable aux observations expérimentales et numériques. L'estimation par l'extérieur de la pression critique de confinement est meilleure que celle donnée par les approches existantes. Elle est très proche du résultat numérique 3D.

Within the framework of the kinematic approach of yield design theory, a new three-dimensional mechanism is proposed for the stability analysis of the tunnel face in cohesive-frictional material. The geometry of the mechanisms considered are based on logarithmic-spirals and depends on two parameters. The optimization leads to a critical mechanism which compares remarkably well with experimental and numerical observations. The kinematic bound of the critical face pressure is better than existing approaches, and is very close to value obtained by 3D numerical computations.
