Experimental Study on the Stability of Railroad Silt Subgrade with Increasing Train Speed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The comfort and safety of a moving train is largely determined by the dynamic response of the railway track and its foundation (i.e., subgrade). To study the dynamic stability of a silt subgrade subjected to train traffic ...
Building Rectification by Underexcavation and Practical Design Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: An 11-story high-rise building with a shear-wall structure utilized a raft foundation based on a deep alluvial deposit. After structure completion, the building tilted beyond acceptable limits. This paper presents the ...
Differential Settlement and Induced Structural Damage in a Cut-and-Cover Subway Tunnel in a Soft Deposit
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigated the differential settlement and induced structural damage in the west extension of Nanjing Metro Line 1. The minimum and maximum cumulative settlements measured over the course of four years of ...
Three-Dimensional Analytical Model for Coupled Track-Tunnel-Soil System in a Multilayered Half-Space
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: An analytical model is presented in this paper to predict the three-dimensional dynamic response of a circular tunnel in an elastic multilayered half-space. By applying the transfer matrix method and wave transformation, ...
