Abstract: Existing tunnels are inevitably disturbed by adjacent engineering projects, with ground surface surcharge accounting for the largest proportion. Meanwhile, the influence of spatial variability of soil parameters on tunnel ...

Abstract: Cyclic triaxial tests are commonly used to evaluate the mechanical characteristics of subgrade soil under cyclic loads. Most cyclic triaxial tests were conducted on normally consolidated clays, however, some of the subgrade ...

Abstract: The roughness of a joint has a significant influence on the physical and mechanical properties of rock mass, and it is a hot and challenging research topic to determine the joint roughness quickly and accurately. In this ...

Abstract: For equivalent linear and nonlinear site response analysis, both shear modulus and damping ratio are critical input factors. The elastic modulus and damping ratio of saturated soft clay are usually determined using cyclic ...
