Abstract: The different joint arrangements resulting from different segmental assemblies between adjacent rings may inevitably give rise to the interaction for staggered jointed lining, which is crucial for the structural analysis ...

Abstract: The low stiffness of steel U-shaped girders during incremental launching construction has led to the development of an innovative incremental launching construction method that addresses the special requirements of long, ...

Abstract: The reinforcement of shield tunnels with secondary linings is a widely used method to enhance the overall rigidity of tunnels; therefore, ensuring tunnel safety during construction and operational periods. According to a ...
