Upper-Bound Solution for Stability Number of Elliptical Tunnel in Cohesionless Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Performance of a Deep Excavation Irregular Supporting Structure Subjected to Asymmetric Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because of the extreme terrain limitations and heavy traffic in congested urban areas, the supporting structures for deep excavations often undergo an asymmetric loading condition at two sides. This article reports the ...
Stability and Failure Mechanism of the Tunnel Face in Nonhomogeneous Clay with Longitudinal Slopes: A Kinematic Limit Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Longitudinal inclined tunnels are commonly encountered in practical projects, yet limited studies are available on determining the stability of the tunnel face with the presence of longitudinal slopes, especially in ...
A Unified Analytical Model for Undrained Compressibility Behavior of Foam-Conditioned Coarse-Grained Soils Based on Effective Stress Analysis
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During the tunneling process of earth pressure balance (EPB) shield machines, the undrained compressibility of foam-conditioned soils in the excavation chamber is essential for reducing the fluctuation of chamber pressure ...
