Abstract: Grouting is frequently used to prevent water-inrush disasters in tunnels and underground engineering. However, complex groundwater environment can significantly influence the grouting effect, especially the antiwashout ...

Abstract: The water diversion tunnel of the Suki-Kinari hydropower station in Pakistan passes through deep valleys with karst caves. Water and mud inrush disasters occurred during tunnel construction because of the adequate water ...

Abstract: The intelligent management of infrastructure is crucial to maintain structural stability. Although much more attention has been paid to the development of intelligent systems, the cooperation and efficiency of different ...

Abstract: Wave propagation in a layered rock mass is a common problem in geotechnical engineering. The bedding planes in a layered rock mass are generally in situ stressed and adhesively bonded. This study extended the time-domain ...

Abstract: Real-time monitoring of underwater construction is important for structural stability. To prevent tunnel disasters, an integrated analysis framework for tunnel stability evaluation was proposed using real-time monitoring ...

Abstract: For tunneling in squeezing rock, large deformation induced by tunnel excavation and creep of squeezing rock has been a great challenge during construction. This large deformation would keep growing for a long time, ...

Abstract: Foamed concrete has attracted increasing attention in civil engineering due to its unique properties. Permeability is one of the significant material properties that governs its long-term durability. This work presents a ...

Abstract: The response of concrete under uniaxial loading is dependent on its density and the height-to-diameter (H∶D) ratio of the specimen, and this phenomenon has received wide attention in research on normal concrete. However, ...
