Overburden soil beds situated above a fault are often deformed by propagation of bedrock thrusting from the fault during large earthquake. The deformed beds formed a triangular shear zone. This coseismic faulting often causes damage to underground tunnels located in the shear zone. The present research studies the deformation behavior of the overburden soil beds and the tunnel, the associated mechanism and the impact on the safety of tunnel linings induced by a large blind thrust slip. Based on sandbox experimental and numerical studies, it is found that results from numerical analysis are in agreement with the sandbox model tests with regard to growths of the shear zones within the soil beds, location of the tunnel in this shear zone and deformations of the tunnel. The potential major shear zone may be bent or bifurcated into two sub-shear zones owing to existence of a tunnel inside the shear zone. Furthermore, the occurrence of back-thrust faulting will threaten the safety of nearby structures. It was also identified that stiffness of the soil and the fault dip angles are among the major factors controlling the configuration of shear zones, the stresses within the soil, and the loads on tunnel linings. Based on the identified mechanisms, the strategies for hazard prevention are accordingly suggested and discussed. 相似文献

不同仰坡度数的山岭隧道洞口段动力响应振动台试验研究 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
首先介绍试验装置、模型相似比、试验模型箱等,然后对围岩与隧道结构的加速度响应、衬砌的位移和应变响应以及仰坡坡面的破坏情况进行分析。分析表明,由于洞口临空面的存在,隧道洞口处会出现加速度和位移的放大效应,不同的仰坡角度下均符合该特性,但随着仰坡坡度的增加,放大效应会逐渐减弱。在振动过程中衬砌横断面承受循环的拉压荷载作用,两侧的拱肩和拱脚位置出现较大的地震附加弯矩,受力特性与仰坡坡度无关,但地震附加弯矩会随着覆土厚度和结构惯性力的增加而增大;随着仰坡坡度的增加,结构与围岩在洞口处的相互作用会逐渐减弱,仰坡坡面的破坏形式分别为坡面的局部崩塌、衬砌顶部的大面积滑塌和坡顶的高位滑塌,均为浅层破坏,但坡面坍塌围岩会不同程度的掩埋洞口,对隧道的正常使用造成严重的影响,故应对洞口仰坡进行重点设防。分析结果对于合理认识山岭隧道洞口段地震响应特征具有积极作用,可供隧道实际工程设计和施工的抗震设防参考。 相似文献

Time dependent deformations during tunnelling and stability of tunnel faces in fine-grained soils under groundwater 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
The measures required for driving a tunnel below the groundwater table depend on the permeability of the soil. In coarse-grained,
highly permeable soils additional measures, for example compressed-air support combined with a reduction of the permeability
of the soil, e.g. induced by grouting, are necessary. Compared to this, it is possible to do without such measures in fine-grained,
cohesive soils because of the increased short-term stability of the tunnel face under undrained conditions. In this publication
the results of 3-dimensional finite-element calculations are presented to show the influence of the permeability of the soil
and also the rate of the tunnel driving on the deformations around the tunnel as well as on the ground surface. The calculated
deformations can furthermore be considered as an indicator for the time dependent stability of the tunnel face due to a higher
redistribution of stresses and by that an enlargement of the plasticized zone. Usually the stability of the tunnel face is
reduced by the presence of water because of the flow of water towards the tunnel. In low permeable soils undrained conditions
prevail immediately after an excavation step. In this case relatively high stability-ratios may occur. The stability of the
tunnel face will be reduced with increasing time until reaching the lower boundary of possible values, possibly leading to
failure. If calculations are done under the assumption of drained conditions, the real stability of the tunnel face during
construction may substantially exceed that of the calculated one. On the other hand, if calculations are done for undrained
conditions, the effective stability may lie on the unsafe side [10]. There is therefore a big demand to optimize the method of investigating deformations around the tunnel, so as to ensure
a safe tunnel excavation on the one hand and to guarantee a cost-effective process on the other. In this paper the tunnelling
process is modelled by a step-by-step excavation under atmospheric conditions. The soil is described by a material model which
distinguishes between primary and unload-reload stress paths and also accounts for stress-dependent stiffness parameters.
The failure criterion is described by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion that considers cohesion, friction angle and angle of dilatancy. 相似文献

Upper bound analysis of tunnel face stability in layered soils 总被引：3，自引：3，他引：0
The working face of tunnel constructions has to be kept stable during tunneling to prevent large soil deformations or fatal failure. In layered soils with lower cohesion, failures happen more often and more abrupt than in cohesive soils. Therefore, the maintenance of a proper support pressure at the tunnel working face is of high importance. In this paper, an upper bound analysis is introduced to investigate the minimum support pressure for the face stability in layered soils. A three-dimensional kinematically admissible mechanism for the upper bound analysis is improved to model potential failure within different soil layers. An analytical solution for the support pressure assessment is achieved. The influence of the crossing and cover soil on the face stability is analyzed, respectively. This solution provides an analytical estimation of the minimum support pressure for the face stability. It may be used as a reference for projects under similar conditions. 相似文献

Three-Dimensional Back-Analysis of an Instrumented Shallow Tunnel Excavated by a Conventional Method
Mohamed Nabil Houhou Fabrice Emeriault Émilie Vanoudheusden 《Geotechnical and Geological Engineering》2016,34(4):1101-1117
The excavation of a shallow tunnel induces deformations of the soil volume in the vicinity and above the tunnel and consequently on the nearby buildings. The range of these deformations depends among other on the geological conditions, the geometry of the tunnel, and the excavation method. In this context, this research focuses on the 3D numerical modeling of a shallow tunnel instrumented during its construction, located on the Toulouse (France) subway line B for which the excavation has been carried out in a conventional manner in an over consolidated molassic geological context. The objective of this analysis is to estimate the tunnel behavior in terms of vertical and horizontal movements of the surrounding soil and the deformations of the existing buildings. The explicit finite differences numerical code FLAC3D is used to model the various implementation phases of the work where the fluid–soil interaction is taken into account through an undrained coupled analysis. The results of this 3D model are compared to those of the in situ measurements in order to validate the geotechnical characteristics of the molasses. The latter are a useful basis for the back-analysis of the different monitoring sections implemented in areas where the tunnel excavation is made by TBM with pressurized front. 相似文献

Monitoring of the progressive convergence of a tunnel shows that deformations occurring in the soil surrounding a tunnel exhibit a strong evolution with time. This time‐dependent behaviour can be linked to three essential factors: the distance from the point of interest to the working face over time, the distance of unsupported tunnel to the working face and the viscous properties of the soil. The objective of this paper is to propose a constitutive model of the time‐dependent behaviour of soil which has been developed within the framework of elastoplasticity–viscoplasticity and critical state soil mechanics. The consideration of viscoplastic characteristic sets the current model apart from the CJS (Cambou, Jafari and Sidoroff) model as the basic elastoplastic model, and introduces an additional viscous mechanism. The evolution of the viscous yield surface is governed by a particular hardening called ‘viscous hardening’ with a bounding surface. The proposed constitutive model has been applied in the analysis of tunnelling. Two kinds of numerical calculations have been used in the analysis, axisymmetric analysis and plane strain analysis. Monitoring of the progressive convergence of a tunnel conducted in the railway tunnel of Tartaiguille (France), has been used to describe the calculation procedure proposed and the capability of the model. The finite difference software, fast Lagrangian analysis of continua (FLAC), has been used for the numerical simulation of the problems. The comparison of results shows that the observed deformations could have been reasonably predicted by using the constitutive model and calculation strategy proposed.

通过对西安地铁隧道穿越地裂缝带的大型物理模型试验成果的分析,提出在地裂缝活动时,穿越地裂缝带的地铁隧道有以下两个方面的变化特征：一是作用于隧道的荷载发生改变;二是在隧道底部产生脱空现象。这种脱空现象无论在整体式隧道还是盾构隧道中都会出现。造成隧道在界面上与土体脱空的原因是隧道和周围地层的变形不协调。脱空区域的大小对地铁隧道的变形与内力计算会产生明显影响。在对隧道变形特征分析的基础上,总结得出了西安地铁穿越地裂缝带隧道变形的4种计算模型：对于整体式长隧道,可以采用一端固定而另一端简支,或一端固定而另一端定向支承的计算模型;对于整体式短隧道,可以采用外伸梁模型;对于盾构隧道,可以采用一端固定而另一端定向支承的计算模型。最后,对脱空条件下隧道数值分析的建模问题进行了讨论。算例分析表明：在数值计算中,对于隧道与土体接触面的界面处理非常关键,否则将造成计算结果的重大误差。 相似文献

Twin tunnels are frequently used to address the increasing transportation demands in large cities. To ensure the safety of twin tunnels in close proximity, it is often necessary to take protective measures that have not been well studied. Field monitoring was conducted for a project of twin earth pressure balance shield (EPBS) tunnels in typical soft ground. The preceding tunnel was reinforced by various measures, including trailer bracing, compensation grouting, artificial freezing and scaffold bracing. The entire deformation of the reinforced tunnel was recorded during the succeeding tunnelling process. A three dimensional finite-element method (FEM) model was established to simulate the entire process of twin EPBS tunnelling, particularly the reinforcement measures. The computed deformations of the reinforced tunnel were consistent with the measured data. Furthermore, the stress history and pore pressure of the surrounding soil were analysed to investigate the deformation mechanism of the tunnel. Both the measured and computed results indicate that although the face pressure of the succeeding tunnel was smaller than the earth pressure at rest, the preceding tunnel could still experience an inward horizontal convergence and a deflection away from the succeeding tunnel. These distortion modes were caused by the squeezing effect of the horizontal soil arch in front of the succeeding tunnel face. Finally, convergence and deflection indices were proposed to quantify and assess the effectiveness of the reinforcement measures. The trailer bracing, as an “in-tunnel” reinforcement technique, was found to be the most effective method for controlling tunnel convergence. However, artificial freezing as an “out-tunnel” reinforcement technique led to the largest reductions in tunnel deflection. A combination of both “in-tunnel” and “out-tunnel” reinforcements was recommended. 相似文献

根据杭州地区地下浅层气的分布规律和赋存特点,结合杭州地铁工程,设计了一套模型试验系统。借助物理模型试验,研究了浅层含气土层中气体释放和再回聚对地铁隧道受力稳定性的影响。试验结果表明,在含浅层气地层中穿过的地铁隧道,土中气体的释放和再回聚会使隧道产生附加变形与附加内力;气体变化过程对隧道管片截面相对变形和内力的影响较弱,而对隧道整体变形则具有显著影响;气体释放后的再回聚过程对隧道结构变形和内力的影响明显小于前期的气体释放过程。处于含浅层气地层区域的地铁隧道,应将隧道的整体稳定性作为控制重点,并且施工前,宜将地层中气体进行超前有控排放,以减弱后期给地铁工程带来的不利影响。 相似文献

One of the most important problems during tunneling in soft rock is deformation and fracturing of the rock during tunneling. The problem was successfully explored by using a transparent rock surrogate to simulate the behavior of soft rock, which permitted visualizing conditions within the rock. Synthetic soft rock was made using consolidated fused quartz saturated with a blend of two mineral oils that have the same refractive index as the quartz. The tunnel was simulated using a smooth aluminum tube and two tunneling methods representing machining and blasting were considered. Two observation planes made of seeding particles were pre-placed within the model and used to track soil movements and crack propagation. Images of both planes were captured simultaneously using two orthogonal cameras. Rock deformations were concentrated in the vicinity of the tunnel face, and deformation rates behind the tunnel face were significantly greater than those ahead of the face. However, deformation rates and patterns varied considerably depending on the excavation method/rate. Fracturing mechanisms exhibited similar differences, for machining deformations occurred higher above the crown and propagated toward the tunnel face. Conversely for blasting deformations sprang from the crown upwards. These observations can assist with numerical simulations and in planning tunnel support systems.

In this paper, a numerical simulation method for evaluating tunnelling-induced ground movement is presented. The method involves discrete element simulation of TBM slurry shield advancement and considers explicitly soil excavation from the face, effects of varying face support pressure, and the influence of tunnel cover depth. For the cases studied, it is found that for tunnel cover depths (C/D) between 0.7 and 2.1, ground deformations inducing by the tunnelling can be controlled within a certain extent and tunnel face stability can ensured, provided the support pressure ratio (N) lies between 0.8 and 1.5. The proposed method is reasonably benefited to modeling the face stability in shield-driven tunnels in soft soils. 相似文献

盾构近距离穿越大型立交桥超长桩基础会对桩基础及上部桥梁结构产生不利影响。通过对盾构近距离侧穿超长桩基础过程进行数值模拟,研究了不同深度处盾构掘进对超长桩承载性状、变形和内力的影响。研究表明：盾构近距侧穿超长桩会导致桩身出现较大变形及内力,且隧道轴线与超长桩处于不同相对位置时会对桩的特性产生不同影响。其他条件不变时,盾构从桩身上部的近距离穿越,将引起桩身最大的横向水平位移;盾构从桩身中部近距离穿越则将引起桩身产生沿盾构掘进方向的最大的水平位移;盾构从桩端附近穿越时将引起桩身产生最大的竖向位移;盾构从桩身中下部穿越时将引起桩身产生最大的附加轴力。桩身侧阻在隧道轴线附近呈“S”型,同时桩身轴力最大值也出现在隧道轴线附近。盾构导致桩身产生纵向和横向变形延伸至桥面高度的变形量相当可观。当盾构穿越高架桥梁基础时应该严格控制桩顶水平位移。 相似文献

Summary This paper is a contribution to the study of tunnelling in difficult conditions, with attention paid to large time-dependent
deformations, which may develop either during construction, causing instabilities of the tunnel heading and of the face, or
during the service life of the tunnel. Under these circumstances the construction costs may rise due to the delays in excavation
time, the stabilisation and heavy support measures that need be adopted. Following a review of characterisation and modelling
of time-dependent behaviour in rock, the mechanical behaviour of Clay Shales (CS), a structurally complex formation of the
Apennines (Italy), is described. Then, the key factors involved in the selection of the constitutive model for CS are identified.
Two constitutive models are selected and discussed and their specific material parameters determined. A case study of a large
size tunnel is presented where numerical modelling by the finite difference method is carried out. The results of modelling
are compared with the monitoring data in terms of radial convergence of the tunnel and extrusion of the tunnel face. 相似文献

In all kinds of tunnel excavations, especially those excavated in cities, it is important to control surface settlements and prevent damage to the surface and subsurface structures. For this purpose, in weak rocks and soils, the umbrella arch method (UAM) has been used in addition to the new Austrian tunneling method (NATM). NATM and UAM are the best-known classical methods used in tunnel excavation. In classical tunneling, NATM is usually preferred in normal rocks. However, in some cases, NATM may be insufficient. UAM is a very effective alternative especially in soils and weak rocks. In soil and weak rocks, UAM is especially necessary to prevent excessive deformations. Selection of UAM or NATM is based on the following factors: cost comparison of NATM and UAM, allowable deformations, quality of rock or soil, application time of NATM and UAM, availability of skilled workers, and qualification level of the workers. Therefore, selecting the excavation method in these kinds of grounds is vital in terms of achieving the project goals in time, managing the project costs effectively, and controlling the probable deformations on nearby structures. A critical issue in successful tunneling application is the ability to evaluate and predict the deformations, costs, and project time. In this paper, application times, costs, and deformation effects are compared between NATM and UAM in sensitive regions at the Uskudar-Umraniye-Cekmekoy metro project (UUCMP). Also, efficiency of the deformation control of UAM is demonstrated by using the 2D numerical analysis method. UUCMP is part of the Istanbul metro network. The tunnels have a cross section of 75.60 m2 for NATM and 83.42 m2 for UAM. Geology in this section is composed of weak sandstone. Diabase and andesite dykes are also rarely observed. This study shows that the construction cost of UAM are 1.7 times more expensive than NATM. Although application time of UAM is 2.5 times longer than NATM, it is 2.5 times more efficient in controlling the deformations. This efficiency in controlling the deformations is confirmed via two-dimensional numerical analyses. 相似文献

The roadway tunnel is considered a good solution for the success of modern roadway networks. It can help to overcome possible traffic congestion and considerably reduce journey time. The continuous growth of traffic volumes leads to increase congestion and decrease safety. This leads to the need for extra tunnel space. The extra tunnel space can be achieved either by the widening of the existing tunnel or by adding a new one. The choice of the suitable method is dependent on many factors like tunnels alignment, site conditions, construction method, tunnel operation, risk assessment…etc. The current research investigates the second alternative through a specific case study as an example. The method comprises adding two new tunnels to an existing twin roadway tunnels. The investigated problem considers the new tunnels to be added vertically or horizontally. The influence of the new tunnel construction on the existing tunnels is investigated considering both the variation of relative position and spacing distance in a parametric study context. Several numerical models are employed to check the construction sequence and the tunnelling safety. These models are used to evaluate the induced stresses in surrounding ground for two different soil types, straining actions in tunnels’ liner and deformations of both ground and liner. The result demonstration shows how to find out the minimum practical and safe spacing distance between the driven new tunnels and the existing ones without the need for the relatively expensive soil strengthening techniques. 相似文献

Numerical modeling of the effects of explosions relies on suitable material models appropriate for large deformation problems. Available results of a wide range of static and dynamic tests on Nevada #120 sand, completed as part of an earlier project (VELACS), were utilized to calibrate a numerical model for sand, suitable for modeling surface explosions. A fully-coupled Euler–Lagrange Interaction was utilized to correctly model pressures created by the explosion simultaneously with the large deformations in the soil. The model was used to study two cases – the first with a 2-D axisymmetric case of crater formation; and the second with a 3-D case of surface explosion above an underground tunnel. The results of numerical analyses were found to closely match those from other analyses, field tests, and centrifuge model tests. 相似文献

In this work, the effects of coupled hydromechanical (consolidation) processes associated with shield tunneling excavation in soft clays are investigated with particular attention to the prediction of ground movements at the ground surface. A series of 2d FE analyses have been carried out in parametric form in order to investigate the effects of tunnel excavation velocity relative to the soil consolidation rate and the hydraulic boundary conditions at the tunnel boundary. The shield advancement process has been simulated with a simplified procedure incorporating both volume loss and ovalization of the tunnel section. In order to investigate the relative importance of soil consolidation during the excavation process, different characteristic times for the tunnel face advancement and for the consolidation process around the tunnel have been considered, for the two limiting conditions of fully permeable liner and impervious liner. The potential damage induced by the tunnel excavation on existing structures, based on computed ground surface distortions and horizontal deformations, has been found to vary significantly with time during the consolidation process. The results of the simulations allowed to obtain useful information on the minimum tunnel face advancement speed for which the assumption of fully undrained conditions for the soil during the excavations is acceptable, as well as on the speed range for which solving the fully coupled hydromechanical problem is necessary. 相似文献

Summary. The magnitude and distribution of ground deformations around a tunnel are often monitored during construction and provide
key information about ground-support interaction and ground behavior. Thus it is important to determine the effects of different
parameters on ground deformations to accurately and effectively evaluate what contributes to ground and support behavior observed
during excavation. This paper investigates one such relation: the effects of seepage on radial deformations. A number of numerical
analyses have been conducted with the following assumptions: deep circular unsupported tunnel, elastic ground, isotropic far
field stresses, dry ground or saturated ground with steady-state water seepage. The analyses cover a wide range of tunnel
sizes, effective stresses, and pore pressures. Results from the numerical simulations confirm previous analytical solutions
for normalized radial deformations behind the face (i.e. on the tunnel side of the face) of a tunnel excavated in dry ground,
and have been used to propose a new analytical formulation for normalized radial displacements ahead and behind the tunnel
face for both dry and saturated ground with water flow. Water seepage substantially increases the magnitude and distribution
of the normalized radial deformations ahead of the face and at the tunnel face, but does not change much the displacement
distribution behind the tunnel face. 相似文献

Landslides are recurring phenomena causing damages to private property, public facilities, and human lives. The need for an affordable instrumentation that can be used to provide an early warning of slope instability to enable the evacuation of vulnerable people, and timely repair and maintenance of critical infrastructure is self-evident. A new emerging technique that correlates soil moisture changes and deformations in slope surface by means of elastic wave propagation in soil was developed. This approach quantifies elastic wave propagation as wave velocity. To verify its applicability, a series of fixed and varied slope model tests, as well as a large scale model test, were conducted. Analysis of the results has established that the elastic wave velocity continuously decreases in response of moisture content and deformation, and there was a distinct surge in the decrease rate of wave velocity with failure initiation, soil deformation was thus envisaged to have more significant effect on elastic wave velocity than water content. It is proposed that a warning be issued at switch of wave velocity decrease rate. Based on these observations, expected operation of the elastic wave velocity monitoring system for landslide prediction in the field application is presented. Consequently, we conclude that the elastic wave velocity monitoring technique has the potential to contribute to landslide prediction. 相似文献
