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

A finite element study is presented of the short-term effects that develop when a tunnel is driven in a ground showing viscous behaviour associated with the deviatoric deformations. Axisymmetric conditions around the tunnel centreline are assumed and the process of excavation is simulated by means of a step-by-step time incremental technique. The Kelvin's model is used to approximate the medium creep behaviour and a simple procedure is presented that allows the determination of the creep model constants from the laboratory test data. Various rates of advancing, the presence of an unsupported zone close to the tunnel face and the temporary interruption of the excavation process are considered. For the viscous model and the analytical technique used, simple, approximate relationships are presented for the displacements around the tunnel and the overexcavation volume as functions of the rate of excavation advancing. 相似文献

An elastoplastic-viscoplastic constitutive model for soils is presented in this study, based on an original approach concerning viscous modelling. In this approach, the viscous behaviour is defined by internal viscous variables and a viscous yield surface. The model has been developed from a basic elastoplastic model (CJS model) by considering an additional viscous mechanism. The evolution of the viscous yield surface is governed by a particular hardening called ‘viscous hardening’. This model is able to explain the time-dependent behaviour of soils such as creep (primary, secondary and un-drained creep rupture), stress relaxation and strain rate effects in static and cyclic loadings. The existing problems in the classical elasto-viscoplastic models related to the plasticity failure, the rapid loading and the cyclic loading are solved in the proposed model. The physical meanings and the identification strategy of model parameters are clearly given. The validation on certain triaxial test results and the simulation of cyclic triaxial test indicate the capacity of this model in prediction of time-dependent behaviour of clayey soils. 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

Time-dependent response of deep tunnels is studied considering the progressive degradation of the mechanical properties of the rock mass. The constitutive model is based on a rock-aging law for the uniaxial strength of the rock and for the Young’s modulus. A semi-analytical solution is developed for the stresses and displacements around a deep circular tunnel taking into account the face advance. The evolution of the plastic and damage zones over time is determined. Numerical examples are presented for the case of Saint-Martin-La-Porte access adit in France of the Lyon–Turin Base Tunnel. The computed results which are compared with the field data in terms of the convergence of tunnel wall and of the displacements inside the rock mass monitored by multi-point extensometers show the efficiency of the approach to simulate the time-dependent deformation of a tunnel excavated in squeezing ground. Simple relationships are proposed to evaluate the parameters of the constitutive model directly from those of the empirical convergence law presented in previous work. 相似文献

It has been widely accepted that reinforcement made of polyethylene and polypropylene is susceptible to creep and soil’s hydraulic conductivity varies with its void ratio. However, unfortunately there is no available sensitivity analysis on time-dependent embankment behaviour taking either reinforcement viscosity or time varying hydraulic conductivity of subsoil into consideration. The influence of geosynthetic reinforcement viscosity and decreasing hydraulic conductivity with consolidation on the time-dependent performance of embankments with floating columns is investigated using a fully 3D coupled model. For an embankment at the working height corresponding to a post-consolidation polypropylene geotextile strain of about 5%, it is shown that the assumption of constant hydraulic conductivity and the failure to consider the viscous behaviour of geosynthetic reinforcement can underestimate time-dependent embankment deformations (including differential crest settlement and horizontal toe movement). The effects of factors including the foundation soil, reinforcement stiffness, column stiffness, column spacing, column type (floating and fully penetrating), and construction rate, on the time-dependent behaviour of column supported embankments are explored. 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

Soil models based on kinematic hardening together with elements of bounding surface plasticity, provide a means of introducing some memory of recent history and stiffness variation in the predicted response of soils. Such models provide an improvement on simple elasto‐plastic models in describing soil behaviour under non‐monotonic loading. Routine use of such models requires robust numerical integration schemes. Explicit integration of highly non‐linear models requires extremely small steps in order to guarantee convergence. Here, a fully implicit scheme is presented for a simple kinematic hardening extension of the Cam clay soil model. The algorithm is based on the operator split methodology and the implicit Euler backward integration scheme is proposed to integrate the rate form of the constitutive relations. This algorithm maintains a quadratic rate of asymptotic convergence when used with a Newton–Raphson iterative procedure. Various strain‐driven axisymmetric triaxial paths are simulated in order to demonstrate the efficiency and good performance of the proposed algorithm. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

In recent years, a number of constitutive models have been proposed to describe mathematically the mechanical response of natural clays. Some of these models are characterized by complex formulations, often leading to non‐trivial problems in their numerical integration in finite elements codes. The paper describes a fully implicit stress‐point algorithm for the numerical integration of a single‐surface mixed isotropic–kinematic hardening plasticity model for structured clays. The formulation of the model stems from a compromise between its capability of reproducing the larger number of features characterizing the behaviour of structured clays and the possibility of developing a robust integration algorithm for its implementation in a finite elements code. The model is characterized by an ellipsoid‐shaped yield function, inside which a stress‐dependent reversible stiffness is accounted for by a non‐linear hyperelastic formulation. The isotropic part of the hardening law extends the standard Cam‐Clay one to include plastic strain‐driven softening due to bond degradation, while the kinematic hardening part controls the evolution of the position of the yield surface in the stress space. The proposed algorithm allows the consistent linearization of the constitutive equations guaranteeing the quadratic rate of asymptotic convergence in the global‐level Newton–Raphson iterative procedure. The accuracy and the convergence properties of the proposed algorithm are evaluated with reference to the numerical simulations of single element tests and the analysis of a typical geotechnical boundary value problem.

Successful numerical simulation of geosynthetic-reinforced earth structures depends on selecting proper constitutive models for soils, geosynthetics and soil–geosynthetic interfaces. Many constitutive models are available for modelling soils and geosynthetics. However, constitutive models for soil–geosynthetic interfaces which can capture most of the important characteristics of interface response are not readily available. In this paper, an elasto-plastic constitutive model based on the disturbed state concept (DSC) for geosynthetic–soil interfaces has been presented. The proposed model is capable of capturing most of the important characteristics of interface response, such as dilation, hardening and softening. The behaviour of interfaces under the direct shear test has been predicted by the model. The present model has been implemented in the finite element procedure in association with the thin-layer element. Five pull-out tests with two different geogrids have been simulated numerically using FEM. For the calibration of the constitutive models used in FEM, the standard laboratory tests used are: (1) triaxial tests for the sand, (2) direct shear tests for the interfaces and (3) axial tension tests for the geogrids. The results of the finite element simulations of pull-out tests agree well with the test data. The proposed model can be used for the stress-deformation study of geosynthetic-reinforced embankments through numerical simulation. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Practical Estimate of Deformations and Stress Relief Factors for Deep Tunnels Supported by Shotcrete 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1
Summary. Even though ground-support interaction in the vicinity of the tunnel face is a typical 3D problem, tunnel support design is
usually based on simplified plane strain models, which are strongly dependent on the assumed degree of ground stress relief
at the time of lining installation. The paper focuses on tunnels supported by shotcrete close to the face, where the interaction
between the loading process and progressive hardening of the green shotcrete makes the problem time-dependent. A constitutive
law characterized by the time-dependent stiffness and strength of the shotcrete is employed herein. The results of an extensive
parametric study based on 3D axisymmetric models are presented in the form of non-dimensional design charts, which can provide
guidance to a preliminary evaluation of convergences and support loadings.
Moreover a strategy is proposed to enhance the capability of simplified design methods (2D models, Convergence-Confinement
Method). This consists in a “guided estimate” of stress relief factors, which again is based on the results of 3D time-dependent
analyses. Finally, by way of example, the proposed method is applied to two well-documented case-histories. 相似文献

This paper numerically investigates the slurry shield tunneling in fully saturated soils with different hydraulic conductivities in short- and long-term scales. A fully coupled hydromechanical three-dimensional model that accounts for the main aspects of tunnel construction and the hydromechanical interactions due to tunneling process is developed. An elasto-plastic constitutive model obeying a double hardening rule, namely hardening soil model, is employed in the numerical simulations. The research mainly focuses on assessing the influence of soil hydraulic conductivity and the method to simulate backfill grouting in the tail void on the evolution of ground subsidence, excess pore water pressure and lining forces. Two different consolidation schemes have been taken into account to computationally address the tunnel construction in soil with low and high hydraulic conductivities. In addition, different methods are employed to simulate the tail void grouting as a hydromechanical boundary condition and to study its effects on the model responses. Finally, the influences of infiltration of the fluidized particles of grouting suspension into the surrounding soil and its corresponding time–space hydraulic conductivity evolution on the displacements and lining forces are studied. 相似文献

This paper presents a constitutive model for time‐dependent behaviour of granular material. The model consists of 2 parts representing the inviscid and viscous behaviour of granular materials. The inviscid part is a rate‐independent hypoplastic constitutive model. The viscous part is represented by a rheological model, which contains a high‐order term denoting the strain acceleration. The proposed model is validated by simulating some element tests on granular soils. Our model is able to model not only the non‐isotach behaviour but also the 3 creep stages, namely, primary, secondary, and tertiary creep, in a unified way. 相似文献

New basis for the constitutive modelling of aggregated soils 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
Natural and compacted soils are usually characterized by aggregation of particles. The mechanical behaviour of these materials
depends on soil structure. The oedometric compression tests performed on aggregated samples presented here showed that these
materials exhibit a yield limit depending not only on stress history and stress state but also on soil structure. Evidence
is provided using the neutron tomography technique. These results revealed that soil structure modification occurs together
with plastic deformations. The experimental results are used to propose a new state parameter to quantify the soil structure.
Based on pore-scale experimental observations, an evolution law for this parameter is proposed as a function of associated
plastic strains. Considering both soil fabric and inter-particle bonding effects, a new yield limit depending on stress state,
stress history and soil structure is introduced for the aggregated soils. Accordingly, a new constitutive framework consistent
with strain hardening plasticity is proposed to consider soil structure effects in the modelling of aggregated soils. 相似文献

Summary The paper deals with uniaxial relaxation tests on rock salt which are the basis for a constitutive equation. Since so far no regard was paid to relaxation behaviour, corresponding test results are not available and hence a special device for performing of uniaxial relaxation tests had to be constructed. Some interesting test results are discussed in the paper. These results are useful for the verification of constitutive equations. A critical analysis of conventional constitutive laws and their fundamentals shows that these material laws have considerable imperfections and are rested on substantial restrictions. Particularly, they are not able to describe relaxation behaviour sufficiently. Consequently, a constitutive law is proposed consisting of a strain hardening approach with separate creep and relaxation functions. By post-calculation of different laboratory tests it could be shown that in comparison to conventional steady-state creep equations this material law describes the viscous behaviour of rock salt more realistically. 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

Performance observation is a necessary part of the design and construction process in geotechnical engineering. For deep urban excavations, empirical and numerical methods are used to predict potential deformations and their impacts on surrounding structures. Two inverse analysis approaches are described and compared for an excavation project in downtown Chicago. The first approach is a parameter optimization approach based on genetic algorithm (GA). GA is a stochastic global search technique for optimizing an objective function with linear or non-linear constraints. The second approach, self-learning simulations (SelfSim), is an inverse analysis technique that combines finite element method, continuously evolving material models, and field measurements. The optimization based on genetic algorithm approach identifies material properties of an existing soil model, and SelfSim approach extracts the underlying soil behavior unconstrained by a specific assumption on soil constitutive behavior. The two inverse analysis approaches capture well lateral wall deflections and maximum surface settlements. The GA optimization approach tends to overpredict surface settlements at some distance from the excavation as it is constrained by a specific form of the material constitutive model (i.e. hardening soil model); while the surface settlements computed using SelfSim approach match the observed ones due to its ability to learn small strain non-linearity of soil implied in the measured settlements. 相似文献

热黏弹塑性本构模型是描述土在温度（热）和时间（黏）耦合作用下的应力-应变关系的本构模型。在一些新型岩土工程诸如高放核废料地质处置、地热资源开发与贮存的建设中,需要同时考虑温度和时间对土的影响,所以建立一个热黏弹塑性本构模型具有理论和实际意义。将温度变化对黏土体积和强度参数的影响引入笔者之前提出的超固结土等向应力-应变-时间关系,建立了一个等向应力条件下的应力-应变-时间-温度关系。随后,基于该关系推导了屈服面硬化定律,并将其与超固结土统一硬化模型的屈服方程和流动法则结合,建立了超固结土的热黏弹塑性本构模型。最后,使用新模型预测室内试验,证明新模型能够反映时间和温度对土体积、一维压缩曲线和前期固结压力的耦合影响。 相似文献
