Undrained vane shear strength of sand-foam mixtures subjected to different shear rates

Jiazheng Zhong et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of shear rates on the shear strength of sand-foam mixtures. The results showed that under high pressure and low foam injection ratio, increasing shear rates decreased the peak strength of sand-foam mixtures, while the residual strength was not significantly affected by shear rates. Moreover, the peak and residual strengths were approximately linear with vertical effective stress.

On the critical particle size of soil with clogging potential in shield tunneling

Shuying Wang et al.

Summary: This study conducted laboratory tests to determine the critical particle size for soil clogging in shield tunneling, which was found to be 0.15 mm. The interfacial adhesion force between soil and steel was used as an indicator of soil clogging risk.

Deep learning-based automatic detection of muck types for earth pressure balance shield tunneling in soft ground

Dongming Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper presents a method for automatic detection of muck types using deep learning algorithms based on the on-site surveillance camera of an earth pressure balance shield. By optimizing the muck dataset for Shanghai, a muck detection model is established, which outperforms other state-of-the-art detection models in accuracy and speed.

Effect of bentonite slurry on the function of foam for changing the permeability characteristics of sand under high hydraulic gradients

Fanlin Ling et al.

Summary: During earth pressure balance shield tunnelling in sandy ground, foam and other conditioning agents are injected to reduce permeability of muck. The study found that a low bentonite slurry injection ratio enhanced the workability of foam-conditioned sand and had a significant effect on permeability.

Undrained compressibility characteristics and pore pressure calculation model of foam-conditioned sand

Haibo Wang et al.

Summary: Foam soil conditioning is widely used in mechanised tunnelling to transform natural soil. The study found that foam significantly enhanced the compressibility, pore pressure, and lateral pressure of the conditioned sand. However, under high chamber pressure, the compression of foam may not meet the requirements for EPB shield tunnelling.

Evaluating rheology of conditioned soil using commercially available surfactants (foam) for simulation of material flow through EPB machine

Wei Hu et al.

Summary: The number of soft-ground Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs) with active support pressure has significantly increased globally in recent decades. Over 90% of these machines are Earth Pressure Balance (EPB) TBMs, which condition the muck in their excavation chambers and screw conveyors to improve operation efficiency. This paper reviews soil rheology measurement systems and investigates the interdependence between soil conditioning settings and rheological parameters in EPB machines.
