Development of crack and damage in shield tunnel lining under seismic loading: Refined 3D finite element modeling and analyses

Chao Liu et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the development of crack and damage in shield tunnel lining under seismic loading. Based on a recently constructed undersea-shield tunnel, a series of refined 3D Finite Element models are created and validated. The simulation results show that damage tends to occur at the crown and bottom of the tunnel lining, and the segment assembling type has significant influence on the damage development.

Load-transfer-associated settlements of a piled building during shield tunnelling in soft ground

Gang Zheng et al.

Summary: This study investigates the response of piled buildings to shield tunnelling in soft ground, showing that the position of the tunnel relative to the pile foundation significantly affects building settlement. Two different settlement patterns are observed: when the tunnel is excavated below the pile foundation, settlement is mainly caused by unloading in the soil above the tunnel crown; when the tunnel is excavated on the side of the pile foundation, settlement is mainly caused by compressing the pile-tip soil.

Summary: This paper presents a new analytical solution for evaluating the longitudinal deformation of shield tunnel in overcrossing tunnelling, taking into consideration circumferential joints. A simplified longitudinal beam-spring model is established to accurately model the longitudinal behavior of the tunnel, considering the opening and dislocation between segmental rings. The proposed method is verified through various cases and compared with other analytical methods, demonstrating its effectiveness in capturing tunnel segmental ring and joint deformation.

Limit equilibrium models for active failures of large-diameter shield tunnel faces in soft clay reinforced with soil-cement walls

Dong Su et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the failure mechanism of tunnel faces in reinforced soft soil through finite-element analysis, focusing on the influence of the distance between the tunnel face and the cement wall. The limit support pressure and failure zone of the soil in front of the tunnel face are determined for different values of the face-wall distance. Three types of failure modes are identified based on the shear strain development, and analytical expressions for calculating the limit support pressure are derived. The proposed collapse models accurately reflect the impact of the face-wall distance on the stability of tunnel faces in soft clay reinforced with soil-cement wall.

Rujia Li et al.

Summary: In this paper, a self-designed test device was used to investigate sand erosion and void development induced by shield-tunnel joint leakage. The experimental results show that sand erosion has obvious temporal and spatial evolution characteristics. It can be divided into four stages in the temporal dimension and three regions in the spatial dimension. The erosion zone can be described by a rotating ellipsoid, and its scope increases with increasing water head.

Seismic damage characteristics of large-diameter shield tunnel lining under extreme-intensity earthquake

Zhenyun Zhao et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the damage pattern of the concrete lining in a large-diameter subsea shield tunnel under different seismic loading intensities. A refined finite element (FE) model is established to study the influence on lining segments and joint openings. The results show that the damage to the segment is mainly concentrated in certain areas, the moment of damage development is related to the seismic time history, and the area and level of lining damage increase with the earthquake intensity.

Failure mechanism of underwater shield tunnel: An experimental and theoretical study

Kun Liang et al.

Summary: This study proposes a plastic hinge-based approach to investigate the failure mechanism of underwater shield tunnel lining structures. The study conducted full-scale tests on two types of shield tunnel lining structures: straight-joint assembly structure (STRJS) and staggered joint assembly structure (STGJS), and compared their failure mechanisms using the plastic hinge approach. The results showed that the assembly method significantly affected the failure pattern, and STRJS and STGJS failed through longitudinal joints and concrete segments, respectively. It highlights the importance of considering the assembly method and the type of plastic hinge in the design of underwater shield tunnel lining structures.

Experimental study of the coupling effect on segmental shield tunnel lining under surcharge loading and excavation unloading

Jin-Zhang Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the coupling effect of loading and unloading on shield tunnels through physical model tests. The results show that the response of the tunnel lining is significantly amplified under coupling conditions. A coupling effect index is proposed to evaluate the degree of coupling under different disturbances, and it is classified into favorable, zero, and unfavorable coupling effects. The tunnel response has a more significant coupling effect when loading occurs before unloading.

Research on the influence of foundation pit excavation on the lateral force and deformation of side shield tunnels based on full-scale experiments

Gang Wei et al.

Summary: In order to investigate the internal force and deformation response of the Hangzhou subway shield segment during the excavation and unloading of the side foundation pit, full-scale loading tests were conducted using a self-developed hydraulic loading system. The internal force and deformation of the segment structure were analyzed considering factors such as the foundation pit and tunnel clear distance. A numerical model was established to analyze parameters that were difficult to obtain in experiments, such as the tunnel depth. The results showed that the equal load maintained the segment in a balanced state, with large internal forces and deformations. The maximum positive and negative bending moment increased after the excavation, while the maximum axial force decreased. The numerical model proved effective in analyzing the stress state of the tunnel.

Effect of seepage on soil arching effect in deep shield tunnel

Xu Song et al.

Summary: This study establishes a numerical model and verifies it with field data to investigate the effect of post-tunneling steady seepage on soil arching evolution. The results show that seepage leads to an increase in effective vertical stress and weakens the soil arching effect, reducing the height of the arch zone. Seepage also intensifies ground consolidation settlement while decreasing the differential displacement in the soil mass. The ground reaction curve under steady seepage condition shows higher values compared to after excavation. It is recommended to control the ground loss ratio within the range of 0.5-1.0% to minimize overburden pressure and moderate ground deformation.

Analysis of bending deflection of tunnel segment under load- and corrosion-induced cracks by improved XFEM

Xiaohui Zhang et al.

Summary: An improved XFEM method is proposed in this paper to calculate the cracks of a segment under the effects of an external load and reinforcement corrosion. The study shows that the morphology of the corrosion-induced cracks can be described as multiple connected ellipses, and the load-induced cracks on the surface of the segment affect the span length and angle of the corrosion-induced cracks. With longer corrosion time, the deflection of the segment increases more significantly under certain bending moments.

A study on damage mechanism modelling of shield tunnel under unloading based on damage ? plasticity model of concrete

Jianwen Liu et al.

Summary: This study presents a rational modeling procedure for the damage mechanism and serviceability of shield tunnel under unloading based on damage constitutive model of concrete. The research shows that tension damage dominates while compression damage is minor when shield tunnel suffers unloading stress, causing additional shear force and bending moment. The proposed modeling procedure is competent to capture the shield tunnel responses due to unloading, highlighting areas with severe damage and lowest serviceability that require special attention.
