Analytical solution for heave of underlying shield tunnel caused by adjacent tunnelling considering shear deformation
Zheng Wei
Abstract:Excavating a shield tunnel may cause a series of unforeseen adverse impacts on the adjacent underlying in-service tunnels. Therefore, it is significant to reasonably evaluate the influence of the newly excavated tunnel on the existing underlying shield tunnel to ensure safety and applicability of the existing tunnels. In this study, a simplified analytical solution is proposed to rapidly evaluate the responses of an existing underlying tunnel caused by newly tunnel construction. An elastic Timoshenko beam mode… Show more
