Water inrush hazard seriously threatens construction safety of subsea tunnels in unfavorable
geological areas. In recent years, a large number of subsea tunnels have been built …

When a submerged floating tunnel is connected to the ground, there is a risk of stress
concentration at the shore connection owing to the displacement imbalance caused by low …

In submerged floating tunnels (SFTs), a next-generation maritime transportation
infrastructure, the tunnel module floats in water due to buoyancy. For the effective and …

In designing earthquake-resistant structures, we traditionally select dynamic loads based on
the recurrence period of earthquakes, using individual seismic records or aligning them with …

In 2021, College of Civil Engineering and Architecture (CCEA) of Zhejiang University ZJU
and Zhejiang Communication Construction Group Co., LTD ZJCCGC established the Joint …

Submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is a new type of structure across long and deep water
straits and waterways with good application prospects. The structure is different from the …

In the construction industry, the deterioration of structures poses a significant challenge,
particularly when it comes to detecting cracks in concrete structures. Acoustic emission …

Submerged floating tunnels must be connected to the ground to connect continents. The
displacement imbalance at the shore connection between the underground bored tunnel …

ABSTRACT A submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is designed to have buoyancy and is
stabilized by tethers or pontoons to float in the water. Unlike tunnels installed underground …

The shore connection of the submerged floating tunnel (SFT) has a great influence on the
dynamic behavior of the submerged floating tunnel because it acts as a boundary condition …
