A great concern for the construction surface cracks of large cross-section tunnels, which are
being or to be built in the loess strata of China, is attracted. The mechanism of surface crack …

A profound understanding of the interaction between loess slopes and tunnels, along with
the mastery of protective measures for tunnels crossing loess slopes, is crucial for ensuring …

With the rapid increase in the construction of loess tunnels, more and more problems are
encountered during the construction process, especially regarding the issue of collapse in …

The application of compressible layers is considered to be the most promising solution for
solving the problem of large deformations in deep soft-rock tunnels. However, although …

Fracture characteristics of rock and rational structural design are necessary to ensure the
stability of underground rock engineering. Early warning of rock damage is a hot and …

Ensuring the reliability of tunnel support systems is crucial for their safe and uninterrupted
use. However, tunnel engineering involves numerous uncertain factors, such as the …

Deep insight on the skid resistance of highway tunnel pavement is vital to driving safety of
vehicles. This paper presents a review on the skid resistance of cement concrete pavement …

Shallow tunnel can be directly affected by the terrain, and the traditional steel frame is prone
to distorting and buckling failure when the tunnel is constructed in a loess region, as it is …

Loess is a common soil layer of geological movement. It has macropores, vertical joints, and
tubular pores and also low strength and strong water sensitivity. When building a tunnel in a …

As yielding supports can deform without being damaged, the yielding principle has attracted
significant attention for tunnelling in squeezing ground compared with the heavy support …
