Long term ground movements above a tunnel may continue to increase with time after
tunnelling in clayey soils as the tunnelling-induced excess pore water pressures dissipate …

The paper focusses on the use of physical modelling in ground movements (induced by
underground cavity collapse or mining/tunnelling) and associated soil-structure interaction …

Internationally, the mechanized excavation of tunnels has intensified in the last two decades,
as the number of tunnels being constructed for subways and railway underpasses …

Building damage due to excavation-induced ground movement is evaluated using a
damage criterion based on the average state of strain in the distorting portion of the …

This paper presents a case of closely spaced twin tunnels excavated beneath other closely
spaced existing twin tunnels in Beijing, China. The existing twin tunnels were previously …

This paper concerns a study of the interaction between tunneling in soft soils and adjacent
structures. Analysis is performed using a full three-dimensional finite element model, which …

This paper proposes a novel hybrid approach that merges fuzzy matter element (FME),
Monte Carlo (MC) simulation technique, and Dempster–Shafer (D–S) evidence theory to …

Tunnelling provides a robust solution to a variety of engineering challenges. It is a complex
process, which requires a firm understanding of the ground conditions as well as the …

Slow-moving landslides yearly induce huge economic losses worldwide in terms of damage
to facilities and interruption of human activities. Within the landslide risk management …
