Excessive blast-induced vibration may cause damage and even the collapse of
underground tunnels, and the monitoring and prediction of vibration have an important …

The construction of shallow tunnels has become increasingly challenging due to the
complex geological conditions encountered, particularly in boulder-cobble mixed (BCM) …

For ensuring safety during the construction and use of a super-large cross-section tunnel, it
is essential to understand the lining structure failure pattern and the instability of the …

This study presents a hybrid model based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO)
algorithm and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. PSO can determine the …

A water-filled cave can easily result in the deterioration of the surrounding rock when a
shield tunnel passes through the urban karst area, resulting in engineering disasters such …

The deformation of bottom rock masses surrounding a tunnel may lead to floor upheaval,
structural damage and track irregularity during operation when the tunnel is constructed in …

Water inrush disaster seriously affects the safety of karst tunnel construction. It's essential to
assess the risk level of water inrush in karst tunnels accurately, and take some effective …

Tunnels are unavoidably constructed in layered rock masses, and tunnel collapses are often
associated with such layering. Two violent collapses at the Yangshan tunnel were analysed …

An accurate prediction of earth pressure balance (EPB) shield moving performance is
important to ensure the safety tunnel excavation. A hybrid model is developed based on the …

Underground mining engineering causes complex changes in the three-dimensional stress
near the working face of a mine, resulting in deformation and failure of the roof and floor …
