Rigorous understanding of tunnel fire attributes and behavior of concrete at elevated
temperatures are indispensable for conducting a numerical simulation of tunnel linings …

This article provides a summary of substantial aspects pertaining to the design of concrete
tunnel linings subjected to serious fire exposure. Compared to building fires, the air …

Fire hazards are a major threat to tunnel structures; however, the existing understanding of
the behavior of tunnel linings under fire is limited, which restricts cost-effective and safe …

There are no available guidelines or methodologies to design the concrete lining in a tunnel
for loss of functionality following a fire event. Historical tunnel fires confirm that tunnel …

Fire is a significant hazard to the safe operation of tunnels, causing extensive damage and
deterioration to the lining. This research proposed a prototype test of a shield tunnel …

This paper presents a comprehensive experimental study on the comparative behaviour of
the reinforced concrete (RC) and the hybrid fibre reinforced concrete (HFRC) shield TBM …

Tunnel linings would suffer heavy structural damage or even collapse when exposed to a
long-duration fire. The damage is greatly affected by heating time. In this paper, a theoretical …

This paper presents the full-scale experimental test results of actual RC (reinforced
concrete) metro shield TBM (tunnel boring machine) tunnel linings that are exposed to a …

This paper examines different modeling approaches to simulate the behavior of reinforced
concrete (RC) tunnel slabs under fire during both the heating and cooling phases. Three …

This paper presents comprehensive experimental test results on the behavior of the
reinforced concrete (RC) and the steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) shield TBM (Tunnel …
