Traditional subway construction technology still mainly involves on-site poured concrete
construction, which causes many social and environmental problems and at the same time …

Three-sided underpass culverts are structural systems used to provide passing vehicle or
pedestrian. It is of great importance that such infrastructure systems remain useable …

A nonlinear three-dimensional finite element model is employed to investigate the seismic
performance and failure mechanism of a subway station. The interaction between subway …

Earthquake is a threat to all kinds of structures including underground structures. Before the
1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Japan earthquake, however, it was considered that underground …

Damage cases show that during earthquakes, the sharp stiffness mutation of subway station-
tunnel junction structures can lead to dislocations at the connections. To address this …

In this work, we have studied the effects of different soil thicknesses, haunch heights,
reinforcement forms and construction technologies on the seismic performance of a …

A combination of a gravity wall and an anchor beam is widely used to support the high soil
deposit on rock mass. In this study, two groups of shaking table test were performed to …

The classical earth pressure theory assumes a semi-infinite soil behind the wall, which is no
longer applicable to the problem of earth pressure in the case of finite soil. A field study was …

The ground is simultaneously subjected to both horizontal and vertical motions during
earthquakes; however, the majority of existing studies on seismic compression are still …

Studying the critical response characteristics of box culverts with diverse geometrical
configurations under seismic excitations is a necessary step to develop a reasonable design …
