In this paper a numerical approach is proposed for the construction of fragility curves for
shallow metro tunnels in alluvial deposits, when subjected to transversal seismic loading …

A 1 g shaking table test is conducted to investigate seismic responses of a segmental tunnel
in sand under near-fault motions. The tunnel model is assembled with segments, bolts and …

The impact of the incident angle of earthquake motion on the seismic response of the long
lined tunnels is studied. Based on the time‐domain finite element method with the viscous …

This study aims to analysis the longitudinal seismic responses of circular tunnels across soil-
rock stratum longitudinally (“soil-rock” means two different stratums, not just the soil and rock …

In this study, a simple method was proposed to calculate the equivalent loadings in ground
induced by Rayleigh waves at the critical second. Subsequently, a closed-form solution was …

Analytical solutions based on the elastic foundation beam model for the bending response
of circular tunnels under longitudinally propagating shear waves are studied considering the …

Segmental tunnel linings are now often used for seismic areas. However, the influence of
segment joints on the segmental lining behavior under seismic loading has not been …

An analytical solution can easily and quickly give the internal forces in tunnels due to
seismic waves, by which, the relationship between the key parameters could also be …

A simplified analytical solution is developed for estimating the thrusts and bending moments
of the circular tunnel in half space under the obliquely incident SV wave. The seismic waves …

In order to study the seismic response of deep non-circular tunnels under far-field seismic
SV waves, a pseudo-static analytical solution for the seismic response of the tunnel was first …
