Surface settlements induced by twin tunneling in silty sand

open access: yesUnderground Space, 2022
Surface settlements caused by twin tunneling are a major interest in underground space engineering. Most prevailing studies have investigated the surface settlements observed over twin tunnels constructed in clay. Yet, less attention is given to the twin

Quantitative Evaluation of the Adaptability of the Shield Machine Based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP)

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Tunnel engineering based on the shield method is an extremely complex project. During the construction process, many uncertain factors are often faced, which makes it difficult to effectively and quantitatively evaluate the effectiveness of the shield ...

Soil Improvement of EPBS Construction in High Water Pressure and High Permeability Sand Stratum

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
A mud-water balance shield is the preferred method for the high permeability and high water pressure stratum, but when restricted by construction and environmental conditions, the shield must be constructed with the earth pressure balance shield (EPBS ...

Systematic study of effect of cross-drafts and nozzle diameter on shield gas coverage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A shield gas flow rate of 15–20 L min21 is typically specified in metal inert gas welding, but is often adjusted to as high as 36 L min21 by welders in practice. Not only is this overuse of shield gas wasteful, but uncontrolled high gas flows can lead to

Visualization of Multivariate Time-Series Characteristics of Ground Loss Caused by Shield Tunneling

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
Ground loss due to earth pressure balance shield tunneling eventually leads to a surface settlement which can be an issue of great concern. However, the existing machine learning methods ignore the continuous and dynamic nature of EPB shield tunneling ...

Phenomenon and Critical Conditions of Chamber Soil Sliming during EPB Shield Tunneling in Water-Rich Weathered Diorite: Case Study of Jinan Metro, China

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
The sliming problem of chamber soil is caused by excessive groundwater seeping into the pressure chamber when an Earth pressure balance shield tunnels through a water-rich weathered rock stratum under semiopen under-pressure mode.
