Numerical Investigation of Bored Tunnelling Effects on Pile‐Supported Superstructures
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tunnelling in urban environments can significantly affect existing buried structures such as pile foundations. However, the current understanding of how tunnelling‐induced ground movements influence the stability and serviceability of piles remains limited. This knowledge gap presents potential risks that must be addressed during tunnel design
