Abstract: In tunnelling, the use of finite element (FE) modelling to determine lining stress and in-tunnel displacement is a commonly employed practice. Two modelling techniques used are two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) analysis, with preference being to the latter. This is to account for many of the 3D occurrences that are not captured in 2D FE modelling despite their computational...
