Abstract: This study investigates the effect of the position of the pile with respect to the tunnel in the longitudinal direction (such as pile at the center of a ring or the joint between two rings) on tunnel responses. Series of numerical analyses are performed in the study. The results indicate that the position of the pile along the tunnel longitudinal direction has a significant impact on the...
Abstract: This study analyses the impacts of pile under loading on existing tunnel segment structure focusing on the tunnel behavior. Key influencing parameters, particularly the positions of key segment and pile tip, are also investigated. The results show that the behavior of the tunnel lining due to the effect of loaded pile is different when the tunnel lining is considered as assembly of segments....
