The paper presents a state-of-the-art review of the current understanding of the seismic
behaviour of tunnels. Emphasis is placed on recorded responses of actual tunnels during …

The high uncertainties involved in the design and construction of mountain tunnels have
driven the development of risk analysis procedures to control the risk level within an …

Underground structures, tunnels, subways, metro stations and parking lots, are crucial
components of the build environment and transportation networks. Considering their …

Tunnels often suffered severe seismic damage when passing through the active fault in high
intensity earthquake area. The fault movement might be divided into fault movement and …

A numerical parametric study was conducted on diverse soil-rectangular tunnel systems,
aiming to shed light on critical response characteristics of rectangular tunnels subjected to …

A series of dynamic centrifuge tests were carried out at the geotechnical centrifuge facility of
IFSTTAR in Nantes, to investigate the response of box-type tunnels embedded in dry sand …

The faults play an important role in inducing tremendous potential threat to the stability
capability of embedded tunnels in strong earthquake events. Based on the finite element …

To investigate the mechanical response and failure characteristic of mining tunnel under the
effect of normal fault dislocation and the effect of dislocation resistant design parameters on …

In this study, a transient seismic structure-water-sediment-rock (SWSR) interaction model is
proposed to evaluate seismic response of marine structure in ocean space under obliquely …

Fault dislocation seriously threatens the structural security of cross-fault tunnels during
operation. Regarding the mechanical response of the tunnel across faults, the tunnel was …
