This paper presents an overview on the risk assessment approaches for inundation of metro
systems based on regional flood risk assessment methods. Detailed summarization is …

Excavation nearby an existing tunnel is frequently encountered in underground construction,
especially in congested urban areas. Essentially, the responses of the ground and existing …

A fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) is an effective risk assessment method in which
a questionnaire is used to collect experts' responses. However, determining fuzzy numbers …

Metro system is a vital component of mass transportation infrastructure, providing crucial
social and economic service in urban area. Flood events may cause functional disruptions to …

A new numerical approach for modelling the localised leakage of shield tunnel lining is
proposed, in which the localised leakage is simulated using a one-dimensional leakage …

This study investigates the coupled effect of the soil spatial variations and the disturbance of
ground surface on the existing tunnel using random finite difference method (RFDM). The …

This study presents an improved trapezoidal fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) to
assess the risk of mega-city infrastructures related to land subsidence. The trapezoidal fuzzy …

A comparative study of optimization techniques for identifying soil parameters in
geotechnical engineering was first presented. The identification methodology with its 3 main …

With the expansion of underground space networks, new tunnels especially large-diameter
shields under-crossing existing tunnels have been commonly practiced. To obtain a better …

Shield tunnels in soft deposits are often subjected to differential settlement and longitudinal
structural deformation during long-term operation. Since the shear stiffness in circumferential …
