Track transitions such as bridge approaches, road crossings and shifts from slab track to
ballasted track are common locations where track degradation accelerates due to dynamic …

The longitudinal bending stiffness of tunnels is one of the most important parameters for the
structural design of the tunnel longitudinal deformations during seismic loading. The aim of …

The zones where tunnels through the active faults are proved to be seriously damaged
because of the fault dislocation which could be due to strong earthquakes. A steel reinforced …

This paper is based on the research and development of the first fully prefabricated subway
station in Changchun as the engineering background. Through the first large-scale shaking …

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 …

Social development has led to the placement of high standards on ultra-long and ultra-deep
mountain tunnels. Disasters may be encountered during the construction and maintenance …

The focus of immersed tunnel research has primarily revolved around settlement monitoring
or prediction. However, there has been a lack of discussion regarding the time-dependent …

Fluid flow in porous media is very important in a wide range of hydraulic and geotechnical
engineering fields. The theoretical basis of fluid flow in porous media is based on the …

An approach is developed for estimating the responses of a tunnel with multiple flexible
joints under fault movements. Initially, a new simplified mechanical model of flexible joints is …

With the design and development of the first fully prefabricated subway station structure
(assembled structure) in Changchun, China as the engineering background, large-scale …
