3d analysis of right angle tunnels under wave propagation effect with bem

Electromagnetic Wave Propagation in Circular Tunnels

The problem of guided wave propagation in a wave guide with imperfectly reflecting boundaries arises in several applications, such as propagation in mine tunnels and in screened surface wave guides. In recent years, many studies have been carried out on the propagation characteristic of radio waves in tunnels in UHF band [1-2]. From the theoretical point of view, tunnels can be regarded as holl...

Simulation of Radio Wave Propagation in Arched Cross-section Tunnels

Since several years, wireless communication systems are developed for train to infrastructure communication needs related to railway or mass transit applications. The systems should be able to operate in specific environments like tunnels. In this context, specific radio planning tools have to be developed to optimise system deployment. Realistic tunnels geometries are generally of rectangular ...

Variational Principle and Plane Wave Propagation in Thermoelastic Medium with Double Porosity Under Lord-Shulman Theory

The present study is concerned with the variational principle and plane wave propagation in double porous thermoelastic infinite medium. Lord-Shulman theory [2] of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time has been used to investigate the problem. It is found that for two dimensional model, there exists four coupled longitudinal waves namely longitudinal wave (P), longitudinal thermal wave (T),...

A 3D Finite-Difference Analysis of Interaction between a Newly-Driven Large Tunnel with Twin Tunnels in Urban Areas

Evaluation of the interaction between a new and the existing underground structures is one of the important problems in urban tunneling. In this work, using FLAC3D, four numerical models of single- and twin-tube tunnels in urban areas are developed, where the horizontal distance between the single- and twin-tube tunnels are varied. The aim is to analyze the effects of the horizontal dista...

Shoreline instability under low - angle wave incidence

11 The growth of megacusps as shoreline instabilities is investigated by ex-12 amining the coupling between wave transformation in the shoaling zone, long-13 shore transport in the surf zone, cross-shore transport, and morphological 14 evolution. This coupling is known to drive a potential positive feedback in 15 case of very oblique wave incidence, leading to an unstable shoreline and the 16 c...
