چکیده

the ground reaction curve (grc) is a vital component of the convergence-confinement method, which possesses many applications in the underground space designs. it defines a relation between the tunnel wall deformations and the ground pressure acting on the tunnel walls. generally, grc includes descending and ascending branches. according to many researchers, the descending branch trend for the ground pressure stops after the critical deformation, and thus the ground pressure on the support system increases due to the formation of a loosening zone and an ascending branch, and finally, the creation of an ultimate pressure on the support system. in this work, two relations are proposed to determine the ultimate ground pressure acting on a circular tunnel in a continuous medium. it is assumed that the rock mass obeys the elastic perfectly plastic model with a cohesionless behavior in the broken zone. this is accomplished by incorporating the duncan-fama solution and the two models of yanssen-kötter and caquot rigid plastic. the ground pressure obtained by the caquot model shows a better correlation with the goel-jethwa equation compared with the yanssen-kötter solution.

Analysis of support pressure for stabilization of rock blocks in the Zaker tunnel

This paper presents the results of engineering geological studies of rock blocks along a road tunnel in NW Iran. The tunnel is to cross the Western Alborz Mountain Range through 530 m in length with 11.2 m span and 8 m height. Eocene tuffs and andesites crop out in whole of the tunnel route. Numerical analyses are done using, a 3D stability analysis and visualization program, called Unwedge tha...

The Stability Assessment of Dasht-e-Abbas Pressure Intake Tunnel Subjected to Ground Strength Reduction-Iran

The hydraulic pressure is one of the most important factors in the design of pressure intake tunnels. Since the surrounding media cannot usually resist the high internal pressure of these tunnels, they are usually finished with an adequate lining mostly of reinforced concrete, which is an interaction problem between water, soil or rock and concrete lining. Although reinforcing the concrete lini...

Selection of Optimum Tunnel Support System Using Aggregated Ranking of SAW, TOPSIS and LA Methods

The selection of optimum support system is a key step in the successful design operation of tunneling, rock mass stabilization and minimization of plastic zone extension around a tunnel. In this context, it is not sufficient to rely only on the experiences of design engineers, but taking all effective measures and parameters is necessary to do a proper choice. In this paper, multi attribute dec...
