The mechanical response characteristics of piles under different tunneling parameters and geological conditions during shield cutting are analyzed. The results indicate that an increase in penetration leads to a gradual increase in the displacement of the pile head in both the tunneling and vertical directions; that changes in cutterhead rotation speed affect mainly the peak value of horizontal displacement; and that the Young’s modulus of the rock above the tunnel is the primary factor. Changes in penetration, cutterhead rotation speed, pile concrete strength, and Young’s modulus of rock significantly affect the displacement of the pile body in the tunneling direction within the non-cutting zone. The vibration of the pile head induced by pile cutting is mainly in the vertical direction, with primary frequencies of 50 Hz and harmonics in the horizontal and tunneling directions, and approximately 125 Hz in the vertical direction. When the Young’s modulus of the excavation stratum is closer to that of the pile concrete, the differences in pile-head vibrations among the three directions are minimized.

Key factors including tunnel deformation and leakage are investigated to explore their coupled relationship with the strata. Numerical simulations are also employed to reproduce the physical process of tunnel leakage-induced disasters, verifying the conclusions regarding the coupled relationship.

The development of new leakage points and strata erosion mutually promote each other, indicating a coupled development relationship.

A three-dimensional, unsteady, compressible N-S equation with the <em>k-ε</em> two-equation turbulence model and a sliding mesh technique are employed to simulate the tunnel pressure waves when a maglev train operates at different speeds ranging from 400 km/h to 600 km/h.

With regard to the maxima of the MPWs, the power exponent for the arch lattice-shell hood is 3.90 while that for the enlarged cross-section hood is 4.12, which indicates that the arch lattice-shell hood has a better adaptability to train operating speeds.

This study examines the underlying mechanisms and energy thresholds of pillar burst through impact tests conducted on axially pre-stressed sandstone samples using a coupled static-dynamic loading system. By analyzing dynamic responses, failure patterns and energy evolution under varying axial stress ratios (0–0.8) and incident energies, five distinct final patterns of rock samples are identified: intact, axial splitting, local spalling, delayed pulverization and instant pulverization. Among them, the local spalling and delayed pulverization are recognized as pillar burst indicators, exhibiting post-peak strain recovery, time-delayed fragment ejection, and compressive-shear failure features. The results reveal that the occurrence of pillar burst is jointly governed by static pre-stress and dynamic disturbance, with the critical incident energy thresholds decreasing as axial stress increases. Moreover, the co-driving mechanism is elucidated as high static pre-stress enhances strain energy storage, while dynamic disturbances initiate microcrack growth and energy release. An empirical model is established to predict the critical incident energy density, incorporating rock strength, elastic modulus and axial stress ratio. Based on these findings, an integrated prevention strategy combining stress control, disturbance reduction, and rockmass reinforcement is advocated to mitigate pillar burst risks.

First, an online data stream processor, incorporating real-time data acquisition, segmentation, and stream processing, is developed to extract physical shared features. Next, an online learning module based on the long short-term memory and probabilistic state machine (LSTM-PSM) is developed for classification probability evolution estimation. Finally, a case study is conducted to validate the framework using shared features from two tunnels.

Results demonstrate that (1) The proposed online transfer learning method can accurately identify rock mass classification and state transition processes, (2) Physical shared features from the rock-cutting process exhibit superior performance in similarity measures and provide ease of transfer due to their accessibility in different tunnels, and (3) The online learning module outperforms state-of-the-art offline transfer learning methods in terms of accuracy and model reliability.

However, in soft clay, the dissipation of excess pore pressure generated during grouting leads to post-grouting tunnel settlement, diminishing grouting efficiency. A novel analytical model is proposed in this study to predict the uplift displacement of tunnels in soft clay. The model decomposes displacement into initial uplift displacement during grouting and post-grouting settlement. During grouting, the additional loads caused by grouting pressure are calculated based on Mindlin’s solution. Initial uplift displacement is then determined based on soil-tunnel interaction theory. For the post-grouting phase, an undrained cylindrical cavity expansion solution considering vertical strain is established to obtain excess pore pressure distribution in the plastic region. The additional displacement loads induced by pressure dissipation are then calculated using the stochastic medium theory, and post-grouting settlement is derived based on the soil-tunnel interaction theory. The effectiveness of proposed method is ultimately confirmed by comparing the field monitoring results of the Nanjing Metro Line 10 grouting project. Furthermore, a parametric analysis is conducted to investigate the influences of key parameters on uplift displacement and grouting efficiency. Results indicate that increased grouting volume significantly enhances both initial and final uplift displacements but minimally affects grouting efficiency. Grouting height exhibits less influence on uplift displacement and grouting efficiency. As overconsolidation ratio increases, post-grouting settlement significantly reduces, resulting in substantially improved final uplift displacement and grouting efficiency. Increasing grouting spacing increases grouting efficiency but reduces both initial and final uplift displacements.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49414,"journal":{"name":"Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 107129"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145159680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
