These parameters affect excavation methods, excavation cycles, rock reinforcement strategies, and the timing of support installation. Currently, evaluations are largely empirical, based on surrounding rock classification, making it challenging to ascertain the long-term stability of the rock-structure. Utilizing creep damage model theory, we derived the viscoelastic-plastic response of surrounding rock under creep. A method for calculating tunnel support time under various geological conditions was proposed, combining longitudinal deformation curves. The stabilization time of surrounding rock-primary support under different conditions was derived from tunnel support characteristic curves. Key findings include: ① The stand-up time of unsupported surrounding rock decreases with increased tunnel depth, increases with higher GSI (Geological Strength Index), and extends with greater maximum allowable displacement. ② The stabilization time for supported surrounding rock-structure increases as support distance decreases, support time decreases, support stiffness increases, and reserved deformation increases.

Given the significant gravitational force of the rock mass and ground stress, the collapse height serves as a key identification factor. Starting with the jamming scenarios of the cutterhead and shield, a mechanical expression for the theoretical model of collapse height is formulated. By incorporating numerical model findings on the extent of rock mass displacement deformation due to excavation disturbance, data from the Xianglushan Tunnel are used to verify the alignment between the theoretical model and simulation results. he findings indicate that the theoretical model-derived collapse height threshold for cutterhead jamming is 7.21 m above the TBM, showing a 90 % agreement with the numerical simulation result of 7.98 m and the maximum collapse cavity height measured in the field (8.0 m). The collapse height of 20.46 m for the shield jamming case corresponds to the open TBM scenario, where shield jamming is less likely. Additionally, the theoretically predicted average collapse heights of 5.31 m, 6.57 m, and 7.51 m under other contact scenarios closely correlate with the simulated displacement deformation zone heights of 5.03 m, 6.92 m, and 7.60 m, demonstrating a 94 % concordance. This theoretical model, showing strong applicability, is further extended to account for varying shield lengths (Ld) and contact range scenarios.

Methane with a purity of 99.9% is used as a surrogate for natural gas. A schlieren imaging system with a Z-shaped optical path was designed to visualize the high-speed gas jet. The concentration distribution, alarm time, dilution efficiency, and gas jet image were analyzed under the effect of various facility layouts, ventilation, and leakage rates. The results show that the gas leakage and dispersion process can be divided into three zones: upwind zone, leak zone, and downwind zone, characterized by complicated airflow collision, high-speed get jets, and stable dilution dispersion respectively. Scenario analysis highlights the significance of key facilities, such as cable brackets, in experimental and numerical modeling due to their impact on dispersion trajectories. Higher ventilation rates prove beneficial in reducing peak concentration, hazardous areas, and enhancing purge efficiency. Conversely, higher leakage rates exacerbate the likelihood and severity of gas explosions.

The impact of stress magnitude and direction on roadway failure was investigated using a rock failure system equipped with true triaxial loading, acoustic emission (AE), and digital image correlation (DIC) technologies. The system allowed for the simulation of rock sample failures under various three-dimensional stress conditions, while real-time monitoring was conducted using a high-precision microseismic system. By prefabricating rectangular holes at different angles in sandstone specimens, roadways under different stress effects in engineering can be simulated. Biaxial loading tests were then performed on these prefabricated sandstone cube specimens to observe external fracture characteristics and internal fracture information using acoustic emission equipment. The peak strength of samples with holes is approximately 38–56% of that of intact samples. In the early and middle loading stages, the strain on the surface is on the order of 10<sup>-3</sup>. In the later loading stage, the strain on the surface is on the order of 10<sup>-2</sup>. The findings indicate that roadway failure primarily involves local particle ejection, fragment spalling, large-scale particle ejection, plate crack buckling, and eventual failure.

At included angles of 30°, 45°, and 60° between stress and roadway axis, the roadway displays a “—” failure pattern along the diagonal, characterized by a combination of tension and shear failure. The extension angle of the“—” failure zone varies depending on the stress deflection angle.

Firstly, the concept of CSRC is introduced and relevant theoretical models are established. Then, the CSRC cut blasting is studied through numerical simulation and model testing methods. Finally, the CSRC cut blasting and digital electronic detonators are applied on site. The results indicate that arranging cut holes using this method makes the shape of the cutting cavity similar to the cross-sectional profile. And the resistance line of the next row of auxiliary holes becomes uniform, thereby enhancing rock fragmentation near adjacent auxiliary holes. Additionally, the use of discontinuous charges in deep hole excavation significantly improves excavation efficiency and increases the extent of rock damage. The industrial test results further validate that adjusting the layout of cut holes mainly affects rock fragmentation uniformity, the number of boreholes, and the quality of the surrounding formation. Adjusting the charging structure mainly influences the efficiency and depth of blasting excavation.

In this paper, an enhanced ground surface settlement prediction model, based on stochastic medium theory, is proposed. The model equates the settlement of the existing structure’s base slab to that of the overlying soil and divides the horseshoe-shaped tunnel cross-section into eight arc segments, which are calculated using a polar coordinate system. Furthermore, the model treats soil loss at the junctions of variable-section tunnels as a linear transition, introduces the concept of a linear transition segment for variable sections, and accounts for the superimposed effects of closely spaced twin-tunnel excavations. Based on this model, a general-purpose calculation program has been developed that enables the rapid prediction of ground surface deformation caused by a variable-section tunnel passing beneath existing structures, simply by inputting engineering parameters. Finally, the accuracy of the prediction model was validated through comparisons with field measurement data, finite element analysis results, and calculations based on traditional stochastic medium theory. The results indicate that the proposed prediction model demonstrates high consistency with field data and finite element analysis results, whereas traditional stochastic medium theory results exhibit significant errors.
