In recent decades, climate change and other anthropogenic activities have substantially
affected groundwater systems worldwide. These impacts include changes in groundwater …

Property economics favours the vertical development of cities but flow of groundwater can
be affected by the use of underground space in them. This review article presents the state …

This paper proposed a series of simple equations to calculate the head difference at the two
sides of waterproof curtain. The barrier effect of waterproof curtain is considered from two …

For deep excavation pits that require the pumping of confined groundwater, a combination of
a retaining wall and dewatering with large-diameter wells is usually adopted during …

When pumping is conducted in confined aquifer inside excavation pit (waterproof curtain),
the direction of the groundwater seepage outside the excavation changes from horizontal to …

Dewatering using a combination of waterproof curtain and pumping wells is commonly
adopted to ensure the stability of foundation pits in multi-aquifer strata. However, dewatering …

Dewatering before excavation can induce obvious wall deflection; however, engineers
rarely monitor it before excavation. This traditional monitoring data will undervalue the …

Prediction of time‐dependent groundwater inflow into a shield tunnel is a significant task
facing engineers. Published literature shows that there is no available method with which to …

In urban environment, there exist numerous pre-existing underground structures, which act
as underground barriers to block the groundwater flow and soil movement, ie, water …

Field records have demonstrated that the dewatering before soil excavation can induce
enclosure wall movement of up to 15 mm. Typically, this deformation is neglected and …
