In urban areas, new tunnels are frequently constructed beneath existing tunnels. The
common prediction of the deformation of existing tunnels depends on an elastic continuous …

In urban areas, it is common to construct new tunnels beneath existing buried pipelines. The
accurate estimation of the response of pipelines and the overlying ground is of great …

Empirical formulas and closed-form solutions provide, in many cases, good predictions of
tunnelling-induced ground movements which, when combined with their computational …

The tunnel-pipeline-soil interaction has gotten momentum recently, but most of the previous
studies were focused on the responses of pipeline to single tunnelling and simplified the …

Current research to predict the soil deformation due to tunneling pays little attention to the
impact of soil–liner interaction. Moreover, the conventional solution for the stress function …

Shield-driven tunneling will encounter huge risk of potential accidents as a consequence of
groundwater level surprising variation in the course of construction. Current studies seldom …

Current analytical solutions on the ground movements and stresses induced by shield
tunneling in soft soils are generally based on the instantaneous excavation behavior …

Soil-pipeline separation due to tunnelling has been certainly substantiated in previous
model tests. However, this phenomenon has seldom been considered in current analytical …

The response of a jointed pipeline to tunnelling-induced ground settlement relies largely on
the soil-pipe interaction. An analytical solution incorporating the Pasternak model is …

This paper focuses on the effect of tunneling-induced ground deformation on the response
of jointed cast iron and ductile iron pipelines that (i) cross the settlement profile …
