The application of advanced sensing technology is of great significance for investigating the
disturbance caused by tunnel excavation. In this paper, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing …

This paper presents an assessment of the influence of the lagging distance between two
horizontal tunnel faces of the side-by-side twin tunnels on the responses of the adjacent …

Pile's excessive internal forces and displacements induced by adjacent tunnelling can
cause serious serviceability problems for infrastructure aboveground, emphasizing the …

Construction of tunnels in urban cities may induce excessive settlement and tilting of nearby
existing pile foundations. Various studies reported in the literature have investigated the …

This study reports a series of centrifuge model tests, aiming at investigating the effects of
construction sequence of twin stacked tunnels advancement on an existing pile group under …

This paper presents lateral responses of an existing 2× 2 pile group to advancement of side-
by-side twin tunnels (with 1% volume loss) at various depths in dry sand using 3D centrifuge …

To gain new insights into single pile responses to adjacent excavations in soft ground, three
dimensional numerical parametric studies are carried out. An advanced hypoplastic (clay) …

Tunneling beneath piled structures may compromise the stability and serviceability of the
structure. The assessment of potential structure damage is a problem being faced by …

Tunnels are constructed increasingly close to existing buried structures, including pile
foundations. This poses serious concerns, especially for tunnels built beneath piles. Current …

This paper proposes an analytical method based on drained solutions of cavity expansion
and contraction in a unified clay and sand model to investigate tunnel–soil–pile interactions …
