In this study, sophisticated numerical methods and constitutive models were used to study
the effect of combined fault rupture deformation and subsequent seismic excitation on a …

The current paper evaluates the response of a tunnel subjected to strike-slip fault rupture
with experimental and numerical approaches. Some state-of-art techniques were adopted in …

Knowledge from historical earthquake events indicates that a submarine tunnel crossing
active strike-slip faults is prone to be damaged in an earthquake. Previous studies have …

This paper proposes an analytical model for the longitudinal deformation response of cross-
fault shield tunnels, in which the tunnel is assumed to be a Timoshenko beam placed on …

Due to evidence that active-fault tunnels can result in structural damage, a three-
dimensional numerical model of a shield tunnel spanning a normal fault was developed by …

The dislocation momentum is the design basis for anti-dislocation to tunnel when a tunnel
crosses an active fault. The influence of different dislocation levels on tunnel performances …

In the seismic mountainous regions such as western China, it is usuallly inevitable to
construct tunnels near active fault zones. Those fault-crossing tunnel structures can be …

In the context of long-distance cross-basin water transfer projects, the water conveyance
tunnel serves as a pivotal component in mitigating regional disparities between economic …

The fault dislocation produces severe additional deformation on cross-fault tunnels along
the axial direction, seriously threatens tunnel safety. To this end, a simplified analytical …

Tunnels that cross active faults will inevitably be severely damaged, and there are mainly
five fault types. There are five main fault types: strike-slip fault, normal fault, reverse fault, and …
