The cross tunnel-slope system has a strong sensitivity to seismic waves and is extremely
prone to potential seismic damage. To investigate the seismic failure mechanism and …

The flexibility ratio (F) is defined as the stiffness of a structure relative to that of soil, a critical
factor affecting the soil–structure interaction. This study aimed to investigate the effect of F on …

The seismic failure mechanism of a shallow-buried prefabricated corrugated steel utility
tunnel on the liquefiable ground was investigated by the shaking table test and numerical …

During the 1995 Kobe earthquake in Japan, the Daikai subway station suffered total
collapse, which made the research on the seismic failure mechanism of underground frame …

The response of tunnels subjected to ground seismic shaking is commonly evaluated,
disregarding the existence of other structures in the near area. However, significant …

The RF method is commonly implemented in design practice to evaluate the response of
rectangular tunnels subjected to ground seismic shaking in the transversal direction. The …

The main purpose of this research is to predict the ground surface settlement in tunneling of
a single circular tunnel with simultaneous changes in the mechanical properties of soil and …

During the Kobe earthquake in 1995, Daikai subway station suffered the severe collapse,
which aroused people's more attention to the earthquake damage response of underground …

Soil deposits inevitably affect the seismic performance of underground structures, and
underground tunnels are commonly constructed on sites composed of layered soil deposits …

Better understanding the underground structure scattering on the wave propagation may aid
in the development of more safety earthquake resistant design and disaster prevention …
