Abstract

In order to investigate the stability problem of shield tunnel faces subjected to seismic loading, the pseudo-dynamic method (P-DM) was employed to analyze the seismic effect on the face. Two kinds of failure mechanisms of active collapse and passive extrusion were considered, and a seismic reliability model of shield tunnel faces under multi-failure mode was established. The limit analysis method and the response surface method (RSM) were used together to solve the reliability of shield tunnel faces subjected to seismic action. Comparing with existing results, the results of this work are effective. The effects of seismic load and rock mass strength on the collapse pressure, extrusion pressure and reliability index were discussed, and reasonable ranges of support pressure of shield tunnel faces under seismic action were presented. This method can provide a new idea for solving the shield thrust parameter under the seismic loading.

摘要

为了研究地震作用下盾构隧道掌子面的可靠性问题,采用拟动力法分析掌子面上的地震效应。考虑主动坍塌和被动挤出2 种失效模式,建立了多失效模式下盾构隧道掌子面的抗震可靠度模型。将极限分析法与响应面法相结合,求解了地震作用下盾构隧道掌子面的可靠度。与已有研究成果进行对比,本文计算结果是有效的。分析了地震力和岩体强度对坍塌压力、挤出压力及可靠指标的影响,并给出了地震作用下盾构隧道掌子面支护力的合理范围。本文方法可为求解地震作用下的盾构推力参数提供一种新思路。
