A New Design Method of Shield Tunnel Based on the Concept of Minimum Bending Moment

As the soil-resistance coefficient in a soft soil area is small, overlarge bending moment may cause exceeding transverse deformation for the shield tunnel and cause structural diseases and waterproof failure at the longitudinal segment joints. Hence, a new idea of cross-section design for a minimum...
