Stability Analysis of Three-Dimensional Tunnel Face Considering Linear and Nonlinear Strength in Unsaturated Soil

The shear strength of unsaturated soils exhibits significant nonlinearity, while previous studies often simplified it with linear strength models. The objective of this paper is to investigate the distinctions in the stability of three-dimensional (3D) tunnel faces when using linear and nonlinear st...
