Effect of blast inside tunnel on surrounding soil mass, tunnel lining, and superstructure for varying shapes of tunnels

In this study, a finite element (FE) analysis of shallow tunnels exposed to a blast inside the tunnel, with soil as surrounding medium and a structure at ground level, was performed.
