Behaviour of Square and Rectangular Tunnels Using an Improved Finite Element Method

Due to its advantages (fast and accurate calculations), the Hyperstatic Reaction Method (HRM) was used to calculate the internal forces of circular tunnel linings in former works. This paper presents an improved HRM method that is developed to estimate the internal forces induced in square and recta...
