Predictions of ground surface settlement for shield tunnels in sandy cobble stratum based on stochastic medium theory and empirical formulas

This paper focuses on the prediction of ground surface settlement induced by shield tunnelling in sandy cobble stratum. Based on the stochastic medium theory, an analytical solution to predict the surface settlement is developed considering the difference between soil and tunnel volume loss. Then, t...
