Ground Movements due to Shallow Tunnels in Soft Ground: 2. Analytical Interpretation and Prediction

This paper considers the practical application of analytical solutions for estimating ground movements caused by shallow tunneling in soft ground using closed-form expressions presented in a companion paper based on linearly elastic and average-dilation models of soil behavior. The analytical soluti...
