Effect of soil models on the prediction of ground settlement due to tunnelling

This project discusses primarily prediction of ground settlement due to tunnelling using the different constitutive soil models offered in PLAXIS, a finite element geotechnical analysis program. As a secondary method of analysis, empirical estimation using the inverted normal distribution curve form...
