Abstract

Taking the water-rich pebble stratum under a subway tunnel as the engineering background, this paper explores the mechanical response characteristics of multi factor changes in shield tunnel construction to the tunnel stratum. Based on numerical simulation and combined with fluid structure coupling effect, the influence law of passive factors (buried depth and head height) on tunnel seepage field, stress field and displacement field are studied. At the same time, the influence of active factors (segment width, equivalent layer thickness and soil bin pressure) on tunnel safety evaluation index is studied combined with orthogonal test. The results show that the pore water pressure around the lining is positively correlated with the buried depth and head height, and the pore water pressure at each position of the outer wall of the lining is: arch waist > arch bottom > arch crown; the surrounding rock stress increases linearly with the buried depth and head height, and is symmetrical along the axial direction of the tunnel, and the stress growth rate of each position is more affected by the head height Large; at a single section, the stratum settlement and horizontal displacement are positively correlated with the head height, and the buried depth has little effect on the horizontal displacement, but the influence range extends to a certain extent; when taking the maximum surface settlement, maximum transverse displacement and maximum segment bending moment as the evaluation indexes, it is analyzed that the segment width and silo pressure are the main effects (significant) Factor, while the thickness of equivalent layer is a general (insignificant) factor.
