Based on specific examples of underpass tunnel blasting, field measurements, and numerical simulation studies are carried out. According to the results of the blasting vibration data measured on-site, a regression model of the blasting vibration velocity is established. Based on the wavelet packet energy spectrum analysis method, the effect of frequency on the vibration response intensity is studied. In addition, the maximum charge per delay allowed for tunnel blasting is obtained by formula inversion. Relying on ANSYS/LS-DYNA to establish a three-dimensional numerical model, the accuracy of numerical simulation can be checked by the measured vibration data. The results show that the numerical simulation has high precision and can meet the subsequent analysis needs. Using numerical simulation, the variation law of the vibration response characteristics of ground blasting under different tunnel burial depths is studied. The analysis results show that with increasing tunnel burial depth, the ground blasting vibration velocity decays exponentially. According to the corresponding specification of blasting vibration, a reasonable value range of the buried depth of the underpass tunnel can be obtained. The research ideas and methods introduced can be used for reference for similar railway tunnel blasting control and railway tunnel route selection.
Steel pipe columns are an important component in subway station construction and with stand stress state and internal force during the construction process. Based on the engineering background of Beijing subway, this paper introduces the geological conditions, station structure types, and internal force monitoring of steel pipe columns of 10 subway stations constructed by the PBA method. The field monitoring indicates that the greatest change in the internal force of the steel pipe column occurs during stage 1 (beam, primary support, and secondary lining buckle arch construction stage), no matter pile foundation station or strip foundation station, which accounts for about 60% to 65% of the total axial force. When the left and right spans are not synchronously arched or excavated, the steel pipe column is subjected to uneven forces and bears a large bending moment is produced. When the depth of overburden is between 7 m and 15 m, the internal force of the steel pipe changes positively correlated with the overburden depth. During the construction process, the internal force of the steel pipe varies widely in the silty sand stratum. Also, the steel pipe columns in stations affected by groundwater bears about twice of the axial force compared with other stations are not affected by groundwater. In addition, the construction period is also a factor that affects changes in internal forces. This research is conducive to update the database of the world subway projects and can serve as a practical reference for similar geological condition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
