Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of formation settlement prediction, and particularly to a three-dimensional settlement prediction method induced by tunnel excavation. Background Art

[0002] Tunnel excavation will destroy the initial equilibrium state of the soil mass, causing different degrees of settlement in the nearby formation. Excessive formation settlement will directly affect the structural stability of surrounding existing buildings and structures. Therefore, in actual engineering, it is necessary to reasonably predict the settlement values of the surface and deep soil mass after construction before the tunnel is excavated, so as to take corresponding control measures in advance to ensure the safety of the construction adjacent environment.

[0003] At present, regarding the prediction of formation settlement caused by tunnel excavation, there is mainly the numerical simulation method. According to the tunnel size and burial depth, a three-dimensional finite element model is established, and then displacement constraints are imposed on the soil mass. The disturbance of the tunneling machine to the soil mass is simulated by applying a forced displacement to the tunnel wall, including the influence of over-excavation gap, grouting pressure, etc. on the soil mass, and the settlement value is calculated therefrom. That is, the existing numerical simulation combines the excavation method and the support sequence, etc. to specifically simulate the tunnel excavation process, and the change characteristics of formation displacement can be intuitively obtained. However, since it is difficult for the model soil parameters and boundary conditions to be consistent with the actual situation, the prediction results often deviate greatly from the on-site monitoring data. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the above deficiencies in the prior art, the three-dimensional settlement prediction method induced by tunnel excavation provided by the present invention solves the problems that the existing tunnel excavation formation settlement prediction methods have low prediction accuracy and are all for one-dimensional and two-dimensional working conditions, lacking a three-dimensional settlement prediction method.

[0005] In order to achieve the above invention purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a three-dimensional settlement prediction method induced by tunnel excavation, including the following steps:

[0006] S1. Construct a single-tunnel two-dimensional settlement function according to the width of the surface soil settlement trough and the maximum surface settlement value;

[0007] S2. Construct a single-tunnel three-dimensional settlement function according to the single-tunnel two-dimensional settlement function and the longitudinal settlement function of the surface directly above the tunnel;

[0008] S3. Construct a double-tunnel three-dimensional settlement function and a connection passage three-dimensional settlement function respectively according to the single-tunnel three-dimensional settlement function;

[0009] S4. Calculate the settlement value induced by the excavation of the double-tunnel according to the double-tunnel three-dimensional settlement function;

[0010] S5. Calculate the settlement value induced by the excavation of the connection passage according to the connection passage three-dimensional settlement function;

[0011] S6. Add the settlement value induced by the excavation of the double - hole tunnel and the settlement value induced by the excavation of the connection passage to obtain the settlement value of the double - hole tunnel considering the connection passage in three - dimensional space.

[0012] Further, the single - hole two - dimensional settlement function in step S1 is:

[0013]

[0014] Among them, as Figure 2 shown, S(x, z) is the single - hole two - dimensional settlement function, S max is the maximum surface settlement value, x is the horizontal distance from the prediction point to the tunnel center, z is the depth of the prediction point, a is the parameter of different soil types, z 0 is the buried depth of the tunnel center, and i is the width of the surface soil settlement trough.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the above - mentioned scheme are as follows: The present invention introduces the depth position of the prediction point as a variable. While retaining the advantages of clear physical meaning, few parameters, effectiveness, and speed, it improves the generality of the formula, so that the application scope of the settlement prediction formula is not limited to surface settlement, and settlement prediction can also be made for deep soil layers.

[0016] Further, the surface longitudinal settlement function directly above the tunnel in step S2 is:

[0017] S(y) = S max {g(y - y s ) - g(y - y e )}

[0018]

[0019]

[0020] Among them, S(y) is the surface longitudinal settlement function directly above the tunnel, y is the longitudinal position of the tunnel, y s is the starting position of the tunnel in the longitudinal direction, y e is the ending position of the tunnel in the longitudinal direction, g(y - y s ) and g(y - y e ) are the first probability functions, k is the maximum slope of the surface longitudinal settlement, and η is the face displacement release rate.

[0021] Further, the single - hole three - dimensional settlement function in step S2 is:

[0022]

[0023] Among them, S d (x, y, z) is the single - hole three - dimensional settlement function.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: Existing settlement prediction formulas can only reflect the lateral settlement trough when the instantaneous settlement of the soil mass is basically stable after tunnel excavation, and cannot calculate the longitudinal settlement of the soil mass caused thereby. The present invention introduces the longitudinal position of the prediction point as a variable, and considers the longitudinal settlement of the soil mass during the settlement prediction process, improving the prediction accuracy of the formula.

[0025] Further, the three-dimensional settlement function of the double tunnels in step S3 is as follows:

[0026]

[0027]

[0028]

[0029] Among them, S s (x, y, z) is the three-dimensional settlement function of the double tunnels, S max,l is the maximum surface settlement value when the left main tunnel exists alone, s max,r is the maximum surface settlement value when the right main tunnel exists alone, gξ(y - y s ) and gξ(y - y e ) are the second probability functions, ξ takes l or r, l represents the left main tunnel, r represents the left main tunnel, L is the distance between the centerlines of the left and right main tunnels, i l is the surface settlement trough width of the left main tunnel, i r is the surface settlement trough width of the right main tunnel.

[0030] The beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: Existing settlement prediction formulas are mostly limited to single-tunnel tunnels, while the application of double-tunnel tunnels is increasing in actual projects. The present invention extends the single-tunnel tunnel settlement prediction method to double-tunnel tunnels through coordinate transformation and linear superposition, providing a method for the settlement prediction of double-tunnel tunnels.

[0031] Further, the three-dimensional settlement function of the cross passage in step S3 is as follows:

[0032]

[0033]

[0034]

[0035] Among them, S h (x, y, z) is the three-dimensional settlement function of the cross passage, S max,h is the maximum surface settlement value when the cross passage exists alone, i h is the surface settlement trough width of the cross passage, k is the maximum slope of the surface longitudinal settlement, g h(x + 0.5L) and g h (x - 0.5L) is the third probability function.

[0036] The beneficial effects of the above further solution are as follows:

[0037] Applying the three-dimensional settlement prediction method of the main tunnel to the connecting passage, considering the settlement generated by the connecting passage in the total settlement, further improving the prediction accuracy.

[0038] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: Based on the existing horizontal distance x, the longitudinal position y and depth z are introduced to calculate the settlement value of the double-hole tunnel considering the connecting passage from a three-dimensional perspective. During the settlement prediction process, the longitudinal settlement of the soil body and the settlement generated by the connecting passage are considered, improving the prediction accuracy of the formula. And the width i of the ground soil settlement trough is inversely deduced using the easily monitored ground surface settlement value, and then the difficult-to-monitor underground settlement value is predicted. The on-site monitoring data (the maximum slope k of the ground surface longitudinal settlement and the face displacement release rate η) of the excavated part of the tunnel are used to predict the ground surface and underground settlements of the unexcavated part ahead, realizing the prediction of the future settlement degree during excavation.

[0087] S6. Add the settlement value induced by the excavation of the double - hole tunnel and the settlement value induced by the excavation of the connecting passage to obtain the double - hole tunnel settlement value S of the three - dimensional connecting passage.

[0088] S = S s (x, y, z) + S h (x, y, z) In this embodiment, the excavation direction of the connecting passage is perpendicular to the double - hole tunnel. The direction of the horizontal distance x from a point on the ground surface to the tunnel center is the longitudinal direction of the connecting passage, and the direction of the longitudinal position y is the transverse direction of the connecting passage.
