[0002] The long-distance proximity of overlapping shield tunnels to an operating subway tunnel is a very complex engineering problem. During the engineering implementation process, a practical method is needed to predict the deformation amount of the operating subway tunnel caused by the construction of the overlapping tunnels, so as to adjust the construction parameters in a timely manner and ensure the safety of the operating subway. Existing research mainly focuses on the soil deformation caused by shield construction, including empirical methods (Peck formula and improved formulas), theoretical calculation methods, numerical calculation methods, experimental methods, field measurement methods, etc., but there is no deformation prediction method for operating subway tunnels. The deficiencies of existing research are as follows: Firstly, the Peck formula is an empirical formula that can only calculate the surface settlement and cannot calculate the deep soil displacement; Secondly, most of the existing relevant theoretical formulas are extremely complex and cannot calculate the deep soil displacement; Thirdly, the numerical method requires re-modeling and calculation for each construction step, and the workload and calculation amount are extremely large. In reality, no relevant project continuously uses it for prediction; Fourthly, the experimental method targets few working conditions, costs a high amount of money, and takes a long time, and cannot meet the engineering needs; Fifthly, the field measurement method cannot predict in advance. It takes emergency measures afterwards and cannot meet the purpose of advance prediction.
