AI Technical Summary
Existing TBM safety assessment methods lack a dynamic quantitative assessment system, resulting in a lag in risk response in high-stress mixed rock tunnels. This is especially true in geological conditions with interbedded granite and schist and heterogeneous soft and hard rocks, where sudden changes in cutterhead stress, frequent jamming, and low construction efficiency occur.
An evaluation index system including TBM parameters, geological parameters, and disaster risk is constructed. The weights are determined by the analytic hierarchy process and the entropy weight method. Real-time safety level assessment is carried out by combining the support vector machine model. Quantitative evaluation is achieved by using data acquisition, preprocessing, and analysis modules.
It enables real-time and accurate assessment of the safety level of TBM excavation in mixed rock tunnels, reducing downtime caused by geological risks and improving construction efficiency and safety.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tunnel excavation technology, and in particular to a method and system for quantitatively evaluating the safety level of TBM excavation in mixed rock tunnels. Background Technology
[0002] TBMs (Tunnel Boring Machines) are highly mechanized tunnel excavation machines, offering significant advantages, particularly in deep-buried, long-distance, and large-diameter tunnel projects. They achieve rapid excavation through continuous mechanized operation, while shield structures and synchronous support significantly enhance construction safety. Laser guidance systems ensure tunnel forming accuracy, and blasting vibrations, noise, and ecological damage are reduced, significantly improving the efficiency and quality of underground tunnel construction.
[0003] As the scale of TBM construction continues to expand, the safety risks faced by TBM construction are becoming increasingly prominent. In high-stress mixed rock tunnels, TBM excavation mainly faces prominent problems such as complex geological conditions, high ground stress hazards, and low construction efficiency. Mixed rock in deeply buried tunnels (such as interbedded granite and schist, and heterogeneous soft and hard rocks) causes abrupt changes in cutterhead stress, abnormal cutter wear, and frequent jamming. Under high ground stress conditions, it is prone to rock bursts, collapses, and TBM jamming. Downtime due to geological risks accounts for as much as 30% to 50% of the total downtime, seriously restricting the construction period.
[0004] Existing TBM safety assessment methods mostly rely on empirical formulas or single indicators (such as Q system, RMR classification), lacking a dynamic quantitative assessment system that integrates geological, machine, and construction parameters, resulting in a lag in risk response.

[0039] This invention addresses the problem of delayed risk response in existing TBM safety assessments by providing a quantitative evaluation method for the safety level of TBM excavation in mixed rock tunnels, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0040] S1. Construct an evaluation index system that includes TBM parameters, geological parameters, and disaster risks.
[0041] Specifically, the TBM parameters include cutterhead thrust, cutterhead torque, cutterhead rotation speed, cutterhead tunneling speed, and cutterhead opening ratio; the geological parameters include uniaxial compressive strength, integrity coefficient, abrasion resistance index, ground stress level, and tunnel depth; and the disaster risks include fault fracture zones, soft rock jamming deformation, composite strata, sudden water inrush, and surface subsidence. The evaluation index system is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0042] S2. Subjective weights are determined by constructing an expert judgment matrix using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and objective weights are obtained by analyzing the dispersion of monitoring data using the entropy weight method. The combined weights of the indicators are then determined based on the subjective and objective weights.
[0043] Specifically, the subjective weights are determined by constructing an expert judgment matrix using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), which includes the following steps:
[0044] S21. Based on the evaluation index system, a hierarchical structure is created; the hierarchy includes a target layer, a criterion layer, and an index layer. The target layer includes the TBM tunneling safety level; the criterion layer includes TBM parameters, geological parameters, and disaster risks; and the index layer includes 15 indicators, corresponding to TBM parameters, geological parameters, and disaster risks, such as cutterhead thrust, cutterhead torque, cutterhead rotation speed, cutterhead tunneling speed, cutterhead opening ratio, uniaxial compressive strength, integrity coefficient, wear resistance index, ground stress level, tunnel depth, fault fracture zone, soft rock jamming deformation, composite strata, sudden water inrush, and surface subsidence, which correspond to TBM parameters, geological parameters, and disaster risks.
[0045] S22. Construct the judgment matrix for each layer and verify the accuracy of the judgment matrix through consistency.
[0046] Specifically, if the consistency index ratio is less than 0.1, the judgment matrix is considered reasonable; if the consistency index ratio is not less than 0.1, the judgment matrix is re-assigned until the consistency verification is passed. The formula for calculating the consistency index ratio is: , ,in, This indicates the consistency index ratio. Indicators of consistency This represents the random consistency index. This represents the largest eigenvalue of the judgment matrix. This indicates the order of the judgment matrix.
[0047] S23. Use the eigenvector method to solve the judgment matrix to obtain the weight of this layer relative to the previous layer.
[0048] For example, the judgment matrix of the criterion layer relative to the target layer that passes the consistency verification is: The largest eigenvalue Corresponding feature vector: [0.105, 0.258, 0.637]; CR=0.033<0.1 (verified), final weight results: TBM parameter: 0.105; geological parameter: 0.258; disaster risk: 0.637.

[0051] S202. Standardize the sample indicator values. Specifically, data standardization includes eliminating the influence of order of magnitude and normalizing the indicator values to a positive direction.
[0052] S203. Based on the standardized sample index values, calculate the entropy weight of the index. The calculation formula is as follows: ,in This represents the entropy weight of the j-th index. , , , The first standardization The j-th index value of a sample.
[0053] The formula used to determine the combined weight of the indicators based on subjective and objective weights is as follows: ,in, Indicates the portfolio weight. This represents the weight of the j-th index obtained by the analytic hierarchy process relative to the previous level. This represents the entropy weight of the j-th index.
[0054] S3. Real-time acquisition of geological parameters, TBM operating parameters, and environmental data, followed by standardization processing to construct feature vectors.
[0055] Specifically, the standardization process includes using wavelet transform to eliminate noise interference.
[0056] S4. Use combined weights to weight the feature vectors to obtain the input feature vectors, and use the support vector machine to evaluate the model and output the security level.
[0057] Specifically, when a rockburst precursor is detected, i.e. a stress change exceeding 30%, the combined weight of the ground stress level is increased by 20% to 30%. When large deformation of soft rock is detected, i.e. a convergence rate greater than 2 mm / h, the combined weight of soft rock jamming deformation is increased by 20% to 30%. This is to achieve the purpose of dynamically adjusting the combined weight and ensure the accuracy of the assessment under special circumstances.
[0058] The training process of a support vector machine evaluation model includes the following steps:
[0059] S41. Use the input feature vector and the corresponding evaluation results as sample data;
[0060] S42. Select the Gaussian kernel function and set the penalty factor to 1.5 and the kernel parameter to 0.8;
[0061] S43. Use sample data to train the model and obtain the support vector machine evaluation model.
[0062] The regression function for the support vector machine evaluation model is: ,in, Indicates the first The first Lagrange multiplier of each sample data point Indicates the first The second Lagrange multiplier of each sample data, Indicates the first The input feature vector in each sample data, This represents the total number of sample data. Indicates a bias value. This represents the independent variable of the regression function. This represents the dependent variable in the regression function. and The solution formula is as follows:

Indicates the first Evaluation results of individual sample data Indicates the first The input feature vector in each sample data, Indicates insensitivity to parameters. Indicates the first The first Lagrange multiplier of each sample data point Indicates the first The second Lagrange multiplier of each sample data, Indicates the first The input feature vector of each sample data, This represents the penalty factor.
[0066] This invention also provides a quantitative evaluation system for the safety level of TBM tunneling in mixed rock tunnels, realizing the quantitative evaluation method for the safety level of TBM tunneling in mixed rock tunnels as described above. The system includes a data acquisition module, a data preprocessing module, a combined weighting module, and an analysis and processing module. The data acquisition module is used to collect geological parameters, TBM operating parameters, and environmental data in real time. The data preprocessing module is used to standardize the real-time collected geological parameters, TBM operating parameters, and environmental data, construct feature vectors, and use combined weights to weight the feature vectors to obtain input feature vectors. The combined weighting module is used to construct an expert judgment matrix using the analytic hierarchy process to determine subjective weights, analyze the dispersion of monitoring data using the entropy weighting method to obtain objective weights, and determine the combined weights of the indicators based on the subjective and objective weights. The analysis and processing module outputs the safety level based on the input feature vectors using a support vector machine evaluation model.
[0067] Specifically, the security levels can be divided into five categories, as shown in Table 1.
[0068] Table 1 Safety Level Table
[0069]
[0070] Safety levels can be dynamically marked with five color codes to indicate risk areas, from green (Level I) to red (Level V). When a Level III risk is detected, a multimodal alarm is triggered, such as a 120dB directional sound wave and an LED strobe array. Simultaneously, handling suggestions are pushed to the responsible person's mobile device, such as immediately reducing the cutterhead vibration speed to 2.5 rpm if it exceeds the threshold by 15%. When a Level IV risk is detected, a support plan is automatically generated from the case library, along with construction drawings with three-dimensional coordinates. Support plans may include adding W-shaped steel strips at the arch foot, with spacing increased to 0.5m. When a Level V risk is detected, a shutdown command is directly sent to the TBM main control system with a response time of less than 200ms, and the emergency response plan is activated. All handling records are automatically archived, forming a closed-loop digital twin archive.
