Primjena metode konačnih elemenata za 2D i 3D analize slijeganja izazvanih izgradnjom tunela

Results of a series of 3D and 2D analyses of open-face tunnelling in marly-clayey deposits are presented in the paper. A parametric study was performed to investigate the influence of initial stress state, soil deformability, shear strength parameters, and soil anisotropy, on settlement prediction. Comparison of 2D and 3D results shows that the settlement trough predicted by 2D analysis agrees well with 3D results when an appropriate amount of unloading prior to lining installation is adopted. It is demonstrated that the load reduction factor significantly depends on shear strength parameters of soil.
