Mechanical Behavior of Double-Arch Tunnels under the Effect of Voids on the Top of the Middle Wall
Voids behind linings may affect the safety and performance of structures. In this paper, the applicability of the extended finite element method for simulating crack propagation was verified firstly through comparisons between numerical simulations and model tests. Moreover, the mechanical behavior...
