Summary: | This study aims to investigate the characteristics of adaptability to stratum for thrust system in tunneling machines in composite stratum. Initially, variation coefficient thrust model has been constructed on the basis of a mechanical model. By analyzing the variation coefficient thrust model, the variation coefficient surface can be discovered. Second, by analyzing the relationship between spaces of variation coefficient surface and adaptability to compound ground, the variation coefficient surface family which indicates the adaptive ability to stratum conditions for pushing system has been discovered. Eventually, applying variation coefficient adaptability model to the driving system of shield machine in engineering applications, adaptability for two layouts with the same number of hydraulic cylinders in thrust system has been discussed in detail through comparison of numerical analysis and simulation in ADAMS. The results could provide theoretical foundation and support for the design of an adaptability thrust system under composite stratum.
