Effects of Spatially Varying Seismic Ground Motions and Incident Angles on Behavior of Long Tunnels

Seismic behavior of long circle tunnels is significantly influenced by the nature of input motion. This study, based on the 3D finite-element method (FEM), evaluates the effects of spatially varying seismic ground motions and uniform input seismic ground motions and their incident angles on the diam...
