Abstrakt

Nowadays, there is no precedent for building a high-speed railway in diatomite area. Due to the complex structure and poor mechanical properties of diatomite as well as the lack of relevant engineering experience, more attention has been paid to the proper constitutive model of the tunnel in diatomite layer using the numerical calculation method, while the traditional Elastoplastic calculation model is the most used yet. Therefore, relying on the Feifengshan tunnel, through FLAC3D software as well as the on-site monitoring, the analysis of the settlement law about tunnelling in diatomite stratum is carried out based on different constitutive models. The research results show that diatomite has obvious strain-softening characteristics. The calculated surface settlement and vault settlement based on the Strain Softening model was greater than that based on the Mohr Coulomb model. When compared with the on-site monitoring data, it was found that the Strain Softening model would more accurately show the settlement law of the tunnel in diatomite and has better applicability in the diatomite area. The above-mentioned research results may provide some references for the construction and design of tunnels in similar strata in the future.
