TL;DR: A summary of the current state of seismic analysis and design for underground structures can be found in this paper, where the authors discuss special design issues, including the design of tunnel segment joints and joints between tunnels and portal structures.

Journal Article•
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the simulation of a major power outage in Western North America on August 10, 1996 using a transient stability program, which is based on the WSCC dynamic database.
788 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic assessment of damage in the mountain tunnels in Taiwan after the Chi-Chi earthquake was carried out and the results showed that the degree of damage is associated with the geological condition and structural arrangement of the tunnel.
463 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the practical application of the Convergence-Confinement Method of tunnel design to rock-masses that satisfy the Hoek-Brown failure criterion.
454 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that tunnel deformation is mainly due to urbanisation-induced land subsidence in Shanghai, and the magnitude of tunnel settlement is correlated to sublayer settlement rather than ground surface settlement.
