Upper bound analysis of longitudinally inclined EPB shield tunnel face stability in dense sand strata

TL;DR: Based on the numerical results of soil failure pattern in front of tunnel face, a novel two-dimensional (2D) failure mechanism is conceived following the upper bound theorem in this article , where the failure zone consists of an upper loosen zone, an arc-shaped shear band, and a triangular rigid body, which can calculate the active limit face support pressure.

The strength and dilatancy of sands

Malcolm D. Bolton
- 01 Mar 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the strength and dilatancy of 17 sands in axisymmetric or plane strain at different densities and confining pressures are collated, and the critical state angle of shearing resistance of soil which is shearing at constant volume is determined experimentally within a margin of about 1°, being roughly 33° for quartz and 40° for feldspar.

Mechanised Shield Tunnelling

TL;DR: In this article, the development potential of the mechanised shield tunnelling method is far greater than that of the shotcrete method and other traditional tunnel construction because it is a safer, more effective method of tunnel construction.
