Effect of pore water pressure on tunnel support during static and seismic loading

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical solution for a deep tunnel in a saturated poroelastic ground has been obtained for static and seismic loading, where linear elasticity of the liner and ground, and plane strain conditions at any cross-section of the tunnel are assumed.

Damage observation and assessment of the Longxi tunnel during the Wenchuan earthquake

TL;DR: In this paper, a full-dimensional dynamic finite element model of the tunnel and rock system is used to assess the seismic damage observed in the tunnel, and to evaluate the influence of the longitudinal and vertical motions on the seismic response.

Computer-Aided Structural Engineering (CASE) Project: Decision Logic Table Formulation of ACI (American Concrete Institute) 318-77 Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete for Automated Constraint Processing. Volume 2.

TL;DR: In this article, an automated constraint process based on an interconnected system of Decision Logic Tables (DLT) is presented. But the DLT method can be applied to identify requirements of a given design as well as to check the design against applicable requirements.
