Abstract:

Tunnel lining crack is the most common disease and also the manifestation of other diseases, which widely exists in plain concrete lining structure. Proper evaluation and classification of engineering conditions directly relate to operation safety. Particle flow code (PFC) calculation software is applied in this study, and the simulation reliability is verified by using the laboratory axial compression test and 1 : 10 model experiment to calibrate the calculation parameters. Parameter analysis is carried out focusing on the load parameters, structural parameters, dimension, and direction which affect the crack diseases. Based on that, an evaluation index system represented by tunnel buried depth ( H ), crack position ( P ), crack length ( L ), crack width ( W ), crack depth ( D ), and crack direction ( A ) is put forward. The training data of the back propagation (BP) neural network which takes load-bearing safety and crack stability as the evaluation criteria are obtained. An expert system is introduced into the BP neural network for correction of prediction results, realizing classified dynamic optimization of complex engineering conditions. The results of this study can be used to judge the safety state of cracked lining structure and provide guidance to the prevention and control of crack diseases, which is significant to ensure the safety of tunnel operation.
