摘要
In this paper, an analytical method, for calculating seepage induced stresses and displacements in underwater lined circular pressure tunnels, is developed on the basis of a generalized effective stress law. The problem is considered as axisymmetric, and the lining and rock mass are assumed to be elastic, homogeneous and isotropic. The solution accounts for the seepage forces with the steady-state flow and hydro-mechanical pressures between adjacent zones. The proposed method can be applied for the analysis and design of pressure tunnels with concrete lining, prestressed concrete lining, grouted rock mass, as well as for the analysis of pressure tunnels considering the effects of the surrounding fractured or damaged zone. Illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, and also to examine the effect of seepage forces on stability of pressure tunnels. It is concluded that, the classic solutions (Lame's solution), that is based on considering the internal pressure as a mechanical load applied to the tunnel surface, is not applicable to pervious media and results in unsafe designs.
