چکیده

this paper addresses the problem of quantifying the mechanical contribution of rockbolts installed systematically around tunnels (regularly spaced around the tunnel) excavated in rock masses. assuming that the mechanical contribution of grouted rockbolts is that of increasing internal pressure within a broken rock mass, a new procedure for computation of ground response curves for a circular tunnel excavated in strain softening material and then reinforced with systematically active grouted rockbolts is presented. in this work, the equation of the ground response curve for a tunnel which has been reinforced with passive grouted rockbolts is also derived. the proposed model allows one to take into account the effect of the distance of the bolted section to the tunnel face, the effect of increasing rockbolts spacing, the influence of increasing pretension load in calculating of the ground response curve, and the effect of increasing the cross-section area of rockbolts. the results show that decreasing rockbolts spacing increases the support system stiffness rather than preloading of them.

Vibration Behavior of Nanocomposite Plate Reinforced by Pristine and Defective Graphene Sheets; an Analytical Approach

Free vibration characteristics of polymer composite plates reinforced by graphene nanosheets employing the Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory were investigated. Theoretical formulations are derived based on Hamilton’s principle implementing linear orthotropic constitutive equations of lamina while the behavior of nanostructure points affected by all other nonlocal points is also taken into acco...

Crack analysis of an orthotropic circular bars reinforced by a magnetic coating under Saint-Venant torsion

This paper presents an analytical solution for an orthotropic circular cross section bar with a magnetic coating weakened by multiple arbitrary oriented cracks under Saint-Venant torsion by means of the distributed dislocation technique. At first, the solution of the orthotropic bar with a magnetic coating weakened by a Volterra-type screw dislocation is achieved with the aid of the finite Four...

Electromagnetic Wave Propagation in Circular Tunnels

The problem of guided wave propagation in a wave guide with imperfectly reflecting boundaries arises in several applications, such as propagation in mine tunnels and in screened surface wave guides. In recent years, many studies have been carried out on the propagation characteristic of radio waves in tunnels in UHF band [1-2]. From the theoretical point of view, tunnels can be regarded as holl...

Analytical Approach to Vibration Analysis Of the Wheel-rail contact

Wheel/rail contact simulation is one of the most complicated problems in the modeling of railway vehicles. The wheel/rail interaction plays a unique role in rail vehicle dynamics. In this paper, the dynamic response of the wheel on irregular rail track is analyzed with analytical approach using the method of Multiple Scales (MMS). The Hertzian contact theory is used to obtain the relationshi...

Moving Load Analysis of Submerged Floating Tunnels

The concept of floating submerged tunnels becomes increasingly attractive idea to cross the straits. The structural solution in these bridges includes buoyancy force on tunnel body plus tension in mooring tethers. This paper investigates the effect of submergence on the dynamic response of submerged floating tunnels due to moving load. The inertial effect of the fluid on the submerged structure...
