<p>The research presented in this thesis focuses on tunnel&ndash;building interaction, and more specifically on buildings with shallow foundations. </p> <p>The focus of this work is the effect of tunnelling on concrete framed buildings. The research deals ...
<p>In order to study the effects of a seismically induced tunnel&ndash; ground interaction, two-dimensional numerical analyses are performed using the sofware ANSYS. The study employs a coupled beam&ndash;spring model subjected to earthquake loading that is ...
