Abstract:
High external water pressure poses significant challenges to the construction of long-distance water diversion tunnels under complex geological conditions. This study developed a large-scale geomechanics model to explore the effects of tunnel depth, water head, and drained conditions on external water pressure, focusing on the Songlin Tunnel in the Central Yunnan Water Diversion Project. The results show that external water pressure is most affected by water head and tunnel depth, particularly under undrained conditions. At water heads over 160 m, the external water pressure significantly decr

Abstract:
The article discusses the effects of soil mass movement on deep metro main line tunnels. The study is based on the data obtained as part of a field survey of a tunnel section that was exposed to a non-routine event. Displacements of the soil mass surrounding the tunnel during its operation may occur due to disturbance of the groundwater mode caused by abundant water inflow into the tunnel. Solution cavities, especially those filled with water, can also cause deformation of the tunnels during operation, resulting in water inflow into the tunnel. If these cavities are filled with loose sediments

Abstract:
Oscillating water tunnels are experimental facilities commonly used in coastal engineering research. They are intended to reproduce near-bed hydrodynamic and sediment transport phenomena at a realistic scale. In an oscillating water tunnel, a piston generates an oscillatory motion that propagates almost instantaneously to the whole tunnel; consequently, flow is uniform along the tunnel, unlike the propagating wave motion in the sea or in a wave flume. This results in subtle differences between the boundary-layer hydrodynamics of an oscillating water tunnel and of a propagating wave, which may

The presence of excessive background noise in hydrodynamic noise experiments conducted in circulating water tunnels can significantly impact the accuracy and reliability of experimental test results. To address this issue, it is crucial to evaluate and optimize the background noise during the design stage.

Utilizing the finite element method, we analyze the flow noise and flow-excited noise resulting from wall pressure pulses in the circulating water tunnel.

Abstract:
With the increasing operation time of tunnels, the drainage system cannot fulfil its proper function as a result of the deterioration of traditional waterproof and drainage systems (TWDS), such as the blockage of drainage blind pipes and the failure of drainage boards. Therefore, the lining bears a high water pressure and even causes disasters such as tunnel leakage and lining cracking. An effective solution to mitigate these issues is to adjust the tunnel drainage scheme. In view of this, a composite waterproof and drainage system (CWDS) is proposed in this paper.

Field experiments were conducted during 1997, 1998, and 1999 to determine effects of 10 combinations of mulched minitunnel and thermal water tube on air, soil, and water-tube temperatures and on vegetative growth of `Earligold' netted muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. Reticulatus Group) within the tunnels. Use of mulched minitunnels significantly increased air, soil and water temperatures during the preanthesis phase in all years compared with control treatments. Inclusion of water tubes and venting the tunnels decreased air temperature fluctuations in the tunnels. During the first 10 to 15 days afte

Abstract:
Rock failure is the root cause of geological disasters such as slope failure, civil tunnel collapse, and water inrush in roadways and mines. Accurate and effective monitoring of the loaded rock failure process can provide reliable precursor information for water inrushes in underground engineering structures such as in mines, civil tunnels, and subways. The water inrush may affect the safe and efficient execution of these engineering structures. Therefore, it is essential to predict the water inrush effectively. In this paper, the water inrush process of the roadway was simulated by laboratory

The process of dust transportation is widespread, leading to the formation of regions such as the Loess Plateau. In order to understand the mechanisms of dust particle transportation, this study conducted wind tunnel experiments to simulate natural wind-driven dust transport processes. Theoretical derivations were carried out to establish the relationship between particle size and transportation distance, which was then validated through numerical simulations. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) wind tunnel experiments, theoretical derivations, and numerical simulations yielded consisten

Abstract Water inrush during tunnel excavation severally threatens the mining safety as blind water-bearing structures may develop in front of the working face. The transient electromagnetic method (TEM) has been widely applied in the advanced detection of tunnel water-bearing structures. However, the metal interference of both supports and tools in the tunnel has become a bottleneck that reduces the forecast accuracy of this method. In this paper, we analyse the effect of metal interference on TEM data and propose a novel set of an observation and correction method under metal interference ba

In 2014–2015 at the experimental station of the University of Agriculture in Kraków, situated in Mydlniki near Kraków, Poland, experiments with intensive crop rotation in a high tunnel were conducted. The objectives concerned microclimatic zones in the tunnel and the yield and quality of butterhead lettuce (spring), cucumber (summer), and butterhead lettuce (autumn). Besides the properties of the soil in the high tunnel, a crucial role was played by microclimatic factors. The measurements showed variations in solar radiation, temperature and air humidity depending on the zone in the tunnel and

Further, they often break and deform owing to formation pressure.

Abstract. In this study, we present the results of a wind-tunnel experiment on dust deposition. A new method is proposed to derive dust deposition velocity from the PDA (Particle Dynamics Analysis) particle-velocity and particle-size measurements. This method has the advantage that the motions of individual dust particles are directly observed and all relevant data for computing dust deposition velocity is collected using a single instrument, and therefore the measurement uncertainties are reduced. The method is used in the wind-tunnel experiment to measure the dust deposition velocities for d
