Recent advances in the behaviour of tunnels under seismic loading
„In this presentation we will discuss some of the latest developments on the behaviour of tunnels under seismic loading. In particular we will be focussing on Sprayed Concrete Lining (SCL) tunnels (or NATM). The presentation will include results from field measurements in two tunnels in Santiago de Chile carried out within an international research project, shaking table tests and numerical modelling. After these new insights we will conclude the presentation with a research area outlook and other unanswered questions with significant implications in practise for design and tunnel operation.“
