Jiang, Xi (author), Zhang, X. (author), Zhang, Xiao (author), Long, Luyuan (author), Bai, Yun (author), Huang, Baoshan (author)The development of modern cities has often led to increased traffic congestion and limited usable space. One effective solution to these problems is to construct roadway tunnels, which can expand urban space and alleviate traffic congestion. However, building large underpass tunnels in urban areas, especially in soft ground, presents...journal article 2024
