Water spewing and muck plugging often occur during earth pressure balance (EPB) shield machines tunnelling in water-rich sandy strata, even though the conventional foam has been employed to condition sandy soils. In this study, a novel thickened foaming agent suitable for EPB ...

The material point method (MPM) has been gaining increasing popularity as an appropriate approach to the solution of coupled hydro-mechanical problems involving large deformation. In this paper, we survey the current state-of-the-art in the MPM simulation of hydro-mechanical b ...
