Numerical simulation is one of main methods for tunnel surrounding rock stability analysis. By now, there hasn’t be unanimous view on that what kind of yield criterion is adopted for different surrounding rock class and different buried depth. Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion is always adopted abroad, Drucker-Prager yield criterion is always adopted in China, moreover, the principles are different when adopting D-P yield criterion at home and abroad. Based on introducing the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion and D-P yield criterions, this paper uses the M-C exterior angle point of circle criteria, which is popular in the international arena for the D-P yield criterion, and finds parameters of geotechnical material for D-P yield criterions through the parameter transformation. Combining with 3D elastic-plastic finite element simulation of the tunnel construction process, with the tunnel buried by soft and weak surrounding rock (V class) at shallow (15m) and deep (550m), this paper analyzes the impact of the M-C and D-P yield criterions on surrounding rock’s displacement, stress, strain effects, and proposes the appropriate yield criterion for the simulation of shallow and deep soft and weak rock tunnel construction and for tunnel surrounding rock stability analysis.

In order to analyze the different construction program under the tunnel surrounding rock stress, strain and plastic zone changes, we take water tunnel group of nuclear power plant as basic project and the application of software FLACIS3D numerical simulation.The results show that: During the tunnel excavation and support group process, the different rock tunnel construction program can produce different stress, displacement and plastic zone extended range of distribution and other aspects.To interval-type excavation program,although previously disturbing effect of the excavation of the tunnel construction and tunnel excavation of rock, it can generate less impact on the stability of surrounding rock. For the latter excavation of the tunnel, the tunnel project area affected by the first digging,the stress can be released, the stability of the first excavation of the tunnel effect is also small.Comparing to sequential and parallel program-type excavation program, the use of interval-style group of rock tunnel excavation will help stabilize the body.

Suspension in tunnel construction usually cause tunnel callapse in weak ground if the suspension time is long. Dongkeling tunnel on Guizhou-Guangxi line being as the engineering background, the indoor rheological experiment and back analysis were performed to obtain the rheological model and parameters of the surrounding rock, and the 3D viscoelasto-plastic calculation model was established to find the evolving rules of deformation at critical locations under two different water contents. It was found that the primary support has little effect on rheology of tunnel work face but on the cross section, and decreasing the water content of the surrounding rock to medium or low saturation level favors the tunnel stabillity greatly for water abundent tunnels.

The initial stress of rock is a basic parameter, which can be used for surrounding rock stability analysis, exploitation and support design. By utilizing stress relief method of hollow inclusion with its characters of high precision and obtaining three dimensional stress at one time, we have measured three dimensional stress magnitude and direction in north wing roadway (-850m) and 710 open-off cut (-1000m), respectively. The results show that the horizontal tectonic stress is obvious in this coal area.

Based on the engineering background of Dongkeling tunnel of Guizhou-Guangzhou high-speed rail, construction process in soft surrounding rock is simulated by using finite difference software——FLAC according to large-deformation characteristics in water-rich and weathering altered granite weak surrounding rock. Several aspects, such as vault settlement, invert uplift, clearance convergence, surface settlement, the maximum and minimum principal stress of the initial support and plastic zone of surrounding rock, are analyzed to determine the tunnel stability with different construction methods.

The ideal point method is a kind of multiple-goal decision analysis method, the basic idea is to construct the ideal and anti-ideal solution of multi attribute problem, with degree that near ideal solution and away from the anti-ideal solution as the basis to judge each evaluation object. Based on the basic principle of ideal point method, and comprehensive consideration of the actual geological conditions of Qingdao metro, we selected rock compressive strength, integrity coefficient, structure surface behavior, groundwater and softening coefficient as the evaluation factors of surrounding rock stability, and used the rough set theory to determine the index weight. At last, established the evaluate model for the surrounding rock stability of metro based on the rough set efficacy coefficient method. The research show that the stability analysis results are consistent with the actual excavation, so using rough set efficacy coefficient method to analysis surrounding rock stability of Qingdao Metro is feasible, which provides a new idea for the stability analysis of surrounding rock.

Measurement of the loose zone of tunnel surrounding rock is of great significance in the determination of its support measures and stability analysis. By identifying the loose zone, the effective measures can be adopted to ensure a safe tunnel construction. The ultrasonic test is conducted to the TBM construction of Zhongtianshan Tunnel to specify the disturbance range of the TBM construction on the surrounding rock and the anchoring lengths of bolts.

Backed up by Dayoushan loess tunnel of Xining in Qinghai province, the displacements of vault settlement, peripheral convergence, surface deformation and post-construction settlement caused by tunnel construction are numerically simulated and analyzed. First, 2-D elastic-plastic model is founded to simulate the tunnel excavation process with up and down steps method. Second, considering the rheological characteristics of loess, 2-D visco-elastic-plastic constitutive model is founded to simulate the creep deformation of rock displacement characteristics. Finally, combined with the serious collapsible feature of loess foundation in supported project, the post-construction settlements under different conditions are simulated to obtain the settlement values of tunnel vault and bottom. The results can explain the deformation laws of tunnel displacement characteristics reasonably and show the importance of foundation reinforcement measures for loess tunnel.

Analyzing and Evaluating the stability of the surrounding rock is an indispensable and important part in the tunnel design. In this paper, the surrounding rock stability of Danba hydropower station diversion tunnel is dealt with, FLAC3Dsoftware is used for stability analysis. Selecting three different cross sections for calculation models, comparing with the displacement and principal stress and the plastic zone which calculated by FLAC3D, we can evaluate their stability and get the best diversion tunnel design.
