Abstract
The tunnel lining segments are assumed to be rigid, and the tensile, compression, shear, and bending properties of the joints are considered. A simplified calculation method for the dynamic response of the structure under the ground shock is proposed, and its correctness is verified by comparing it with results from the finite element method. Using this method, the dynamic response of a subway tunnel lining is calculated, the change in joint force is studied, and the influence of the angle between the load and the center of the minimum segment and the wavelength–diameter ratio on the peak joint force is examined. The results indicate that under the ground shock, shallow tunnel lining is in the impulsive regime, and the force of segment joints is mainly compressed. As the wavelength–diameter ratio increases, the peak values of the lining top displacement and vertical deformation increase significantly, and the proportion of displacement and deformation caused by the inertial force gradually decreases. Sine and cosine functions can be used to preliminarily judge if the bending moment and radial force of the joint are too large or too small, so that the resistance of the lining to ground shock can be improved to a certain extent by setting the positions of lining joints reasonably.
