Optimization Effects of Load Reduction for Earth Pressure on High-Filled Cut-and-Cover Tunnels Using the Discrete Element Method by Bentian Yu, Junying Xia, Sheng Li, Liangliang Zhao

“…However, due to higher backfill soil, a high earth pressure is generated, which affects the safety of HFCCTs. To this end, using the discrete element method (DEM), three load reduction measures were introduced to evaluate HFCCT: the cross section types of HFCCT; the combination of optimized cross section type with load reduction using expanded polystyrene (EPS); and the combination of optimized cross section type with load reduction using the EPS and concrete wedge (CW). …”
