Study on the Influence of Mud Properties on the Stability of Excavated Face of Slurry Shield and the Quality of Filter Cake Formation
2020
In the construction of subsea tunnels, the stability and control of the excavation surface are the main concerns of the engineering community. In this paper, the Xiamen Metro Line 2 is used as the study case. The filter cake formation of mud shields is experimentally studied, and the excavation surface is numerically simulated. It is found that the formation of filter cake does not require a large pressure difference, and can be formed under 0.06 MPa. With the increase of pressure, the quality of filter cake is further improved, and a small amount of seawater (volume ratio less than 3%) also has a significant effect on the viscosity of mud. Under different cross-section geological conditions, with the decrease of the support pressure of the excavation face, the vertical displacement and vertical (Y-direction) displacement of the excavation face dome gradually increase, the maximum longitudinal displacement is 9.7 mm, the maximum longitudinal displacement can reach 23.9 mm, and the growth trend is nonlinear. According to different stratum conditions, during the excavation of the tunnel, the plastic area of the excavation face is different.
