Optimization Effects of Load Reduction for Earth Pressure on High-Filled Cut-and-Cover Tunnels Using the Discrete Element Method

In the Northwestern part of Loess Plateau of China, the ravine and valley are numerous; therefore, high-filled cut-and-cover tunnels (HFCCTs) play a major role in meeting traffic needs and creating a great deal of usable land. However, due to higher backfill soil, a high earth pressure is generated,...
