Assessing Failure Risk of Existing Metro Stations During Unilateral Large-Scale Excavation: An Experimental and FE Perspective
Introduction Urban rail systems are lifelines in modern cities, yet their safety can be challenged when nearby large-scale excavations unfold. This article synthesizes experimental insights and finite element (FE) analyses to understand the failure risk of existing metro stations during unilateral, large-scale excavation. Drawing on established research in soil-structure interaction and case studies from major…

Experimental Insights into the Failure Risk of Existing Metro Stations Under Unilateral Large-Scale Excavation
Introduction Urban metros are vital arteries of modern cities, but their long-term performance can be challenged by large-scale ground works nearby. A growing body of research examines how unilateral excavation—where the soil is removed on one side of an underground structure—affects the stability and serviceability of adjacent metro stations. This article synthesizes experimental findings and…
