2D dynamic response of unlined and lined tunnels in poroelastic soil to harmonic body waves.

The problem of harmonic wave diffraction by tunnels in an infinite poroelastic saturated soil obeying Biot's theory is studied numerically under conditions of plane strain and the effect of poroelasticity on the response is assessed through some parametric studies. The method is based on the th...
