Abstract

To investigate the collapse mechanisms of diversion tunnels during construction under seismic loading, a coupled continuum‐discrete numerical simulation method was employed. Before seismic excitation, the initial support system was generally stable, with minor damage observed at the arch foot and arch crown (damage coefficient
