ON THE ANALYSIS OF A TUNNEL LINING OF OVAL CROSS-SECTION BY THE VARIATION METHOD
Abstract
A tunnel support (cylindrical shell) of oval cross-section, whose thickness and radius vary stepwise, is analyzed using the variational method. A discontinuous solution of the governing differential equation is constructed based on the theory developed by Sh. E. Mikeladze.
