Overview of current progress in the field of seismic regulations for the design of tunnel structures revealed that, despite significant progress in research work on seismic analysis of tunnels over the past few decades, however, a deficiency of systematic and precisely defined rules for the seismic design of tunnels still exists even in the most de...

In this paper, an analysis of the phase construction of a tunnel with support in static and seismic conditions is made. The PLAXIS 2D software package was used for the problem's numerical modelling. A parametric analysis of the excavation using the deconfinement method (1-ß) was made on an actual tunnel with support in the excavation phase an...

In many countries, reinforced concrete (RC) frames are widely utilized as the primary building structure. The infill is typically composed of traditional masonry (brick elements connected with mortar), commonly without isolation from the frame. It is noted that in engineering practice, seismic force calculations for RC frame buildings are often con...
