Assessment of the Posttunneling Safety Factor of Piles under Drained Soil Conditions (2020)
Journal Article
Marshall, A. M., Franza, A., & Jacobsz, S. W. (2020). Assessment of the Posttunneling Safety Factor of Piles under Drained Soil Conditions. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 146(9), Article 04020097. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29GT.1943-5606.0002348

The need to tunnel closely beneath piles is increasing due to the development of urban areas. This poses a risk to the stability and serviceability of overlying structures (e.g., buildings, piers, and piled embankments). The impact of tunneling on pi...

Centrifuge and Real-Time Hybrid Testing of Tunneling beneath Piles and Piled Buildings (2018)
Journal Article
Andrea, F., & Alec M., M. (2019). Centrifuge and Real-Time Hybrid Testing of Tunneling beneath Piles and Piled Buildings. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 145(3), Article 04018110. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29GT.1943-5606.0002003

Tunnels are constructed increasingly close to existing buried structures, including pile foundations. This poses a serious concern, especially for tunnels built beneath piles. Current understanding of the global tunnel-soil-pile-building interaction... Read More about Centrifuge and Real-Time Hybrid Testing of Tunneling beneath Piles and Piled Buildings.

A coupled thermal-mechanical numerical model of underground coal gasification (UCG) including spontaneous coal combustion and its effects (2018)
Journal Article
Ekneligoda, T., & Marshall, A. (2018). A coupled thermal-mechanical numerical model of underground coal gasification (UCG) including spontaneous coal combustion and its effects. International Journal of Coal Geology, 199, 31-38. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coal.2018.09.015

Underground coal gasification (UCG) is a promising option for extracting energy from coal in unworked or hard to access areas of the subsurface. From a geotechnical perspective, UCG involves various complex phenomena resulting from the elevated tempe...

Design oriented linear-equivalent approach for evaluating the effect of tunneling on pipelines (2015)
Journal Article
Klar, A., Elkayam, I., & Marshall, A. (2016). Design oriented linear-equivalent approach for evaluating the effect of tunneling on pipelines. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 142(1), Article 04015062. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29GT.1943-5606.0001376

The process of tunneling is associated with ground movements which may lead to stressing of nearby existing buried infrastructure, and potentially poses a risk of damage. The need for an effective evaluation method of the potential risk increases wit... Read More about Design oriented linear-equivalent approach for evaluating the effect of tunneling on pipelines.

An analytical study of tunnel-pile interaction (2014)
Journal Article
Marshall, A., & Haji, T. (2015). An analytical study of tunnel-pile interaction. Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology, 45, (43-51). doi:10.1016/j.tust.2014.09.001. ISSN 0886-7798

Tunnelling under the foundations of structures is becoming more common because of the lack of available space for infrastructure, both above and below ground. The interaction between newly constructed tunnels and existing piled foundations is an impo... Read More about An analytical study of tunnel-pile interaction.
