Abstract

Based on the existing monitoring data, this paper uses the matured data method to analyze, predict the long-term settlement of the subway shield tunnel, and comprehensively analyzes the long-term settlement of the subway shield tunnel in the saturated sand layer of Zhengzhou. Logical curve model, etc. is used to separately predict the long-term settlement of the Zhengzhou metro shield tunnel. Combining the prediction results to summarize the characteristics of the prediction model, a prediction model suitable for the long-term settlement of the subway shield tunnel in the sandy soil area represented by Zhengzhou is obtained, which can be used for the operation of the Zhengzhou subway tunnel. Management and similar engineering projects provide a certain reference basis.
