摘要
The areas where tunnels crossing faults are especially susceptible to seismic damage. Local site effects associated with fault site notably contribute to the unfavourable impact on the seismic behaviour of tunnels. In this study, large-scale shaking table tests were conducted to investigate the fault site effect and its impact on the seismic response of tunnels. Real earthquake records, synthetic seismic wave, and sinusoidal waves were selected as input motions, excited in both transverse and longitudinal directions of the tunnel. The local site effect of the fault site was evaluated by time-frequency analysis. The test results indicate that the acceleration response within the fault is significantly greater than those on both sides, regardless of excitation direction. Dynamic characteristics of different regions of the fault site exhibit distinct variations under different excitation directions, with the dynamic behaviour of the strata within the fault playing a crucial role. Marked waveform distortion and trapped waves can be observed within the fault, attributed to harmonic distortion, waveform conversion at fault interfaces, and varying seismic wave propagation pathways. The region of maximum seismic response of the fault-crossing tunnel predominantly occurs near the interface between the fault and the hanging wall. The seismic response of the tunnel located in the hanging wall exceeds that in the footwall. The dynamic characteristics of the fault-crossing tunnel are significantly affected by the dynamic characteristics of the strata around the tunnel, highlighting the necessity of comprehending strata dynamics in the seismic design of such tunnels. The aforementioned findings could offer valuable insights for the seismic design of mountain tunnels crossing fault zones.
