Research progress and prospects of seismic performance on underground structure embedded in soft soil foundation

Abstract

Abstract For the complexity and difficulty of seismic research on subway station structure system embedded in soft soil foundation, the seismic research method is quite different from the ground structure. The methods of seismic research on subway station structures in soft soil were summarized, and relevant literature on this field in recent years were sorted out. The advanced progress of theoretical analysis and quasi-static simplification analysis, model test (shaking table test, centrifuge test), numerical simulation (the total stress method, the effective stress method), and dynamic reliability of underground structures were mainly introduced for seismic analysis of subway station embedded in the soft foundation. The advantages and disadvantages of each method and the development direction of this field were proposed briefly in order to better understand seismic analysis of underground structure engineering in soft soil.
