Evolution Mechanism, Monitoring, and Early Warning Method of Water Inrush in Deep-Buried Long Tunnel
Abstract
Water inrush is a serious disaster in tunnel construction. Because the process of water inrush is complicated and there is no effective monitoring and early warning method, the control of water inrush disaster is passive. Firstly, the failure mode and determination method of safety thickness of the antioutburst structure are summarized. The key breakthrough directions and development trends of water inrush mechanism was analyzed. Secondly, the sensitivity ranking and the adjunct characteristics of different types of precursor information are determined by the model test. An improved scheme of microseismic monitoring technology is proposed to locate the spatial position of the water inrush channel, and a multi-information time-space integrated monitoring method for an antioutburst structure is established. By analyzing the evolution law of multi-information in the process of water inrush, the evolution model and its identification method are put forward. Finally, the level of water inrush was determined through the analysis of the dynamic and static reserves of disaster source, and a multilevel and comprehensive warning system of tunnel water inrush is established. Through the remote real-time monitoring and early warning platform and its engineering application, the early warning of water inrush time trend and the early warning of water inrush rupture space position are realized.
