Evaluation of earthquake impact on magnitude of the minimum principal stress along a shotcrete lined pressure tunnel in Nepal

In situ stress condition in rock mass is influenced by both tectonic activity and geological environment such as faulting and shearing in the rock mass. This influence is of significance in the Himalayan region, where the tectonic movement is active, resulting in periodic dynamic earthquakes. Each l...
