Abstract

The propagation of shock wave pressure in the tunnel is greatly affected by the tunnel structure, shape, material and other factors, and there are great differences in the propagation law of shock wave pressure in different kinds of tunnels. In order to study the propagation law of shock wave pressure in tunnels with different mate-rials, taking the long straight tunnel with the square section as an example, the AUTODYN software is used to simulate the explosion of TNT in the concrete, steel and granite tunnel, and study on the variation law of shock wave pressure in tunnels with different materials. By using dimensional analysis and combined with the results of numerical simulation, a mathematical model of the propagation law of shock wave pressure in the tunnel is established, and the effectiveness of the mathematical model is verified by making the explosion test of the warhead in the reinforce concrete tunnel. The results show that the same mass of TNT explodes in the tunnel with different materials, and the shock wave overpressure peak at the same measuring point is approximate in the near field. However, there is a significant difference in the middle-far fields from the explosion center, the shock wave overpressure peak in the steel tunnel is 20.76% and 34.82% higher than that of the concrete and the granite tunnel respectively, and the shock wave overpressure peak in the concrete tunnel is 24.91% higher than that in the granite tunnel. Through the experimental verification, getting the result that the maximum relative deviation between the measured value and the calculated value of the shock wave overpressure peak is 11.85%. Therefore, it is proved that the mathematical model can be used to predict the shock wave overpressure peak in the tunnel with different materials, and it can provide some reference for the power evaluation of warhead explosion in the tunnel.
