Empirical Settlement Models

Empirical Settlement Models is a class of predictive models in geotechnical engineering that relies on observed field data and statistical correlations to estimate ground surface displacements caused by tunneling, distinguished from mechanistic models by its dependence on measured performance records rather than theoretical soil mechanics principles.
