Tunnel Convergence Analysis

Tunnel Convergence Analysis is a geomechanical assessment method that quantifies the time-dependent deformation of tunnel linings and surrounding rock mass under in-situ stress conditions, distinguishing itself from other structural monitoring techniques by its specific focus on radial displacement convergence to evaluate stability and support performance.
