Abstract: A mimetic statics numeric method on earthquake resistance analysis of shallow buried tunnels is introduced in this paper. The effects of seismic waves are regarded as equivalent static loading on surrounding rock and tunnel lining. According to the feature of the seismic waves, the effects of body waves (P,S wave) and surface wave (R wave) should be calculated separately. The calculated stresses of seismic waves are added to the stresses of static loads as the maximum stresses in tunnel lining. FEM or other numeric methods can be used in computing the structural displacement and stress both for seismic wave and static load. The introduced method has been used in the research on earthquake resistance of the tunnels in Nanning-Kunming railway project.
