الملخص بالإنكليزية

Timely and reasonable matching of the control parameters and geological conditions of the rock mass in tunnel excavation is crucial for hard rock tunnel boring machines (TBMs). Therefore, this paper proposes an intelligent decision method for the main control parameters of the TBM based on the multi-objective optimization of excavation efficiency and cost. The main objectives of this method are to obtain the most important parameters of the rock mass and machine, determine the optimization objective, and establish the objective function. In this study, muck information was included as an important parameter in the traditional rock mass and machine parameter database. The rock-machine interaction model was established through an improved neural network algorithm. Using 250 sets of data collected in the field, the validity of the rock-machine interaction relationship model was verified. Then, taking the cost as the optimization objective, the cost calculation model related to tunneling and the cutter was obtained. Subsequently, combined with rock-machine interaction model, the objective function of control parameter optimization based on cost was established. Finally, a tunneling test was carried out at the engineering site, and the main TBM control parameters (thrust and torque) after the optimization decision were used to excavate the test section. Compared with the values in the section where the TBM operators relied on experience, the average penetration rate of the TBM increased by 11.10%, and the average cutter life increased by 15.62%. The results indicate that this method can play an effective role in TBM tunneling in the test section.
