ЧИСЕЛЬНИЙ АНАЛІЗ ВАРІАНТІВ ОДНОСКЛЕПІНЧАСТОЇ СТАНЦІЇ МЕТРОПОЛІТЕНУ

Purpose. The purpose of the study is a numerical analysis of a single-vaulted metro station options, the performing of which allows determining which of the options passes the strength check. The results of the numerical analysis using the finite element method, which allows to determine the strength of the station structure, are the values of the stress-strain state, as well as equivalent stresses. Methodology. An analysis of the lining stress-strain state for variating structural solutions was carried out, for which the model reproduced half of the single-vault station structure with the addition of a second invert. The single-vault station models were built based on real geometric dimensions using the professional calculation software Structure CAD for Windows, version 7.29 R.3 (SCAD). Findings. In recent years, the single-vaulted metro station has become the underground structure most often used during construction. The design options for the single-vaulted station proposed by designers necessarily require scientific substantiation. As part of the study, the results of which are presented in the article, a numerical analysis of the single-vaulted station, which has two design options, was performed. The created finite element models reflect the features of the developed options in a spatial setting. The numerical analysis performed for dead weight and moving load allowed for finding out the parameters of the stress-strain state. Based on the determined parameters, the overall strength and stability of the single-vaulted station were evaluated and recommendations for their increase were provided. Originality. The originality of the study consists of the obtained results of numerical analysis for a single-vaulted metro station options, which allowed to find out which of the options passed the strength check. Practical value. The practical value lies in obtaining the results of the calculation using the finite element method, which allowed to find the strength of the station structure and reasonably choose the metro station option.
