Features: This book systematically and comprehensively discusses the theory and engineering practice of underground engineering. It is divided into five parts and 14 chapters. Part 1: General Introduction. It briefly outlines the scope, characteristics, and systematic analysis methods of underground engineering. Part 2: Underground Engineering Survey and Evaluation. It discusses the methods, techniques, and experience of surveying and evaluating the geological engineering environment in which underground engineering is located, as well as rock mass quality assessment. Part 3: Stability Analysis and Design. It elaborates on the theoretical analysis and numerical calculation methods for underground engineering, the design principles of underground engineering, and briefly introduces common numerical analysis software used domestically and internationally. Part 4: Underground Engineering Construction and Monitoring. It provides an overview of the main construction methods and monitoring techniques currently used in underground engineering. Part 5: Research and Prospects of Underground Engineering. It briefly introduces the reliability analysis methods and design concepts of underground engineering that are currently under research. The chapters in this book are both independent and reflect the interconnections between subsystems, emphasizing the role and dynamic feedback process of subsystems in the underground engineering system. This ensures that the concept and philosophy of systematic analysis of underground engineering are integrated throughout the book. It enables readers not only to learn and master the analysis theory, design methods, and construction techniques of underground engineering but also to understand the essence, characteristics, and the necessity of applying systematic analysis concepts in this complex engineering system. This book is written for graduate students in civil engineering and can serve as a textbook for graduate students in geotechnical engineering, engineering mechanics, and mining engineering. It can also be used as a reference book for senior undergraduate students and researchers, designers, and construction personnel engaged in railway, water conservancy, mining, and defense-related projects.
