Abstract:

This study aims to reduce the occurrence of rockburst accidents in the construction of diversion tunnels. Before construction, rockburst intensity assessment and prevention measures were put forward. Four evaluation indexes were selected as rock burst evaluation indexes in the study, namely, rock uniaxial saturated compressive strength Rc, rock uniaxial tensile strength Rt, maximum tangential stress σθ of surrounding rock and rock elastic energy index Wet. According to the research results, 120 groups of rockburst instances were selected as the machine learning sample data, and the WOA-SVM assessment model was proposed. Taking a section of a deep-buried and long diversion tunnel in Xianglushan of the Central Yunnan Water Diversion Project as an example, the intensity assessment results of rockburst intensity were verified. The results show that machine learning can better avoid human factors, and it is completely data-driven with an assessment accuracy of 97.22% for WOA-SVM. By comparison, its assessment accuracy and generalization are better than those of PSO-SVM, GA-SVM and WOA-BP neural network models. The results show that the WOA-SVM model can better capture the link between rockburst levels and indicators for rockburst problems.
