Abstract

The shield tunneling method is commonly used in the development and construction of underground spaces, and the adjustment of its parameters is a crucial part of shield construction. However, there are relatively few studies on optimizing tunneling parameters from a sustainable perspective, with a focus on energy saving and emission reduction. This study addresses this gap by combining engineering geological conditions with shield machine propulsion parameters in a specific section of metro construction in China. By aiming to reduce power consumption and improve efficiency, an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm based on the concept of Pareto optimal solutions was employed to optimize the tunneling parameters. The results demonstrated that the optimized parameters reduced power consumption and improved efficiency. This validates the feasibility of the optimization scheme and its potential for broader applications in sustainable underground construction.
