文摘A finite element program with two different soil models is adopted to study the negative skin friction of an unloaded single pile embedded in the settlement trough of a tunnel. The results show that it is necessary to consider the nonlinear property of soil and to set interface elements between piles and soil in analysis of the negative skin friction of piles. Among a pile group, the pile located above the tunnel centerline bears larger downdrag than the ones far away from tunnel centerline.
