Abstract: The face support pressure control is a key operation during earth pressure balanced shield excavation. Three-dimensional fast Lagrangian differential finite element method can calculate the large strain of material, which is used to simulate the influence of face support pressure to face movement and collapse. Deformation and collapse pattern is discussed, and the soil stress release is analyzed due to shield excavation. Some useful results from numerical simulation are given for controlling face support pressure.

Key words: earth pressure balanced shield, silt soil, face stability, support pressure, stress release
