Analytical Model of Piezoresistivity for an Inner-Adhesive-Type Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic Tunnel Reinforcement

Cracks in a tunnel lining often emerge under the coupling action of earth and water pressures in a complex stratum environment, and accidents often occur in the process of repairing cracks. In this study, we used the force-sensitive properties of embedded carbon fibre to conduct early-warning research on lining reinforcement to prevent secondary damage during tunnel lining reinforcement. According to the earth load characteristics, a bond stress–slip model of the embedded carbon fibre under bidirectional earth pressure was established on the basis of the thick-walled cylinder theory and the semi-inverse method in elastic theory. The length change of a single fibre was obtained on the basis of the principle that the volume of a single carbon fibre is constant during the deformation process. The resistance and strain model of the single carbon fibre under the action of an external force was then established following the relationship between the resistance, the length change and the volume change of the single carbon fibre. The resistance of carbon fibre composite materials, according to their production technology and unidirectional force properties, was assumed to be a mixture of the series and parallel resistances of the single carbon fibre, and a piezoresistive model of carbon fibre composite materials was formed by using the multidimensional Taylor series expansion and the idea of the average equivalent. The comparison between the theoretical and monitoring values of the piezoresistive model in a tunnel project in Tibet, China revealed that the resistance of various types of carbon fibres increases with the radius of the lining reinforcement and earth pressure and decreases with an increase in the lining reinforcement thickness. Meanwhile, the angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement also have certain effects on the resistance value of the carbon fibre. The variation curve of the piezoresistive model was exponential in both deeply and shallowly buried tunnels, which verifies the rationality of the model.


Introduction
In tunnel construction, cracks often occur in the tunnel lining due to geological activities, formation pressure, groundwater and other factors. Two methods are mainly used to prevent and control lining cracks [1][2][3]. The two prevention methods are as follows: one is to set up a telescopic lining according to the size of the formation pressure to facilitate the adaptability of the lining and the formation pressure and the other is to add large-deformation fibre materials to the lining and change the lining stiffness to prevent the generation of cracks [4]. Engineers lack the concept of preventing and controlling cracks and limiting cost; thus, most lining cracks are often controlled using methods such as building a cover arch [5], pouring concrete after planting reinforcement [6] and bonding polymeric plates [7]. The technology of pouring concrete after planting reinforcement is relatively mature; however, this technology destroys the lining structure. Destroying the relationship between the model and the parameters was analysed, and the feasibility of the model was verified through a comparison with the actual engineering monitoring values.

Model Establishment
A traditional tunnel generally uses a compound lining, which mainly comprises the primary support made of shotcrete and a secondary lining structure made of reinforced concrete. Terzaghi's consolidation theory of the surrounding rock pressure for a tunnel indicates that vertical gravity pressure will be generated in the overlying rock after the tunnel is excavated, and the horizontal deformation of the soil layer will produce a certain pressure due to the vertical pressure. After the tunnel is supported by the lining, lining cracks occur under the bidirectional action of vertical and horizontal deformation pressures. The embedded carbon fibre fabric is bonded onto the inner-diameter surface of the lining to form lining reinforcement, to prevent the damage caused by secondary cracking. The mechanical model is shown in Figure 1. fibre and the internode characteristics of CFRP, a piezoresistive theoretical model was established to provide warning of the secondary cracking of the lining reinforcement. The relationship between the model and the parameters was analysed, and the feasibility of the model was verified through a comparison with the actual engineering monitoring values.

In addition, r 1 represents the external radius of the lining reinforcement and r 2 represents the internal radius of the lining reinforcement.
Assuming that the thickness of the lining reinforcement is t, σ r represents the radial stress, σ θ is the tangential stress, σ v represents the vertical stress, σ h represents the horizontal load and θ represents the angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement. The external load of the lining reinforcement in Equation (2) can be divided into uniformly distributed confining pressure and confining pressure using trigonometric functions, as shown in Figure 2. dial stress, θ σ is the tangential stress, v σ represents the vertical stress, h σ represents the horizontal load and θ represents the angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement. The external load of the lining reinforcement in Equation (2) can be divided into uniformly distributed confining pressure and confining pressure using trigonometric functions, as shown in Figure 2. According to the thick-walled cylinder theory in elastic theory, the stress of the lining reinforcement when subjected to the uniformly distributed confining pressure shown in Figure 2a is as shown in Equation (3). Figure 2b shows that the trigonometric function for the surrounding rock is solved in accordance with the semi-inverse method of elastic theory [7]. The expression for radial and tangential stresses for external loads contains a trigonometric function; thus, the stress function can be assumed to be as in Equation (4), where φ is the stress function, ( ) f x is the inclusion function of the stress function and θ is the angle at different positions of the lining reinforcement, which rotates clockwise along the positive direction of the X-axis ( Figure 1). Stress can be expressed by the stress function, as shown in Equation (5).
This function satisfies the compatibility equation, as shown in Equation (6). According to the thick-walled cylinder theory in elastic theory, the stress of the lining reinforcement when subjected to the uniformly distributed confining pressure shown in Figure 2a is as shown in Equation (3).
(3) Figure 2b shows that the trigonometric function for the surrounding rock is solved in accordance with the semi-inverse method of elastic theory [7].

Equations (3) and (15) are combined, and the stress of the lining reinforcement can be obtained, as shown in Equation (16), where r 1 2 r 1 2 −r 2 2 is the influence coefficient of the geometrical dimensions of the lining reinforcement, which is related to its thickness and radius.

Piezoresistive Model of Single Carbon Fibre
Assuming that the volume does not change when a single carbon fibre is deformed when subjected to external forces, the length change and cross-section of the fibre are shown in Equation (17), where ∆r c f is the radius change of a single CFRP, r c f is the radius of a single CFRP, ∆l c f is the length change of a single CFRP and l c f is the length of a single CFRP. The deformation of a single fibre is a small change, ∆l c f ≈ dl c f . Similarly, in Equation (17), the section coefficient ν c is introduced to realise an integrable implicit function to represent the function relationship between the rates of length and radius changes.
With ν c , Equation (17) can be converted into Equation (18) of the integrable function, where ν c is the parameter related to the length and section. Equation (19) can be obtained by solving the following differential equation, where C i is the integral constant. The rate of volume change under the unidirectional tensile stress of the inner CFRP is shown in Equation (20), where V c f is the volume of a single fibre, u c f is Poisson's ratio and ε c f is the strain of a single carbon fibre under unidirectional stress ε c f = ∆l l . Assume that the relationship between the electrical resistivity and the rate of volume change is shown in Equation (21), where α c f is the parameter of the electrical resistivity and the rate of volume change. Equation (22) is obtained in accordance with the rate of the resistance change.
Equations (18) and (20)- (22) are combined to obtain the general solution of the resistance and strain of a single fibre, where C c f is the integral constant of the carbon fibre, which can be written down to facilitate subsequent calculation.

Piezoresistive Model of Embedded Carbon Fibre
Compared with the radius of the tunnel, the embedded CFRP is much thinner, with negligible thickness. The stress condition of the carbon fibre is r = r 2 , based on the stress Equation (Equation (16)) of the lining reinforcement, and the stress Equation can be obtained as shown in Equation (24).
According to Equation (24), the CFRP is subjected to a tangential, single-direction tensile stress, and the relationship between the stress and strain of the carbon fibre is expressed by Hooke's Law, as shown in Equation (25).
The CFRP is bonded to the inner wall of the tunnel using adhesive, according to the reinforcement specifications. Figure 3 shows the carbon fibre reinforcement diagram for repairing cracks in the Sichuan-Tibet Railway Tunnel. The adhesive is brushed onto the damaged part of the structure with a wooden brush, pasted with CFRP and then repeatedly rolled until the surface of the CFRP sheet is completely wrapped in adhesive, as shown in Figure 3a. The carbon fibre is wrapped in adhesive (an insulating material), according to the microscopic analysis of the carbon fibre composite material performed by Hou Xiangchi. The fibres along the bonding direction of the CFRP are connected in series, as shown in Figure 3b. Meanwhile, the fibres along the vertical and bonding directions are completely wrapped in and separated by adhesive; that is, the fibres are insulated. The vertically oriented fibres in this state are connected in parallel with other fibres, as shown in Figure 3c. The resistance model of the embedded CFRP according to the bonding characteristics of fibres along the length and vertical directions is shown in Figure 4. The equivalent resistance is shown in Equation (26) which has been shown in Appendix A for detailed solution process.

Fiber bundle=R cf11 The piezoresistive model of the embedded CFRP can be obtained by combining Equations (23) and (26), as shown in Equation (27), where cfr R is the average resistance of the embedded CFRP.
In Equation (27), the Taylor series is expanded into Equation (28) as follows: The piezoresistive model of the embedded CFRP can be obtained by combining Equations (23) and (26), as shown in Equation (27), where R c f r is the average resistance of the embedded CFRP.
In Equation (27), the Taylor series is expanded into Equation (28) as follows: can then be expanded into Equation (29).
Equation (30) is expanded by the Taylor series twice according to the form of 1 1−x , to obtain Equation (31). Fibres are evenly distributed in the embedded carbon fibre sheet. In a certain small range, a minimal difference is observed in the strain between fibres. The strain of a single fibre can be replaced by the average strain at a certain point, as shown in Equation (32).
The average strain at a certain point is calculated in Equation (33), where ∆l θ represents the length variation of carbon fibre along the tunnel section, l θ represents the length of the carbon fibre along the direction of a section within a certain range and θ represents the angle value of the lining at different positions. According to the average strain equations of the fibre at a certain point, that is, Equations (33), (24) and (25), the relationship between the strain of the embedded carbon fibres and the external load of the tunnel lining is shown in the equation.
The piezoresistive model of the embedded carbon fibres is obtained by combining Equations (23) and (33), as shown in Equation (34).
The piezoresistive model of the embedded carbon fibres is obtained by combining Equations (31) and (34), as shown in Equation (35), where m represents the assumed number of resistance nodes along the vertical direction of the carbon fibre, k represents the expansion coefficient of the Taylor series, n represents the assumed number of resistance nodes along the length direction of the carbon fibre, and i and j represent the process coefficients of the internode resistance. In addition, l represents the process coefficient of the Taylor series and C c f ji represents the integral constant.
According to Equation (35), the change in the resistance value of the embedded carbon fibre is related to parameters such as the integral constant, the cross-section coefficient of a single carbon fibre, Poisson's ratio and the elastic modulus, as well as external factors such as vertical and horizontal formation pressure loads and the angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement.

Correlation Analysis of the Cross-Section Coefficient of the Carbon Fibre
Under the action of radial stress, the carbon fibre will be elongated, and its diameter will change correspondingly. This is related to the preparation technology and cross-section coefficient of the carbon fibre. Table 1 shows that the carbon fibres used in the building structure mainly comprise polyacrylonitrile based on dry and wet preparation processes, which can be divided into high-strength and high-modulus carbon fibres. The cross-section coefficient and integral constant of the carbon fibre are calculated by taking 10 mm as an example. The cross-section coefficient is related to the deformation of the carbon fibre and can be expressed by the deformation modulus, which can be calculated using Equation (19). The calculation results are shown in Table 1 and Figure 5. The analysis revealed that the cross-section and integral coefficients of the different fibres gradually decrease with an increase in radius.  The relationship between the radius and length of different fibres can be obtained by substituting the cross-section coefficient and integral constant into Equation (20). The fibre with a length of 20 mm is taken as an example, in order to analyse the relationship between length and radius, as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 indicates that the radius changes exponentially, and the change is fairly small when the fibre length changes from 0 mm to 20 mm. The radius changes slightly, and an extreme value is observed, when the fibre length increases to a certain extent. Some differences are found amongst fibres of different types with different properties, but the index variation trend is consistent.

Analysis of External Load Influence on the Piezoresistive Model
Owing to the tunnel construction, the overlying strata produce vertical pressure, and the soil layer also generates a corresponding horizontal pressure under the action of the vertical pressure. The ratio of vertical to horizontal pressure is called the lateral pressure coefficient, and the radial tensile stress can be expressed as in Equation (36), where λ is the lateral pressure coefficient and r 1 2 r 1 2 −r 2 2 is the section coefficient. Equation (36) shows that the radial stress is related to vertical load, lateral pressure coefficient, geometrical relationship and angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement.
The geometric relationship coefficient is related to the radius and thickness of the lining reinforcement, and the analysis is based on the external radius of the lining reinforcement. When the thickness is fixed at 0.5 m, the relationship between the geometric relationship coefficient and the radius can be expressed as the relationship between the geometric relationship coefficient and the external radius, as shown in Figure 7. Figure 7 shows that the geometric parameters increase linearly with the radius. However, the geometric coefficient rapidly decreases with an increase in the thickness of the lining reinforcement, and the geometric coefficient does not decrease and gradually approaches a value of 1 when the thickness of the lining reinforcement is increased to 4 m (where the external radius is 11 m). Therefore, the thickness should be between 0.5 and 1 m in the actual engineering environment, when calculating the preliminary stress of the lining reinforcement (Equation 3), and a certain error exists in calculating the stress of the lining reinforcement using the thick-walled cylinder theory in elastic theory. The error in the stress calculation disappears only when the thickness of the lining reinforcement is larger than 4 m. vertical pressure.

The error in the stress calculation disappears only when the thickness of the lining reinforcement is larger than 4 m. When other geometric parameters remain unchanged and are positive, the following assumptions are required regarding the influence of geometrical parameters on resistance: the expansion coefficient k in Taylor's formula is 3; the length of the fibre sheet is 14 m and the width is 0.5 m; the number of fibre internodes along the bonding direction n is set to 200,000; the vertical direction is set to 10,000; the lateral pressure coefficient is set to 0.401; the vertical earth pressure is set to 200 kPa; and Poisson's ratio is set to 0.307.

Figure 8 shows the relationship between resistance and radius under the influence of the angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement. The resistance value slightly changes and rapidly increases when the radius changes up to 25 m and exceeds 25 m, respectively. In the process of increasing the radius, the resistance value is affected by the angle at different positions of the lining reinforcement, presenting a triangular function distribution. Figure 9 shows the relationship between resistance and thickness. Resistance increases with the thickness when the thickness changes from 0.5 m to 1 m at the beginning. Then, the thickness has minimal influence on resistance despite its continued increase.

Figure 11 shows that when the lateral pressure coefficient is small, the influence on the resistance value is also small, when the lateral pressure coefficient is larger than 0.4 to 0.8 the resistance value increases with the lateral pressure coefficient and when the resistance value continues to increase, the angles at different positions of the tunnel have a substantial influence on the increase in the resistance value.

Application of the Piezoresistive Model in Engineering
During the construction of the Lhasa-Nyingchi Railway tunnel group in China's Tibet Autonomous Region, part of the lining cracked, and some water seeped through the cracks. Figure 12 shows the location and direction of the cracks. This figure indicates that cracks can be mainly divided into the following types according to their trends: horizontal cracks along the axial direction of the tunnel, circumferential cracks and inclined cracking value does not substantially change when the vertical pressure is small but varies significantly when the vertical pressure is larger than 200 kPa, and the influence of angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement also changes significantly.

Figure 12 shows the location and direction of the cracks. This figure indicates that cracks can be mainly divided into the following types according to their trends: horizontal cracks along the axial direction of the tunnel, circumferential cracks and inclined cracking along the vertical section of the tunnel. The lining has a compound circular lining structure, with the outer diameter set to 5.6 m, the inner diameter set to 5.1 m and the thickness set to 0.5 m. T300 carbon fibre was used to repair the cracks. The mechanical parameters of T300 carbon fibre are shown in Table 2. Construction was performed in accordance with the reinforcement specifications and the Toray carbon fibre manual. Firstly, resin was brushed onto the cracks as the bottom glue to fill the cracks and level the structural plane. A special adhesive was then brushed onto the cracks to level the structural plane and provide bonding for the CFRP. Finally, the CFRP was pasted and repeatedly rolled with a circular stick. This process induces the oozing of adhesive from the surface of the carbon fibre until the adhesive completely immerses the CFRP, thus creating the lining reinforcement. The initial resistance value was measured using the copper rod method when the adhesive had solidified after 24 h. Figure 13 shows the lining structure and the resistance test result for the lining reinforcement.

Conclusions
Intelligent early warning in carbon fibre reinforcement construction was studied on the basis of changes in resistance and pressure in the cracks of the CFRP reinforced lining. The following conclusions can be drawn:  Figures 14 and 15 show that the earth pressure varies with different buried depths, and a certain difference is observed between the horizontal pressure on both sides. Figure 14 shows the earth pressure monitoring value during the construction of deeply buried tunnels. On this basis, the earth pressure increases as the tunnel is deepened. When the earth pressure is redistributed and the tunnel is supported by the lining, the earth pressure is stabilized; the vertical top pressure is as high as 327 kPa, the horizontal pressures on both sides of the soil are similar and small (with an average value of approximately 92 kPa) and the lateral pressure coefficient is 0.281. Figure 15 shows the rock pressure monitoring values for a shallowly buried tunnel. When the vault pressure reaches 110 kPa, the monitoring values tend to converge, when the horizontal pressure of the left wall reaches 30 kPa the monitoring value stabilizes and when the horizontal pressure of right wall 2 reaches 9 kPa, the monitoring value stabilizes and the horizontal pressure difference of the formation reaches 21 kPa. Geological exploration revealed that the horizontal pressure difference was mainly due to a certain inclination angle of the stratum and a certain impact pressure on the lining.
The number of internodes n along the fibre length was determined as 2 × 107, according to the length, and the number of internodes n along the vertical fibre bonding direction was set to 10,000. In the deeply buried tunnel, the lateral pressure coefficient was set to 0.281, and the vertical earth pressure was set to 327 kPa. In the shallowly buried tunnels, the vertical pressure was set to 110 kPa, and the lateral pressure coefficient varied from 0.082 to 0.273. The influence of the angles at different positions of the tunnel lining reinforcement was ignored. The tunnel top was taken as an example, and the angle was set to 90 • . Under the action of the formation pressure for deeply and shallowly buried tunnels, the relationship between the pressure of the carbon fibre lining reinforcement monitoring value and the theoretically calculated value of the resistance is shown in Figure 16. The analysis of Figure 16 indicates that the resistance and load curves for deeply and shallowly buried tunnels are exponentially distributed. Compared with the shallowly buried tunnel, the piezoresistive curve for a deeply buried tunnel reaches the theoretical extreme value based on resistance theory earlier than for a shallowly buried tunnel. As the lateral pressure coefficient of the shallowly buried tunnel decreases, the piezoresistive theoretical curve becomes increasingly gentle, with a calculated value close to the monitoring value for the shallowly buried tunnels. Regardless of the depth, the theoretical value deviates from the calculated value, and the monitoring value does not reach the theoretical extreme value.

Conclusions
Intelligent early warning in carbon fibre reinforcement construction was studied on the basis of changes in resistance and pressure in the cracks of the CFRP reinforced lining. The following conclusions can be drawn: (1) An exponential relationship is observed between the length and radius of a single fibre for different types of fibres. (2) The resistance value of the lining reinforcement increases with the radius and decreases with an increase in thickness. The influence of angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement can be observed under substantial changes in resistance. (3) The vertical load of the soil layer affects the lining reinforcement. The resistance value varies with the lateral pressure coefficient when the lateral pressure coefficient fluctuates between 0.4 and 0.8. (4) The monitoring and theoretical calculation of the resistance and pressure of the carbon fibre reinforced lining in the deeply and shallowly buried sections of the tunnel revealed that the piezoresistive models are exponential in these tunnels, and the resistance monitoring value does not reach the theoretical extreme value.

Conclusions
Intelligent early warning in carbon fibre reinforcement construction was studied on the basis of changes in resistance and pressure in the cracks of the CFRP reinforced lining. The following conclusions can be drawn: (1) An exponential relationship is observed between the length and radius of a single fibre for different types of fibres. (2) The resistance value of the lining reinforcement increases with the radius and decreases with an increase in thickness. The influence of angles at different positions of the lining reinforcement can be observed under substantial changes in resistance. (3) The vertical load of the soil layer affects the lining reinforcement. The resistance value varies with the lateral pressure coefficient when the lateral pressure coefficient fluctuates between 0.4 and 0.8. (4) The monitoring and theoretical calculation of the resistance and pressure of the carbon fibre reinforced lining in the deeply and shallowly buried sections of the tunnel revealed that the piezoresistive models are exponential in these tunnels, and the resistance monitoring value does not reach the theoretical extreme value.
