Influence of soil plug on pipe ramming process
Abstract
Different modes of advance of a pipe with a soil plug under rectangular impulse are investigated numerically and analytically with regard to dry friction between the pipe and plug and between the pipe and external stationary medium. The two model solutions are compared with and without regard to the pipe and plug elasticity. It is shown that elasticity of the pipe and plug is neglectable in case of a long-duration impulse.
