Field-Informed Hydro-Mechanical Identification and Data-Driven Inversion of an Equivalent Groundwater Leakage Pathway in a Deep Ship-Lock Excavation Along the Xiangjiang River, China
Localized groundwater leakage through retaining and cutoff systems can reorganize hydraulic gradients and trigger deformation that is difficult to distinguish from the normal response to excavation and dewatering. This study tests whether spatial deformation residuals, interpreted with transient hydro-mechanical modeli...
