Abstract :
In order to discover the law of the seasonally frozen soil tunnel´s thermal field, on the background of Shaziya tunnel, selected a section, the natural surface, the tunnel vault, tunnel wall and the tunnel arch has been simulated. And we found that the temperature conditions, surrounding environment, engineering measures are a major factor in the tunnel freeze injury on the basis of the phenomenon and mechanism of frozen soil tunnel.
