Abstract: The stress analysis for tunnel lining and surrounding rock of tunnels is an important task in tunnel design.In this paper,analytical solution to lining and surrounding rock stress of circular tunnel is studied based on submarine tunnel for Xiamen east corridor.Firstly the program is compiled by means of MATLAB software and has been valid through a project which has explicit solutions. Secondly tunnel lining and surrounding rock stresses of four cases are depicted.Finally,the obtained results are studied and the authors put forward a few suggestions.
