With the rapid increase of urban rail transit networks, the environmental problems induced by vibrations from subway traffic become more and more prominent. Most subway tunnels are constructed by the shield machine, which are assembled by tunnel linings connected by joints. This study investigates the effect of the tunnel longitudinal joints on the train-induced vibrations from a subway shield-driven tunnel in a homogeneous half-space. The shield-driven tunnel is considered as an elastic lining ring connected by longitudinal joints, while the ground is simplified as a homogeneous elastic half-space. The general solution for the tunnel and the ground are derived by using the thin-shell theory and the elastic continuum theory, respectively. By satisfying the boundary conditions on the tunnel-ground interface, the tunnel is coupled to the ground in a half-space domain. The responses during the running of a metro train are calculated by coupling the tunnel-ground model with the vehicle-track model. The longitudinal joint has a significant impact on ground vibrations, which increases the running RMS values of the vertical velocity by 20% ∼ 70% and of the horizontal verticity by 10% ∼ 20%. As the stiffness of the longitudinal joint decreases, the ground vibrations increase.
