Abstract Considering soil-structure interaction，few analytical solutions of lateral internal forces in tunnel lining due to Rayleigh wave(R wave) have been obtained at present. In this paper，the closed-form analytical solutions for internal forces in circular tunnel lining due to R wave at any propagation angle were derived based on mechanics of underground structure and theory of elastic waves using the pseudo-static method. Two ultimate contact conditions，i.e.，the full-slippage and no-slippage along the soil-lining interface，were considered respectively. A numerical example showed that the lateral internal forces in circular tunnel lining reached the maximum values if the propagation of R wave was perpendicular to the tunnel axis and the internal force differences between two contact conditions were minor. In addition，the internal forces resulted from R wave were much higher than those from SV wave，especially the lateral axial force which was induced mainly by the component P wave contained in R wave. In seismic design of shallow tunnels，the lateral internal forces in the lining caused by R wave should be paid adequate attentions.
