The construction of shield tunnels is greatly influenced by the presence of groundwater. Based on the upper bound theorem of limit analysis, this paper presents an analytical investigation on the stability of shield tunnel face subjected to the impact of pore water pressure. Considering the nonlinear strength feature of soil mass, the nonlinear failure criterion of power-law type is employed, and the tangential technique is utilized to determine its equivalent Mohr–Coulomb strength parameters. The log-spiral failure mechanism for shield tunnel face is constructed, and three different cases of the relation between groundwater level and this mechanism are summarized. After that, rates of work of external forces and rate of internal energy dissipation are computed and analytical expression for the supporting pressure is deduced. Numerical solution with respect to specified parameters is calculated through optimization. Parametric analysis is performed and the variation of required supporting pressure with increasing height of groundwater level is presented.
