Kinematic Limit Analysis of Roof Stability for Elliptical Tunnels in Rock Masses

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 49, Issue 16, Page 3880-3896, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Noncircular cross‐sections are commonly encountered in engineering practice; however, primary attempts to analyze roof stability have focused on circular and rectangular configurations. This study investigates the roof stability of elliptical tunnels with varying aspect ratios, employing two semi‐analytical approaches: piecewise linear and ...

Glacial‐Interglacial and Millennial‐Scale Changes in Nitrous Oxide Emissions Pathways and Source Regions

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 39, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract During the transition from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) to the Holocene, the atmospheric N2O mole fraction increased by 80 nmol mol−1. Using ice core measurements of N2O isotopomer ratios, we show that this increase was driven by increases in both nitrification and denitrification, with the relative partitioning between both production ...

Decoupling of N2O Production and Emissions in the Northern Indian Ocean

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The northern Indian Ocean is a hotspot of nitrous oxide (N2 ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$O) emission to the atmosphere. Yet, the direct link between production and emission of N2 ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$O in this region is still poorly constrained, in particular the relative contributions of denitrification, nitrification and ocean transport to the N2 ...

Understanding Tunnel Lining Deformations: The Influence of Cover Depth on Structural Behaviour

open access: yesEngineering Perspective
As cities continue to expand, the demand for effective underground infrastructure to address urban transportation challenges has increased. Tunnels, particularly those constructed using the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM), play a crucial role in ...

An insight into the New Austrian Tunnelling Method (NATM)

open access: yes, 2004
The objective of this paper is to investigate a particular tunnelling method, known as the New Austrian Tunnelling Method (NATM), which first appeared in English publications in 1964.
