TBM pressure models: calculation tools [PDF]
Mechanized tunnel construction in soft ground has evolved significantly over the last 20 years, especially on the matter of settlement control. This was achieved by guiding the TBM operation to control the main factors that induce soil displacements ...

The estimation of construction costs for shield tunneling projects is typically based on a standard quota, which fails to consider the variation of geological parameters and often results in significant differences in unit cost. To address this issue, we

Arguments for a "U.S. Kamioka": SNOLab and its Implications for North American Underground Science Planning [PDF]
We argue for a cost-effective, long-term North American underground science strategy based on partnership with Canada and initial construction of a modest U.S. Stage I laboratory designed to complement SNOLab.

Fluidization Behavior of Soft Soil Induced by Shield Construction
Shield construction will cause the fluidization of soft soil which is characterized by flow plasticity. This paper presents two theoretical models of soil flow behavior based on a fluid mechanics framework to understand the behavior of soft soil during ...

Photon assisted tunneling as an origin of the Dynes density of states [PDF]
We show that the effect of a high-temperature environment in current transport through a normal metal-insulator-superconductor tunnel junction can be described by an effective density of states (DOS) in the superconductor. In the limit of a resistive low-

Zero-bias anomaly in two-dimensional electron layers and multiwall nanotubes [PDF]
The zero-bias anomaly in the dependence of the tunneling density of states $\nu (\epsilon)$ on the energy $\epsilon$ of the tunneling particle for two- and one-dimensional multilayered structures is studied.
