Performance analysis of tunnel-boring machine by probabilistic systems approach

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, the performance of an earth pressure balance tunnel-boring machine (EPB-TBM) during tunnel construction is analysed. A case study with data from the east–west part of the Tehran metro line 7 is employed to develop a methodology.

Hard Rock Tunnel Boring: Performance Predictions and Cutter Life Assessments

open access: yes, 2016
The use of hard rock tunnel boring machines (TBMs) has become widely and generally used with success but in too many cases, due to unanticipated situations and/or inappropriate assessments, with catastrophic consequences. Hard rock tunnel boring involves

Effect of machine factors of tunnel boring machines on penetration rates in rocks

open access: yes, 2019
Prediction of penetration rate of tunnel boring machine (TBM) is important in tunneling design; however, the effect of machine specifications of the TBM on penetration rate remains poorly identified. This study defined a representative machine factor (MF)

Effect of confining pressure on rock breaking by high-pressure waterjet-assisted TBM

open access: yesUnderground Space
High-pressure waterjet-assisted tunnel boring machine (WTBM) is an efficient method for improving the tunneling performance of a tunnel boring machine (TBM) and reducing the wear of its disc cutters in hard rock with high geostresses.
