Basic principles of the theory of rock cutting with rolling disc cutters are used to appropriately reduce tunnel boring machine (TBM) logged data and compute the specific energy (SE) of rock cutting as a function of geometry of the cutterhead and operational parameters. A computational code written in Fortran 77 is used to perform Kriging predictions in a regular or irregular grid in 1D, 2D or ...

The flow behaviour of soil- mixtures, used as support medium in closed-mode tunnelling with Earth pressure balance shield machines, is an essential factor for the operation of the tunnel boring machine (TBM). On the one hand, a rather soft consistency is required providing a homogeneous face support pressure transfer to the tunnel face. High accuracy in face support regulation is crucial ...

If a high amount of water-bearing ground is expected, continuous conveyor systems can be designed to minimize associated risks. Incline is kept relatively low for EPB conveyors - a maximum of about 10 degrees, compared to 18 degrees in hard rock tunnels. In addition, transfer points are entirely enclosed to keep material from spilling out.
