Predicting adverse geology and tunnel responses utilizing tunnel-ground interaction data with machine learning techniques
… In recent years, highly equipped tunnel boring machines (TBMs) have frequently collected machine-ground interaction data during excavation. The collected data can improve ground characterization from the limited sampling and testing of the site’s soils and rocks. However, these tunneling data …

Examination of excavation chamber pressure behavior on a 17.5 m diameter earth pressure balance tunnel boring machine
This thesis examines excavation chamber pressure behavior within a 17.5 m diameter earth pressure balance tunnel boring machine (EPBM) used on the Alaskan Way viaduct replacement tunnel project in Seattle, Washington, USA. The study examines behavior during the first 150 rings of tunneling (10% of …
