Urban tunnelling can be highly challenging, especially in areas where limited ground settlements and environmental disturbance is required. Mechanised tunnelling is usually preferred in such ground environments, specifically Slurry or EPBM (Earth Pressur...

Due to the large cross-section design of large-diameter shield tunnels, most of the rocks and soils it crosses are composite strata with upper soft and lower hard. In order to reduce the construction cost of shield working shafts, large-diameter shield l...

Tunneling in highly permeable ground using a slurry shield machine can be challenging because it is difficult to form the so-called filter cake on the tunnel face to transport the support pressure. Consequently, destructive accidents might happen, such a...
