This can be realized by new design tools for designers, by instant data access for engineers, by virtual prototyping and training for manufacturers, and by robotic devices for maintenance and repair for operators and many more advances. This volume presents the latest technological innovations in underground design, construction, and operation, and comprehensively discusses developments in ground improvement, simulation, process integration, safety, monitoring, environmental impact, equipment, boring and cutting, personnel training, materials, robotics and more. Thesenew features are the result of a big research project on underground engineering, which has involved many players in the discipline.Written in an accessible style and with a focus on applied engineering, this book is aimed at a readership of engineers, consultants, contractors, operators, researchers, manufacturers, suppliers and clients in the underground engineering business. It may moreover be used as educational material for advanced courses in tunnelling and underground construction."--Provided by publisher.Mining ConstructionTunnelling & Underground EngineeringCivil, Environmental and Geotechnical EngineeringMining engineeringTunnellingUnderground constructionCivil engineeringEnvironmental engineeringGeotechnical engineeringMining ConstructionTunnelling & Underground EngineeringCivil, Environmental and Geotechnical EngineeringMining engineering.Tunnelling.Underground construction.Civil engineering.Environmental engineering.Geotechnical engineering.624.19Beer GernotFlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910796809703321Technology Innovation in Underground Construction3859924UNINA
