TBM performance prediction using PLCM and comparison with TBM field performance parameters
Abstract: Full Scale Linear Cutting Machine (FLCM) is a most popular rock cutting test device for prediction performance parameters of mechanical excavators. LCM test have some disadvantages that requires too much manpower, large blocks of rock samples, which are usually difficult, too expensive, or impossible to obtain. For these reasons a new portable linear rock cutting...

The performance prediction of a TBM in a complex geology in Istanbul and the comparisons with actual values
Abstract: Uskudar-Umraniye–Cekmekoy-Sancaktepe metro line of 20 km having two tubes is recently commissioned to Doğuş Construction Company by Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality authorities. The geology is complex consisting of sandstone, arcosic sandstone mudstone, siltstone, shale, limestone, andesite, and quartzitic conglomerate. The geologic units are frequently cut by...

The Effect of Rock Weathering on the Performance of an EPB TBM in a Complex Geology in Istanbul
Abstract: New Istanbul Airport is being constructed over an old coal field area of 35 km away from the city center in a very complex geology creating several problems during tunnel construction. This paper summarizes the effect of weathering of a sandstone with different degrees of weathering (W1-W2, W3-4 and W5) on the performance of an EPB-TBM during the construction of Metro Tunnels for Istanbul third...

The Effects of TBM Operational Parameters on Excavation Performances in Complex Geology when Driving Twin Tunnels in...
Abstract: The geology of Istanbul is complex, changing frequently from very hard rock formation with different degrees of fracturing to soft ground in a short length. Twin tunnels which were excavated by an EPB-TBMs in Istanbul Metro Projects, gave the opportunity to investigate the effect of geotechnical properties, EPB pressures in virgin and disturbed zones by the excavation, on the performance of a...

The factors affecting the performance of three different TBMs in a complex geology in Istanbul
Abstract: Four hundred kilometers of metro tunnels are expected to be opened in Istanbul in the near future. The geology of Istanbul is complex changing frequently from very hard rock formation to soft ground in a short length. Mahmutbey-Mecidiyekoy metro tunnels, which are currently excavated by three different EPB-TBMs, gave the unique opportunity to investigate the effect of opening ratio and physical...

Unrelieved Spesific Energy Estimation from PLCM and FLCM Linear Rock Cutting Tests and Comparison with Rock Properties
Abstract: Estimation of laboratory specific energy values from mechanical rock properties to predict the efficiency of mechanical miners (tunnel boring machines, roadheaders, continuous miners, shearers, etc.) is the basic aim of this study using laboratory linear rock cutting devices. Specific energy is defined as the amount of energy required to break a unit volume or weight of rock expressed in kWh/m3...
