An Early-Warning System to Validate the Soil Profile during TBM Tunnelling

Identification of soil condition at the working face of a tunnel boring machine (TBM) is a key factor for the efficiency and safety of TBM tunneling. The paper presents the first application of the Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) method on microtremors induced by a TBM during tunnelling...
