Analysis of underground excavation in rocks by Tang, Zhu Min

“…Stresses induced in underground excavation may pose significant problem and might eventually lead to the instability and failure of the tunnel. Chapter 3 provides the induced stresses analysis for circular tunnel using Kirsch’s closed form solutions. …”

Development of new excavation productivity functions and risk management framework for deep underground development projects by Chew, Tyng Cheong.

“…It begins with the study and identification of risks and their contributing factors related to the excavation process for a particular tunnel layout. This is followed by determining how two different arrangements of tunnel network (different network sequence) can affect the excavation time and cost in the particular tunnel layout. …”

Electrical and optoelectronic studies of semiconductor nanostructures by Wong, Jen It.

“…It was shown that Fowler-Nordheim (FN) injection from the Si substrate to the oxide and the nc-Si-assisted conductions (e.g., nc-Si-assisted direct tunneling/FN tunneling, Frenkel-Poole emission) contribute to the current conduction depending on both the nc-Si distribution and magnitude of the gate bias. …”
