The microaccelerometer using a tunnelling current effect concept has the potential of high performance, although it requires slightly complex signal-processing circuit for servo-system. The paddle of micro accelerometer is pulled to have the gap width of about 2nm which almost allows the flow tunnelling current. This paper demonstrates at capacitor of microaccelerometer the use of the coupled thermo-electric analysis for voltage, current, heat flux and Joule heating then tunnelling current flows. Two electrodes are applied to the microaccelerometer producing a unform difference of temperature gradient and electric potential between the paddle and the substrate.

Tunnel portals are often located in areas where the risk of rock fall and/or detachement of rock fragments from rocky slopes is high. In this case it is necessary to design the portals so as to protect the road (i.e. using an artificial tunnel) or to instal structures that are able to intercept falling blocks on the slope. This paper deals with the design problems of these structures and includes a special analysis of net fences which have undergone a remarkable technological improvement over recent years.

A GIS-based tunnelling risk management system (GIS-TURIMS) has been developed in this study, The developed system uses ArcView 8.2 as a basic platform and the built-in interface (VBA) has been used to perform first-order simplified analyses for prediction of tunnelling-induced ground movements and building damage assessment. The main emphasis in this study was to develop a working framework that can be used in the perspective of tunnelling risk management. The developed system is capable of carrying out computationally intensive analyses for ground movement prediction as well as building/utilities damage assessment with fully taking advantage of the GIS technologies. This paper describes the concept and details of the GIS-TURIMS development and implementation

A substantial portion of the cost of a tunnelling project in urban environments is, therefore, devoted to prevent ground movement. Therefore, prediction of ground movements and assessment of risk of damage to adjacent buildings has become an essential part of the planning, design, and construction of a tunnelling project in the urban environments. An internet-based tunnelling-induced ground movements and building damage assessment system (IT-TURIMS) was developed and implemented to Daegu Metro Subway Line tunnel construction project in Korea. This paper describes the concept and implementation of IT-TURIMS. Practical significance of tunnelling risk assessment is also discussed.

Ground movements during tunnelling have the potential for major impact on nearby buildings, utilities and streets. The impacts on buildings are assessed by linking the magnitude of ground loss at the source of ground loss around tunnel to the lateral and vertical displacements on the ground surface, and then to the lateral strain and angular distortion, and resulting damage in the building. To prevent or mitigate the impacts on nearby buildings, it is important to understand the whole mechanism from tunnelling to building damage. This paper discusses tunneling-induced ground movements and their impacts on nearby buildings, including the importance of the soil-structure interactions. In addition, a building damage criterion, which is based on the state of strain, is presented and discussed in detail and the overall damage assessment procedure is provided for the estimation of tunnelling-induced building damage considering the effect of soil-structure interaction.

Recently, epidural tunnelling was introduced for the convenience of keeping a catheter inserted for a long period of time. We had 15 cases in which used epidural tunnelling for the treatment of intractable pain mainly in terminal cancer patients. Epidural puncture with cannulation was carried out in the same technique as used for epidural anesthesia. After the subcutaneous epidural tunnelling was done from the site of the epidural entry to the anterior chest, just under the slim using a tunnelling device, the catheter was threaded through the tunnelling needle at the site of the outlet, was fixed and the tip of the catheter was connected to a filter. Five ml (2 mg) of saline diluted morphine can be given at home as needed when intractable pawn occurs. This long-term treatment of intractable pain by morphine injections through the epidural cannula place by subcutaneous tunnelling, is very convenient for the patient's daily routine and a better alternative in such a situation. Our technique, its advantages and problems were described in this paper.

Objectives : Anterior tunnelling technique consist of anterior cervical fractional interspace decompression without fusion. This method provides sufficient space for adequate neuroforaminal decompression but avoids the need for fusion or fixation. We report early clinical results of 32 cases that underwent anterior tunnelling operation for treatment of cervical radiculopathy. Methods : This method is identical to conventional approach until the exposure of anterior cervical body and bilateral retraction of longus colli is made. A vertical window is then made at the vertebral bodies and disc space lateral to the insertion site of the longus colli. The window is deepened with drilling that follows a tunnelling fashion down to the compressive lesion. We analyzed clinical results from 32 patients who treated between December 1998 and August 2000. Results : Satisfactory results were obtained in 87% of the patients. Two patients required revision surgery. None revealed surgical spinal instability on last follow-up. Conclusion : Anterior tunnelling operation is an acceptable surgical option for the treatment of cervical radiculopathy. Its advantages are short hospitalization, minimal postoperative discomfort, and technical feasibility.

본 연구에서는 3차원 탄-소성 유한차분해석을 통해 기존재하는 단독말뚝, $3{\times}3$및 $5{\times}5$ 군말뚝의 바로 아래 풍화암 지반에서 실시된 터널시공으로 인한 말뚝의 거동을 분석하였다. 수치해석에서는 터널굴착으로 인한 말뚝의 거동을 규명하기 위하여 지반/말뚝의 침하 및 전단응력전이(shear stress transfer) 메커니즘을 심도있게 분석하였다. 터널굴착으로 유발된 지반의 침하와 말뚝-지반 사이 경계면에서의 상대변위 발생으로 인해 말뚝에 작용하는 전단응력 및 축력의 분포가 매우 크게 변화하였다. 계산된 결과에 의하면 터널굴착으로 인해 말뚝의 두부로부터 말뚝길이의 약 80%에 해당되는 위치까지는 상향의 전단응력이 발생하였고, 그 하부에서는 하향의 전단응력이 발생하였다. 이로 인해 말뚝의 축력이 터널의 굴착에 따라 지속적으로 감소하고, 순수한 터널의 시공으로 인하여 말뚝에는 인장력이 발생하였는데 이로 인해 말뚝에는 최대 $0.36P_a$의 인장력이 발생하였다, 여기서 $P_a$는 터널굴착이전에 말뚝두부에 작용하는 설계하중이다. 말뚝의 거동은 경계면에서의 전단강도 발현 정도에 가장 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 군말뚝의 경우 일반적으로 말뚝의 숫자가 증가할수록 터널의 시공에 의해 말뚝의 침하가 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이와는 반대로 말뚝의 축력변화는 군효과(shielding effect)로 인해 단독말뚝의 경우에 비해 작은 것으로 분석되었다. 터널굴착으로 인한 말뚝침하의 증가로 인한 겉보기지지력(apparent pile capacity) 감소는 단독말뚝에 비해 군말뚝에서 두드러지는 것으로 분석되었다.

A series of three-dimensional (3D) parametric finite element analyses have been performed to study the influence of the relative locations of pile tips with regards to the tunnel position on the behaviour of single piles and pile groups to adjacent tunnelling in weathered soil. When the pile tips are inside the influence zone, which considers the relative pile tip location with respect to the tunnel position, tunnelling-induced pile head settlements are larger than those computed from the Greenfield condition. However, when the pile tips are outside the influence zone, a reverse trend is obtained. When the pile tips are inside the influence zone, the tunnelling-induced tensile pile forces mobilised, but when the pile tips are outside the influence zone, compressive pile forces are induced because of tunnelling, depending on the shear stress transfer mechanism at the pile-soil interface. For piles connected to a cap, tensile and compressive forces are mobilised at the top of the centre and side piles, respectively. It has been shown that the increases in the tunnelling-induced pile head settlements have resulted in reductions of the apparent factor of safety up to approximately 43% when the pile tips are inside the influence zone, therefore severely affecting the serviceability of the piles. The pile behaviour, when considering the location of the pile tips with regards to the tunnel, has been analysed in great detail by taking the tunnelling-induced pile head settlements, axial pile forces, apparent factor of safety of the piles and shear transfer mechanism into account.

본 연구는 도심지 천층터널에서 현재까지 해석에서 무시되던 막장면 진동이 주위 구조물에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 지표 침하에 대하여 3차원 수치해석을 이용하여 모델링하였다. 풍화토와 풍화암이 각각 50%의 비율로 구성된 복합지반을 고려하여 TBM 커터헤드에 발생하는 굴착시 토크를 산정하여 이를 시간에 따라 막장면에 재하함으로서 그 영향을 수치해석적으로 관찰하였다. 3차원 유한차분해석법을 이용하여 역학-동역학 연계해석을 통하여 지표침하 발생이력 및 분포도를 산정하였다. 연구결과, 3차원 수치해석을 통하여 막장면 진동하중에 의한 지표침하 발생경향을 성공적으로 모델링할 수 있었으며 최대 침하는 막장면에서 2.5D 후방에서 발생함을 확인하였고, 막장면 진동이 실제 지표침하에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다.
