Tunnels and Underground Cities: Engineering and Innovation meet
Archaeology, Architecture and Art. Volume 11: Urban Tunnels - Part
1 contains the contributions presented in the eponymous Technical
Session during the World Tunnel Congress 2019 (Naples, Italy, 3-9
May 2019). The use of underground space is continuing to grow, due
to global urbanization, public demand for efficient transportation,
and energy saving, production and distribution. The growing need
for space at ground level, along with its continuous value increase
and the challenges of energy saving and achieving sustainable
development objectives, demand greater and better use of the
underground space to ensure that it supports sustainable, resilient
and more liveable cities. The contributions cover a wide range of
topics, from geomechanical behavior evaluation, evaluation of
long-term tunnel behaviour, via monitoring excavation-related
ground deformation to risk management for tunneling-induced
deformations. The book is a valuable reference text for tunnelling
specialists, owners, engineers, archaeologists, architects, artists
and others involved in underground planning, design and building
around the world, and for academics who are interested in
underground constructions and geotechnics.
