[ 1 ] - Evaluation of Disc Cutter Performance in Rock Cutting Process Using 3D Finite Element Method

Today, numerical simulation can be used as a suitable tool to measure large quantities that are very expensive and, in some cases, impossible to measure. One of the important issues in predicting rock mass boreability in excavation with full face tunnel boring machines is estimating the discchr('39')s forces for rock cutting. For this purpose, the linear cutting test is  employed. However, limi...
