        This prufrock thing pure vaporware. Elon Musk has no experience in mechanical engineering yet alone in tunnel boring machines. You may hire some experien...this and that on a Lovat TBM. But inventing a tunnel boring machine 1...

          ' thanks to the Japanese engineers' contributions to tunnel boring machine technology'? Are you serious? The last time I checked it was the USA a.k.a Robbins, who invented TBM and took it further than anyone else.

              Yes it is true that whenever an article has "Elon Musk" in it, the guy gets the benefit of the doubt even for radical things like 10 times faster boring tunnel boring machine....

                Very interesting. I did not think navigation in tunneling would be a complex matter. But then, I never worked in any tunnel with such tight curves. Very creative solution to say the least,

                  Comment on "NAT 2024 - UCA North American Tunneling Conference"

                  The real deal. Unlike other tunnel congresses, NAT is not dominated by academia, but presents real world tunneling case studies across the industry.

                    I don't think Glasgow metro is going to enlarge its tunnels but since it was mentioned: Tunnel Enlargement Gantry TEP 8400  from the German company GTA https://gta.eu/en/tunneling/tunnel-enlargement-gantry-tep...

                      Swiss know a thing or two over tunneling...

                        Both Levent and Tim are doyens of the tunneling. They do not get old. They just better and mature.
