Energy transition evolution The global energy transition is no longer optional. It is underway, and utilities are leading the charge. Electric utilities are working to manage major shifts, such as rising demand from electric vehicles and expanding data centers, aging...
Key takeaways: Successful implementation of digital twins in underground engineering requires continuous data integration across disciplines. While technology is crucial, the main challenges and opportunities lie within the need for multidiscipline skills and collaborative leadership. Future advancements will integrate AI-enhanced...
Beyond digital models: The digital twin paradigm shift Key takeaways: The industry is moving beyond static models to living digital twins for subsurface projects, which evolve continuously as new data emerges. A case study on Italy’s tunnel network demonstrated a...
Beyond digital models: The digital twin paradigm shift Key takeaways: Geotechnical teams spend almost 20% of their week on data wrangling instead of engineering. Ground-related problems drive the vast majority of tunnel cost overruns and delays. Static geological models are...
When we think of a foundation, we tend to picture what’s visible: the concrete slab under a bridge, the finished pavement of a highway, or the portal of a tunnel cutting into a hillside. These are the physical starting points...
