    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Energy and Mineral Engineering STUDY OF UTILIZATION FACTOR AND ADVANCE RATE OF HARD ROCK TBMS A Dissertation in Energy and Mineral Engineering by Ebrahim Farrokh 2012 Ebrahim Farrokh Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2013 The dissertation of Ebrahim Farrokh was reviewed and approved* by the following: Jamal Rostami Assistant Professor of Energy and Mineral Engineering Mark S. Klima Department Head, Associate Professor of Mineral Processing and Geo-Environmental Engineering R. Larry Grayson Professor of Energy and Mineral Engineering Antonio Nieto Associate Professor of Energy and Mineral Engineering Prasenjit Basu Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Estimating the penetration rate (PR), utilization (U), and advance rate (AR) is a critical factor in successful selection and application of tunnel boring machines (TBM), but it has remained a challenge to most engineers and contractors. While there have been many studies on accurate prediction of penetration rate with some progress in accounting for various geological parameters, the amount of research performed on TBM utilization and advance rate is still very limited. The primary objective of this research was to develop a comprehensive database of TBM utilization and advance rate from different hard-rock tunneling projects using a TBM to develop a new model for estimation of machine utilization and advance rate through statistical analysis of available machine field performance information and a new rock mass characterization system. For this purpose, information for 300 tunnel projects, including rock properties, TBM specification, TBM operational parameters, and achieved performance were compiled in a database to seek significant correlations between these parameters.

  • 6Th Grade READING LEVEL BOOK LIST
    Required List (Choose One) Featured Novel: Title: Swindle Author: Gordan Korman Reading Level:T/40 Summary: After unscrupulous collector S. Wendell Palamino cons him out of a valuable baseball card, sixth-grader Griffin Bing puts together a band of misfits to break into Palomino's heavily guarded store and steal the card back, planning to use the money to finance his father's failing invention, the SmartPick fruit picker. Title: All Alone in the Universe Author: Lynne Rae Perkins Reading Level: S/40 Summary: When her best friend since the third grade starts acting as though Debbie doesn't exist, Debbie finds out the hard way that life can be a lonesome place. But in the end the heroine of this wryly funny coming-of-age story--a girl who lives in a house covered with stuff that is supposed to look like bricks but is just a fake brick pattern-- discovers that even the hourly tragedies of junior high school can have silver linings, just as a house covered with Insul-Brick can protect a real home. This first novel shines--fun, engrossing, bittersweet, and wonderfully unpredictable. Title: The Alphabet City Ballet Author: Erika Tamar Reading Level: N/30 Summary: Marisol has always loved to dance— to the salsa at family parties, to the boom boxes on Loisada Avenue. Then she wins a scholarship to ballet school and discovers an inspiring new world of beauty and discipline. But when violence erupts in Alphabet City, Marisol’ s dream starts to slip away. To keep dancing she must make heartbreaking choices— perhaps impossible ones.

  • The Silver Chair by C
    73 The Silver Chair by C. S. Lewis Overview Plot Aslan calls Eustace Scrubb and Jill Pole into Narnia to help old King Caspian find his long-lost son, Prince Rilian, who has been kidnapped by an evil enchantress. Conflict Can Jill and Eustace find and save the lost prince? (Man vs. Man, Man vs. Nature) Will the children learn to trust and obey the signs that Aslan has given them? Will they believe what Aslan says about the world, or will they trust the evidence of their senses? (Man vs. Self) Setting Experiment House, the English boarding school; the wildlands of Narnia; Underworld, the domain of the enchantress. Characters Eustace Scrubb and Jill Pole, the English children; Puddleglum, the Narnian Marshwiggle who accompanies them on their quest; Prince Rilian; the witch and her subjects, who inhabit Underworld; Aslan the Lion Theme The Nature of Faith; Appearances vs. Reality Literary Devices Simile; Irony; Foreshadowing; Motif The Silver Chair 74 Questions About Structure: Setting (1) Where does the story happen? The frame for this story is a horrid English boarding school called Experiment House. Co-educational and modern, it is a den of bullies and abusive teachers. The two protagonists, Jill and Eustace, are students trying to survive the term when they are whisked away to Narnia. The central tale is set in the outskirts of Narnia. The story ranges from the wild northern border of Narnia and its marshes, to Ettinsmoor, the country of the giants, and then through Underland. (1.c) Does the story happen in one spot or does it unfold across a wide area? The action unfolds across a wide area due to the nature of the children’s quest.

What is the probable reason some of our ancestors may have entered the “underland” of cave systems? 2. The strange event near the ________________ not only split the once unified population, but scattered those with different skills and abilities. 3. How much of the world’s drinking water comes from limestone (karst) terrains? 4. How much is it estimated to be by 2025? 4 • The Cave Book STUDY GUIDE Discussion Questions 1. What role did caves play for our ancestors? 2. How did the events surrounding the Tower of Babel affect the ancient groups of people who disbursed from that area? Activity 1. Read through the account of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1–9), and discuss issues that would have affected the various people groups when this event occurred.

Box 12692 Gainesville, Florida 32604 THE FLORIDA MARINE TERRACES Changes in sea,'evels during Late Tertiary and Quaternary glaciation were critical to the development of the topography and other geomorphic features of Florida and the Coastal Pla'ins'f th'e south'eastern U. S. A number of cycles of high and low'ea level-stages occur'red"whi'ch hacre..been variously determined, 'described,'and interpreted by different geologists. These sea level changes were either eustatic, without any appreciable changes 'n elevation of the land surfaces, or isostatic, accompanied by changes in elevation or depression of the land. It is generally agreed, however, that these sea level changes were so rapid with respect to any land level changes that the cycles of high and low sea levels were in general eustatic and that land levels have changed very little during the Pliocene and ~ Pleistocene epochs. ~ Each cycle of sea level changes involved both depositional and erosional stages: the gently sloping former sea bottoms, now remaining as terraces, are mainly the results of deposition, and the escarpments or abrupt slopes between these terraces axe mainly erosional features.
