As a Geo-structural Engineer deeply involved in the field of tunnel construction and soil mechanics, my recent webinar focused on an area of growing importance: the behavior of NATM (New Austrian Tunneling Method) tunnels in the porous clays of São Paulo. The rapid urbanization globally necessitates the expansion of underground spaces, and São Paulo's unique geotechnical conditions offer a rich study ground. This article, an extension of my webinar, aims to share key insights and research findings with engineering professionals worldwide on this global engineer knowledge-sharing platform.

There are times when engineers would have to design and evaluate bridge structures that fall outside of the AASHTO design guideline. Therefore, when do we define a structure as irregular? How is evaluating an irregular bridge different from evaluating a regular bridge? How to minimize errors during the construction of irregular bridges? We invited midas expert Percy Penafiel, Professional Engineer Specialist from Nevada Department of Transportation, to answer some of the frequently asked questions from our users regarding evaluating irregular bridge structures.
With the help of Tarcisio Barreto Celestino and Antonio Bobet, our MIDAS Expert Osvaldo Paiva Magalhães Vitali took on a new approach using midas GTS NX on tunnels with complex ground and loading conditions. In their recent publication in the Soils and Rocks Journal, we can see how they used the features in midas GTS NX to impose body forces to the 3D finite elements; this is done by providing components of the Cauchy stress tensor.
