In the month of May (22nd to 28th), I had the opportunity to attend the World Tunnel Congress in Dubrovnik, Croatia. This was my first World Tunnel Congress event and I had the opportunity to meet many friends from Italy, India, Germany and Singapore.

I had the opportunity to present my work titled "Probabilistic estimation of operating pressure for TBM Tunnelling". This paper basically presents probabilistic estimation of TBM operating pressure using Monte Carlo simulations as a part of design routine. This probabilistic approach would assist in risk assessment and will result in realistic face pressure values and thus avoid the operational disadvantages of over conservatively high face pressure values.

I also had the opportunity to get in touch with fellow ITA-YM members and was elected as the steering committee member of ITA-YM for a tenure of 2 years.
