Wear Prediction and Mechanism Study of Tunnel Boring Machine Disc Cutter Breaking in Hard–Soft Rock Considering Thermal Effect

The TBM disc cutter cuts soft–hard composite strata during shield construction, and the cutter–rock cutting process generates high temperatures and severe wear. In this research, different strength types of rocks are taken as objects to analyse the interacting rock-breaking force and cutter motion m...
