• Experimental and numerical studies of tubular concrete structures subjected to blast loading 

      Kristoffersen, Martin; Hauge, Knut Ove; Minoretti, Arianna; Børvik, Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The E39 coastal highway route along the west coast in Norway is envisioned a future without ferries. A submerged floating tube bridge built in concrete has been suggested as a means of crossing wide and deep fjords, and ...
    • On the internal blast loading of submerged floating tunnels in concrete with circular and rectangular cross-sections 

      Minoretti, Arianna; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The Norwegian Public Roads Administration has initiated a large research project on a potential ferry-free coastal highway route E39 on the west coast of Norway. For the wide and deep fjords, a submerged floating tunnel ...
    • Performance Measurement for Infrastructure Project Sustainability 

      Minoretti, Arianna; Lædre, Ola; Wondimu, Paulos Abebe; Johansen, Agnar; Andersen, Bjørn Sørskot (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      From a lean construction perspective, the role of a Public Roads Administration is to identify the value from the client’s point of view and define the processes able to develop the value stream. In the long-run strategy, ...
    • Response validation of a submerged floating tunnel segment 

      Liu, Ting; Hansen Viuff, Thomas; Leira, Bernt Johan; Xiang, Xu; Minoretti, Arianna; Halse, Karl Henning (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Tube segments are the main structural components of submerged floating tunnels (SFTs). Accurately estimating the hydrodynamic properties of these components is of critical importance for the optimization and safe design ...
