Embodied Energy and Lifecycle Costs: Questioning (Mis)conceptions about Underground Construction

Philippe Thalmann, Aurèle Parriaux, Michael Robert Doyle

In the construction community, underground construction is perceived as being significantly more costly and more energy-consuming than comparable surface construction. Although the literature is scarce, studies that have attempted to quantify this differen ...

Données nouvelles sur la géologie des collines de Chiètres

Aurèle Parriaux

La géologie des collines de Chiètres et de l’ancien sillon glaciaire du Rhône a été révisée. Les excavations de la couverture meuble de la carrière de Sous-Vent ont révélé une succession de dépôts où l’on identifie les débris de deux éboulements majeurs, d ...

Multiple resources and their sustainable development in Urban Underground Space

Aurèle Parriaux, Huanqing Li, Chao Liu

Traffic congestion and ground space scarcity are increasing the need to find more space in the urban underground. The demand-driven "top-down" planning of Urban Underground Space (UUS) is common worldwide. As natural resource, the endowments of UUS are dif ...

Underground Potential for Urban Sustainability: Mapping Resources and Their Interactions with the Deep City Method

Philippe Thalmann, Aurèle Parriaux, Michael Robert Doyle

In the process of urban growth, the underground is often only addressed once all surface alternatives have been exhausted. Experience shows that this can lead to unforeseen conflicts (e.g., subsidence, groundwater pollution) and to lost opportunities (e.g. ...

Geotypen : ein neues Konzept zur Optimierung geologischer Informationen für die Raumplanung

Aurèle Parriaux, Pascal Turberg

When we have to valorise the geological information for land planning or engineering applications, it is difficult to integrate the large complexity of the maps of the Swiss Geological Atlas at the scale of 1:25'000. The heterogeneity of the legends betwee ...

An Integrated Planning Concept for the Emerging Underground Urbanism: Deep City Method Part 1 Concept, process and application

Philippe Thalmann, Aurèle Parriaux, Huanqing Li

Four underground resources have been seen as having a long-term potential to support sustainable urban development: underground space, groundwater, geomaterials and geothermal energy. Utilization of these resources proposes a new paradigm of economic devel ...

An X-ray computed tomography-based index to characterize the quality of cataclastic carbonate rock samples

Aurèle Parriaux, Pascal Turberg, Vincent Labiouse, Reto Meuli, Pierre Guillaume Christe

X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) can reconstruct, in a nondestructive way and in three-dimension, the distribution of densities within opaque materials. Consequently, it provides an effective possibility to characterize the inner content of rock core sampl ...
