Thames tunnel

Richard Trench and Ellis Hillman, London Under London A Subterranean Guide (London John Murray, 1984), pp. 105, 113, 115. The Thames Tunnel was built by Marc Isambard Brunei and since 1869 it has had either railway or underground trains running through it. 

On 11 June a suggestion was put to the MAP by the engineering firm of Sir George Godfrey and Partners Ltd regarding some tunnels near Henley-on-Thames. Godfreys was the sole manufacturer of hydraulic... 

This chapter shows the coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical behavior in the near field by using THAMES that is the finite element simulator originally developed by Ohnishi et al (1985). It was applied to the near field mesh shown as Figure 2. The model domain is corresponding to the shaded area shown in Figure 1. It is assumed that tunnel interval is 10 m and pit interval is 4.4 m following the Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute H12 report (JNC(1999)). 

Resistivity probes can be embedded in concrete. The design shown in Figure 5.6 was installed in the Dartford Tunnels on the River Thames estuary (Broomfield et ai, 2003). Data collected is shown in Figure 5.7.
