    Monitoring and Predicting Railway Subsidence Using InSAR and Time Series Prediction Techniques ZIYI YANG A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Civil Engineering College of Engineering and Physical Sciences The University of Birmingham, UK March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Abstract Improvements in railway capabilities have resulted in heavier axle loads and higher speed operations. Both of these factors increase the dynamic loads on the track. As a result, railway subsidence has become a threat to good railway performance and safe railway operation. Poor infrastructure performance requires more maintenance work, and therefore the life cycle costs of the railway will increase. In order to ensure good performance and reduce life cycle costs, railway subsidence should be monitored and predicted. The author of this thesis provides an approach for railway performance assessment through the monitoring of railway subsidence and prediction of railway subsidence based on a time series of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. The railway is a long and relatively narrow infrastructure, which subsides continuously over a long time period.

  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

  • Planning Committee Report 6 September 2018 REFERENCE NO
    Planning Committee Report 6 September 2018 REFERENCE NO - 18/501312/FULL APPLICATION PROPOSAL Provision of a Controlled Atmosphere Store, concrete hardstanding, irrigation lagoon and associated engineering operations (including land raising/earthworks) and the upgrading of an existing track and access. ADDRESS Swanton Farm Bicknor Road Bicknor ME9 8AT SUMMARY OF REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION The proposal by reason of it size and bulk would harm the character and appearance of the countryside and would have a significant impact on the Kent Downs AONB and so the Borough Council needs to be satisfied that there are material considerations demonstrated to outweigh the harm. The proposal is clearly necessary for agriculture. The building is clustered with other built form and the use of land for workers caravans rather than being ad hoc sporadic development. The scheme includes significant engineering works to give topographical changes for screening purposes that are designed to be as natural in appearance as possible KCC Highways and Transportation advise that the application would not have a material impact upon the safety and operation of the adjoining highway network and that there is no unacceptable impact on highway safety, nor are the residual cumulative impacts on the road network severe. The distance of the local residents from the proposed development combined with the imposition of conditions relating to noise and lighting mitigation means that any impact on residential amenity is not considered harmful enough to warrant refusal of the scheme. The provision of the reservoir benefits the functional need of the business to have access to irrigation water and to manage surface water run-off and provide biodiversity enhancements.
