- Additional information
- Many developing countries have been investing in infrastructure such as tunnels, especially in heavily populated areas. This research was critically important on how the construction process of the tunnel could affect the seismic hazard of the aboveground area. It was funded by EPSRC (EP/N03435X/1), and involved Universityies of Greenwich, Dundee, Leeds and ETH (Switzerland). The research outcome will inform the design and monitoring policies of the Ministry of Public Works in Chile. This research led to further research proposals by the involved partners.
