Peter W. Barlow
Peter William Barlow (1 February 1809 – 19 May 1885) was an English civil engineer, particularly associated with railways, bridges (he designed the first Lambeth Bridge, a crossing of the River Thames in London), the design of tunnels and the development of tunnelling techniques. In 1864 he patented a design for a cylindrical tunnelling shield, later developed further by his pupil James Greathead in the construction of a tunnel under the Thames.
==Early life==
He was born at Woolwich, the son of an engineer and mathematician, professor Peter Barlow of the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. He was privately educated, winning a Royal Society of Arts medal in 1824 for his drawing of a transit theodolite; he then became a pupil of civil engineer Henry Robinson Palmer, a founder member of the Institution of Civil Engineers – of which Barlow became an Associate Member in 1826.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.personalia.co.uk/medals/medals.htm )〕 Under Palmer, Barlow worked on the Liverpool and Birmingham Canal and the new London Docks.〔Wikisource:Barlow, Peter William (DNB01)〕
Barlow contributed to the ICE journal, writing on ''The strain to which lock gates are subjected'' in 1836. He also contributed learned papers to the Royal Society.
His brother William Henry Barlow was a noted 19th-century railway engineer.
