Publisher Summary The CSIRO hollow inclusion (HI) stress cell is currently one of the most
widely used devices for measurement of in situ rock stresses by the stress relief overcoring …

There is increasing awareness of the significance of the natural in situ rock stress field in
engineering design. Following an explanation of the reason why in situ stress is so …

In situ stress is an important parameter in rock mechanics, but localised measurements of
stress often display significant variability. For improved understanding of in situ matrices that …

The current brief review paper on rock stress measurement methods is very crucial factors in

Over the past 25 years the international nuclear community has carried out extensive
research into the deep geological disposal of nuclear waste in hard rocks. In two cases this …

Abstract The First International Workshop on Scale Effects in Rock Masses was held in
Loen, Norway in 1990. The current state of knowledge on scale effects in rock stress …

In situ stress is an important parameter in rock mechanics, but localised measurements often
display significant variability; for meaningful analyses it is essential that such variability is …

Stress is central to many aspects of rock mechanics, and in the analysis of in situ stress
