... into the overall mechanical properties of bimrocks an extensive laboratory program was carried out. Artificial bimrocks were fabricated for both direct shear tests and large oedometer tests, covering a wide range of possible block proportions and block orientations. The laboratory tests were accompanied by in-situ...

The relative displacement arising from mine excavation in Torigatayama limestone mine, Japan have been measured by GPS. Both the stress state and Young s modulus of the regional field...
