... strain energy stored around the closed microcracks. The deformational anisotropy was indicated by the preferred orientation of stress-induced open microcracks. 1 INTRODUCTION: The Physical behavior of rock under triaxial stress state is essentially important for the underground mining...

... in stresses and conversion of potential strain energy to seismic energy the Multiple reflections of seismic waves which can lead to local energy and stress magnification. Although experience is very valuable the need is pressing to study this complicated problem from more basic theories. This report...
