Ultrasonic pulse velocity as a rock stress sensor, 1F•ISR. TECTONOPHYSICS• V21, N1-2, JAN. lg74, P39-45. A method of measuring• with nanosecond precision~ the times of flight of ultrasonic pulses over distances of a few metres in rock• in-sltu• has been developed by using a multiple ssmpllng technique. In an ideal situation the measurements are sensitive to changes in rock stress smaller than 0.O1 bar. The method has been used to seek charges in stress in the rock walls of an unierground power station• in which thermal stresses were clearly seen• but~ without a secular trend, so that mechanical stability of the tunnel is implied.

TECK~DNOPHYSIC S,V20• NI-4• 1973, P129-135 • The Research Group for Explosion Seimnology h ~ e investigated the cr~3tal structures of Japan in three profiles. The investigations revealed that the crust is of the continental type. The variation of the crustal structure reflects the topography, especial2y the water depth, so the thinnlng of the crust occurs near the shore where the water dep%2~ increases rapidly.

A need exists for the quantitative testing of renotesensing interpretation results. Var/ous steps are necessary for designing and ad/ninistering interpretation tests, and problems are to be faced at each step. Quantitative interpretation test results permit an unbiased evaluation of remote sensing systems and other specification variables and aid resource managers in deciding where remote-sensing techniques can be used in operational resource surveys o Auth.

The need fQr studying brittle fracture is defined; the main elements of this type of failure are explained; and the mechanism at crack initiation is outlined. Various design and maintenance practices which Can preclude costly downtime caused by unexplained machine failures are proposed. Auth.
