35th U.S. Symposium on Rock Mechanics
35th U.S. Symposium on Rock Mechanics Lake Tahoe June 4-7, 1995
Paper Selection On behalf of the U.S. National Committee for Rock Mechanics, we cordially invite you to attend and participate in the 35th U.S. Symposium on Rock Mechanics. Hosted by the University of Nevada, Reno Mackay School of Mines, the symposium will be held on June 4-7, 1995 in beautiful South Lake Tahoe, California and headquartered at the Embassy Suites Hotel, known for its gracious accommodations. The 35th Symposium is intended to represent the widest possible scope of state-of-the-art research and applications in rock mechanics; there is no additional theme for the symposium. Proceedings of the symposium will be available at registration and both abstracts and papers will be reviewed to ensure a high quality volume. Springtime provides a spectacular opportunity to visit Lake Tahoe and enjoy a wide variety of recreational activities. We have organized an exciting symposium with ample, first-class facilities for private and informal debate on the burning issues in rock mechanics. We hope you will join us for a memorable symposium.
Abstracts should be between 500 and 1000 words. Include figures and tables as appropriate; total length of text, figures, and tables is limited to two pages. Criteria for selection of papers will include originality, technical merit, and clarity of presentation. Abstracts and papers will be reviewed; all contributions must be written in English. Abstracts are due on or before August 26, 1994. Authors will be informed by late September 1994, as to whether or not their abstracts have been accepted. Initial paper selection will be based on reviews of the abstracts. Manuscripts for review will be required on or before October 28, 1994. Final edited and accepted papers will be due, in camera-ready format, by January 15, 1995. The Proceedings volume will be available at the symposium.
Four copies of the abstract should be sent to: U.S. Rock Mechanics Symposium Division of Continuing Education/048 University of Nevada, Reno Reno, NV 89557 U.S.A. (702) 784--4046
Technical Sessions Papers on all aspects of fundamental and applied rock mechanics are welcome, especially on challenges and current issues in Surface and Underground Mining. Topical technical sessions include, but are not limited to: Rock Mechanics of Nuclear Waste Disposal Stress Measurements Fractures in Rock Masses Laboratory Testing of Rock Engineering in Weak Rock Slope Stability Neotectonics Seismicity & Rock Engineering Rock Dynamics: Drilling & Blasting Case Studies; Construction Engineering in Rock In addition, one day of the symposium will include special sessions dedicated to Professor Richard E. Goodman, University of California, Berkeley. Papers dealing with subjects in which Professor Goodman has made major contributions to rock mechanics and rock engineering will be particularly welcome.
Please note that abstracts submitted by fax or E-mail will be neither accepted nor acknowledged. Additional information may be obtained by contacting the symposium organizers Dr. Jaak Daemen Symposium Chair Department of Mining Engineering/173 or
Dr. Richard A. Schultz Symposium Co-Chair Department of Geological Sciences/172 University of Nevada, Reno NV 89557
