GEOPHYS .RES,VSO,N8,MAR .1975,Pl065-1069. Velocities for both compressional and shear waves in an Alpine gneiss have been determined along its principal fabric directions under dry, saturated and high pressure conditions. The experimental procedure sad results are discussed.

A computer code for isolating naturally occurlmg clusters of data plotted on the unit hemisphere and testing these clusters against a probability distribution that admits elliptical symmetry about its mesa is described. A listing is provided sad an exsm~le output illustrating the delineation and analysis of clusters in fracture orientations measured in a porphyry copper deposit is given.

A relatively inexpensive measuring system for the study of crack propagation phenomena is described. 1022 THIRUMALAI, K Single fracture and fragmentation of brittle solids subjected to thermal shock. Proe.Symp.Defect Interact. Solids, Bangs/ore, India, Ms~ 1972. INDIAN J. TECHNOL,Vll, N10, OCT .1973, P419- h27. A new technique of inducing crushing of rocks and related brittle solids by a single fracture process using thermal shock principles is described. Fragmentation is initiated by tensile thermal stress concentrations of material defects within the interior of the solid. 1023 RUMME ,F Experimental investigations of fracture processes in rocks.

An equivalent permeability value based on a contimuum approach was thought to be capable of providing the basis of explaining flow phenomena in the borahole, but durLug the course of study it became apparent that the continu~n approach would not explain borehole flow behaviour as this type of analysis tends to oversimplify borehole geometry. ~hus the author attempts to explain what constitutes a meaningful permeability value. 1029 ZOBACK, MD BY]~LEE, JD The effect of mlcrocrack dilatancy on the permeability of Westerly granite. 4T,16R. J.GEOPHYS .RES,VSO,N5,FEB .1975,P752-755 • Permeability 8nd volumetric strain were measured under constant confining pressure and pore pressure as a function of increaslng and decreasing differential stress. The results indicate that permeability and dilatant volt,me changes are not unique functicr~ of differential stress, sad permeability changes with differential stress are not uniquely dependant upon dilatant volume changes. Also microcraek dilatancy is physical/~ inadequate to account for dilatm~%cy-fluid diffusion in situ.
