Appreciable time dependent deformation occurred in rock stress measurements in a sandstone b y t h e flat~ack and borehole deformatic~ overcorin~ methods.

The boundary integral equation method offers adventages over o t h e r methods o f 3-D stress analysis in that it does not require the specialist equll~nent end skills of 3-]) photoelastlcity, and has lower computational end data preparation costs then the 3-D finite element method. The potential of the method for 3.D stress analysis of underground openings has been d e m o n s t r a t e d u s i n g a program t o determine the distributions of boundery stresses for Tand Y- ~unctic~s of circular t u n n e l s .

Using this method, stresses ere calculated directly f r o m t h e f l u i d P r e s s u r e s n e c e s s a r y t o i n i t i a t e and e x t e n d a fracture away from a borehole. Stress determinatlc~ is r a t h e r insensitive to inhomogeneity or e~Isotropy, is not limited in depth except by the length of the hole, requires simple equipment which is com~srcially available, and cs~ be carried out by unskilled personnel. The method has been worked out theoretical~7 and extensively tested snd verified in the laboratory. A n~®ber of field tests in deep holes rangin~ from 300 to 630Oft have yielded good results.

A set of theoretical equations is developed to predict the stresses end d i s p l a c ~ t s everywhere in a linerb e c k p a c k ~ support system of linearly elastic material. It is assumed that the field stresses are applied to the system after the liner has been placed, and the pressures due to the instability of the rock opening itself are not considered. Theoretical work is applicable to any number of concentric layers of material, thereby enabling one to hsndle underground situatians where bac .kpacking can be placed between liner and rock. Graphs shoving the beneflts end limitations of backpacking are given along with an example ~howing the effects of an ultrasoft layer o f m a t e r i a l s u r r o u n d i r ~ t h e l i n e r .

A coupled stress flow method is described for enal~zing the s t e a d y state effect of in~ectlng fluid into rock systems where the flow is governed by the behaviour of de.f. orn~ble fractures. The method employs two finite el~,~nt techniques, one for fluid flow end the other for s t r e s s snalysis~ s~d a conver~In~ iteration process.
