composed of sand and clay layers. Piles were used to support the structure during construction, and dewatering undertaken to lower the groundwater level. Grouting was carried out under the structure prior to excavation. Settlement was monitored during excavation of 2 pilot drifts.

Outburst is generally preceded by high gas pressure, which may be the result of change of permeability. Simultaneous measurements have been made of acoustic emission and permeability of a burst-prone sandstone under triaxial compression. Changes in acoustic emission and permeability occur together at the dilatancy stage. The relation is examined from a theoretical viewpoint. Agreement between experimental and theoretical results suggests that high frequency acoustic emission monitoring is a promising method for predicting gas burst. Field measurements from Poland are presented.

902511 Stochastic methods in subsidence problems Litwiniszyn, J Proc International Symposium on Modern Mining Technology, Taian, October 1988 P300-305. Publ Taian: Shandong Institute of Mining and Technology, 1988 Continuum analysis is inadequate to describe the subsidence of a real rock mass over mining workings, which is characterised by random displacements of its elements. Two random walk models are used in a stochastic approach to subsidence prediction. In the first, the walking element does not preserve memory of previous steps, in the second it does. They describe the displacement of the discrete media in the form of parabolic and hyperbolic linear equations, and a nonlinear hyperbolic equation respectively.

Two dimensional finite element analysis of surface subsidence induced by full or partial extraction of a coal seam is presented. Effects of parameters such as linear or nonlinear materials, horizontal and vertical discontinuities, extent and magnitude of roof pulldown, and mining sequence were studied. The 'calibrated' roof pulldown technique did not give valid subsidence profiles for nonlinear materials, due to yield of overburden strata, largely due to tensile fracturing. Horizontal joints or bedding may delaminate, resulting in increased horizontal hydraulic conductivity.

Publ Rotterdam." A A Balkema, 1989 A model originally developed for West Virginia has been refined using additional published data. The original predicts maximum subsidence using parameters of mine geometry, angle of draw, and expansion factors of the deformation zones above the excavation. Subsidence profile is predicted using a negative exponential equation. Refinement involves incorporating relations between overburden properties and angle of draw, plus expansion or bulking factors. The final model requires data from mine geometry and site geology. Its application to 10 sites is illustrated. 902513 In-situ measurements and construction control of an underground excavation beneath the subground structure for a subway construction in Nagoya Nakashima, M; Hirata, A; Iwasaki, Y Proc 2nd International Symposium on Field Measurements in Geomechanics, Kobe, 6-9 April 1987 VI, P473-480.

Beam theory is used to understand the fundamental characteristics of pipeline behaviour. Jointed pipes are considered using a modified transfer matrix method. Factors influencing the magnitude of ground movement are examined,and methods to evaluate pipeline response proposed.

902516 Analysis of linings of parallel hydraulic tunnels constructed in seismic regions Fotieva, N N; Bulychev, N S Proc International Symposium Tunnelling for Water Resources and Power Projects, New Dellu', 19-23 January 1988 VI, P327-330. Publ New Delhi: Oxford and IBH Publishing Co, 1988 Stresses on the linings of tunnel complexes differ from those on an isolated tunnel. A procedure for dynamic analysis for linings in a complex of parallel circular tunnels of different radii is presented. The method determines the most adverse stress state in each radial section of each lining for longitudinal and transverse waves in any direction. The method is illustrated for 5 parallel tunnels in a hydraulic project, and for 3 parallel tunnels.
