1059 WORTHINGTON, PF Procedures for the opt1~im geophysical methods in grotuadwater development programs. 27R. BULL .ASSOC. ~ G N G .GEOL,VI2, N1,1975, P23-38. The pertinent geophysical techniques sad the different hydro-geological regimes to which these may be applied are outlined. Geophysical strategies for the investigation of aquifers of fissured sad unfissured systems are suggested. The suggested procedures are supported and exemplified by selected hydrogeophysical case histories.

TH~RASPACE INC. ,ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND, SEPT .1974, 21P. Additional laboratory tests were conducted with a high pressure w~ter cannon which had previously been developed for rock tunneling experiments. The experlments were designed to test water Jet velocity when a modified nozzle using air instead of a vacuum - was used, however experimental difficulties prevented good results being obtained. An improved Jet noise suppressor was also tested. -

Tunnels 1067 GAJTANI,M Model investigati(~%s of failure of ttmnel intersections. Thesis. 34F,3T,34R. MSC THES IS. IMP .COLL. SC I.TECHNoL .UNIV. LONDON, 1974, 87P. A review of similitude and the theory of models is followed by a discussion of the problems associated with the design and use of different models. Stress in rock and factors influencing the state of stress are discussed and stresses around the TEE intersection between two equal diameter tunnels are given in some detail. The construction of moulds and preparation of model materials are also discussed. lO68 LOGT~S, G qhree.dimensional deformation during superficial tunnel excavations. 48F,3T,66R. INST. BOD~4ECH. FEISMECH. UNIV~S ITAT FR IDERIC I~A, KABISRUHE, N59,1974,103P. Displacements occurlng around a near-surface tunnel tube during the process of excavation were observed in a three dimensional model made of transparent gelatin, and lined with a thin walled aluminlum tube. Thin lines of black ink were used as markers and deformation was recorded photographically. lO69 ANONYMOUS Measures to repair d a m ~ e at Tsrbela after tunnel collapse. IF.
