Stresses and deformations in a h o l l ~ cylindrical inclusion anl t h e st~rounling semi-infinite medium are studied using equations derived from the theory of elasticity. Comparisons to field and laboratory measurements verify that these equations accurately predict the measured values for a wide variety of cases.

Shear wave propagation is discussed, both experimentally and thearetically, in the following rock types: dunites, basalts, lunar brecclas, and granites. It is indicated how labaratory data may be applied to the interpretation of the anisotropy observed in the Earth's crust and upper mantle. The possibility of elastic anisotropy in the Moon is also discussed. 1118 VNUTSEVICH, IL KORNEV, GN SUKHODREEV, VM Rheologlcal model of rock deformed by explosion cm by impact. In Russian; Textbook.

GECTECHNIQUE, V24, NI, MAR. 1974, P39-44. Some aspects of the transmission electron microscopy of the structure of clays are described. The freezedrying of samples, the making of carbon replicas of surfaces and particles, and the printing of ~mierographs from. positives rather than negatives are discussed.

GEOF#JLORATION, VII, N3, SEPT. 1973, P151-170. Tabers~ory investigations of the Bunter Sandstsne from the f'ylde area of L%ncashire have furnished msrked correlations betwe~n porosity, formation resistivity factor and seismic velocity. The dependence of inter~janulsr permeability upon these three quantities is less well defined but nevertheless highly signific-mnt. It is concluded that the relationships have a~ important ~se in geophysical studies of these aquifers, and some practical aspects of teir application are discussed. Auth.

GEOTECHNIQUE, V24, NI, MAR. 1974, PI01-106. The ~riter presents results which he conclude's suggest that the properties of allophar~ and halloysite soils cannot be explained by some particular structure as Wallace has proposed. They must be attributed to the unusual characteristics of the clay minerals themselves.
