Development of Overcoring Stress Measurement Method Based on Borehole Deformation Taking into Account the Anisotropy and the Error by Assuming Isotropy
Abstract:Overcoring rock stress measurement method has been used in most of projects of constructing large rock caverns for hydro-power plants and oil storage in Japan. This is because the principle of the method is clear and reliable measurement devices have been developed. Overcoring stress measurement method is applicable to both isotropic and anisotropic rocks, but only methods assuming isotropy have been actually available in engineering. Rock is sometimes very anisotropic and the importance of considering anisotr… Show more
