Modelling of Twin Underground Caverns using 3DEC: A Case Study
Abstract: India is poised to create large underground caverns, for storing crude oil and LPG. Presently there are three such facilities. The dependence of the country on Crude oil and petroleum products requires creating large underground caverns, from the strategic point of view. An attempt is made to present a case study of the stability of Twin Caverns driven adjacent to each other in Southern India. The host rock is granitic …

Estimation of Burden Rock Movement using High Speed Videography: Case Study of A Limestone Mine
Abstract: In an opencast mine involving hard rock/deposit excavation, blasting becomes a very important activity. Effective usage of explosive energy to fragment and displace the hard strata results in considerable savings. However, the occurrence of blasts in mines is so rapid that the naked eye cannot detect the process. High speed videography can provide the progress of blast in millisecond time scale needed to analyze the happenings in the blast. An …

Stress Paths in Undrained Triaxial Tests with Anisotropic Consolidation on Marine Sediments of Southern Italy
Abstract: The present document is the first paper of a serial of studies ongoing in geotechnical laboratory testing and in situ testing of marine sediments in the southern Italy coastal area. For this first stage, Undrained triaxial compression tests with anisotropic consolidation (CK0U) have been performed on marine sediments collected in boreholes carried out in the seabed, in a depth of 8 m to 18 m below the seabed. The use …
