In Situ Stress Determination by Acoustic Emission Techniques from McArthur River Mine Cores

In this study acoustic emission (AE) techniques were investigated to determine in situ rock stress from rock cores. The stresses were estimated from the AE behaviour and compared with the values calculated using conventional Hollow Inclusion (HI) cells. Stresses in three different directions such as normal to bedding and parallel to the strike and dip of bedding were determined from the rock co...

Future Challenges for Artificial Neural Network Modelling in Geotechnical Engineering

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are a form of artificial intelligence and, since the mid-1990s, ANNbased models have been successfully applied to virtually every problem in geotechnical engineering. This paper briefly examines the areas of geotechnical engineering to which ANNs have been applied, provides a brief overview of the operation of ANN models, and highlights and discusses four impor...
