Modelling in Geomechanics Russian Translations Series 107

    This study presents the fundamental principles of the theory of modelling with equivalent materials. Recommendations are given for the computation and development of models as well as planning and conduction of experiments. Experimentation, techniques adopted for measurement of pressure, stress & strain as well as the methods employed for predicting geomechanical processes during mining for minerals.
