This journal is concerned with original research, new developments, site measurements and case studies in rock mechanics and rock engineering.
It provides an international forum for the publication of high quality papers on the subject of rock mechanics and the application of
rock mechanics principles and techniques to mining and civil engineering projects built on or in rock masses. These projects include
slopes, open-pit mines, quarries, shafts, tunnels, caverns, underground mines, metro systems, dams and hydro-electric stations, geothermal
energy, petroleum engineering, and radioactive waste disposal. Papers are welcomed on all relevant topics and especially on theoretical
developments, analytical methods, numerical methods, rock testing, site investigation, and case studies.
The Hemispherical Projection
Sphere
The Hemispherical Projection Sphere will assist
you in working out hemispherical projection techniques. The link below shows the hemispherical projection net which may be copied as
required, although care must be taken to ensure that any copy is perfectly circular - non-circular nets cannot be used. For those readers
unfamiliar with hemispherical projection techniques as used in rock mechanics, an introduction to their use may be found in Appendix
B of Engineering Rock Mechanics 1 available at:
