Excerpt

It is commonly acknowledged that complex interactions among numerous pre-existing discontinuities determine primarily the potential instability of fractured rocks (Hoek and Bray 1974). This problem is of importance in many geotechnical (mining and slope stability, subsidence induced by drainage into a tunnel, etc.) and reservoir problems (loss of integrity of the reservoir/cap-rock system, estimation of the efficiency of hydraulic stimulation tests, etc.). However, the stability analysis and monitoring of any rock structure face the major problem of determining properties at scales relevant to in situ conditions. …
