APPLICATION OF MODIFIED HOEK-BROWN TRANSITION RELATIONSHIPS FOR ASSESSING STRENGTH AND POST YIELD BEHAVIOUR AT BOTH ENDS OF THE ROCK COMPETENCE SCALE (2008)
In this paper several case examples are presented to illustrate the application of the high-end (spalling) and low-end (weak ground) transition Hoek-Brown relationships proposed by Carter, Diederichs and Carvalho, (2007) as a basis for better defining rock ...

THE 2008 KERSTEN LECTURE- INTEGRATION OF GEOTECHNICAL AND STRUCTURAL DESIGN IN TUNNELING (2008)
<p>This paper describes the methods that can be used to optimize the design of tunnels using a combination of reinforcement and support methods. Particular attention is given to tunnels in very weak rock or soil in which large deformations can occur. Two case ...

EMPIRICAL ESTIMATION OF ROCK MASS MODULUS (2006)
<p>In this paper an analysis of in situ rock mass modulus measurements for a wide range of rock types from China and Taiwan has resulted in two new equations for estimating rock mass deformation modulus.</p>
