Abstract:IRAD GAGE vlbratlng-wlre stressmeters were Installed In the Spent Fuel Facility it the Nevada Test Site to measure the change In In-sltu stress during the Spent Fuel Test-Climax (SFT-C). This paper discusses the results of removing a cylindrical section of rock and gages as a unit through overcorlng, and the subsequent post-test calibrations of the stresstneters In the laboratory. The estimated in-situ stresses based on post test calibration data are quite consistent with those directly measured in nearby hole… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
