An investigation into the mechanisms of time dependent deformation of hard rocks
The testing undertaken for this dissertation is intended to help quantify the various time-dependant deformation processes around typical deep level hard rock tabular excavations. Three mechanisms were investigated and two different hard rock types, Ventersdorp Lava and Elsburg Quartzite were used....
