INTERNATIONAL COLLOQIUM ON PHYSICAL GEOMECHANICAL MODELS - BERGAMO - ITALY - MARCH 29/30 1979

The following papers were presented at the colloquium: (1) a geomechanical model to investigate the effect of dispersed attitude of rough jointing (John, KW and Raustentrauch, R); (2) Very large span openings at shallow depth; Deformation magnitudes from jointed models and fe analysis (Barton, N and Hansteen, H); (3) Measurement methodology and tests on models for a tunnel situated in a discontinuous medium (Langof, Z); (4) A new development in the base-friction technique (Egger, P); (5) Techniques and materials for modelling a tunnel driven at moderate depth (Sauer, G and Fornaro, M); (6) Bidimensional geomechanical models of large underground openings (Rossi, PP); (7) Displacements of an arch-gravity dam, model/structure comparison (Gallico, A); (8) High density and low strength materials for geomechanical models (Da silveira, AF, Azevedo, MC, Esteves Ferreira, MJ and Pereira da Costa, CA); (9) Geomechanical models of dam foundations (Fumagalli, E); (10) Mechanical models as compared with mathematical models (Alvarez Martinez, A); (11) Model studies of the bearing behaviour of dams with an interior membrane seal; (12) The study of rock pile dams with problems: Physical models and tests on granular materials (Rossi, PP); (13) Importance of model studies in geomechanics (Mueller, L, Reik, G, Fecker, E and Sharma, B); (14) Model concept for the design of structures in jointed rock (Wittke, W); (15) Representation of the Softening behaviour of rocks in geomechanical models; (16) Modelling materials for geomechanical models (Fumagalli, E); (17) A simple dynamic model of rockfall: Some theoretical principles and model and field experiments (Statham, I); (18) Model investigation of slide dynamics (Nonveiller, E); (19) The model of S Martino (Camponuovo, GF).
