The US Rock Mechanics Symposium serves as the principal annual gathering of rock mechanics and rock engineering educators and practitioners in the United States.

The Symposium provides opportunities for engineers and scientists to exchange the findings from their research, share emerging technological developments in the field, and discuss current issues and proposed solutions.


The purpose of the symposium was to promote the synthesis of diverse rock mechanics and rock engineering activities in professional societies, academia, industry, and government dealing with mineral and energy resources production and civil engineering, as well as earth and environmental sciences.


The 260 papers presented in these Proceedings show that the field of Rock Mechanics and Engineering is emerging as a major discipline involved in many key technical issues that the world is faced with.

They range from the age-old earthquake prediction and rock burst problems to newer problems, such as nuclear waste disposal and the storage of CO2 under gas hydrate formation to reduce global warming.


The proceedings are published on CD-ROM with full text search facilities allowing quick and simple access to articles of interest.

Extended abstracts are published in a separate hardbound volume to accompany the CD-ROM.
