N2  - Knowledge of the extent and location of fracture development and the nature of the fracture process is critical to understanding the geomechanical behavior of the rock-mass around zones of excavation, eg Waste Repositories, Underground and
Opencast Mines and Tunnels. This project aims to integrate numerical modelling of rock behaviour with direct validation of fracture architecture from microseismic monitoring to permit dynamic numerical modelling and display using 3D Scientific
Visualisation and Virtual Reality. Geomechanical modelling is an integral part of the design stage of construction of a mine or repository and microseismic monitoring has been carried out at a few sites (e.g. Asfordby Mine, UK, Gordonstone Mine,
Australia). Despite this the two techniques have traditionally remained distinct. The first phase of this project is to examine the feasibility of using microseismic data for the validation of numerical models and the characterisation of rock-mass behaviour
around long-wall coal faces.
