Objectives and Relevancy: This project supports participation by 15 U.S. scientists and engineers in an international symposium on tunneling for water resources and power projects, to be held in New Delhi January 19-22, 1988. The symposium will cover several topics, including engineering classification of rock mass for tunnelling, studies of hydraulic tunnels in hard rock, weathered and fractured rock and swelling rocks, geometric and hydraulic design of tunnels, evacuation, support and reinforcement, tunnel lining for stability, monitoring and back analysis of tunnels, and case histories. The U.S.-India program supports participation by U.S. scientists and engineers in major international meetings in areas of interest to the two countries. The project meets this criterion. Merit: The topics of the conference are important to the U.S. where new concepts of pumping and power generation result in changing stress distribution in tunnels and lining, creating a need for improved tunneling methods and designs of tunnels. The topics are also important to India where major water and hydroelectric projects have been completed or are under construction including the single largest tunnel ever built. The selection of the U.S. participants will be done by the P.I., and by representatives of the U.S. National Committee on Rock Mechanics. The symposium is likely to increase cooperation between U.S. and Indian scientists and engineers in this field. Funding: None other than this action

目标和相关性：本项目支持15名 美国科学家和工程师在一个国际研讨会上， 水利水电工程隧道施工技术研讨会在北京举行 德里1988年1月19日至22日。 研讨会将涉及几个主题， 包括隧道开挖岩体的工程分类， 硬岩风化破碎水工隧洞研究 岩石和膨胀岩，隧道的几何和水力设计， 疏散、支护和加固、隧道衬砌稳定性、 隧道监测和反分析，以及案例。 的 美国--印度项目支持美国科学家参与， 工程师在重大国际会议上感兴趣的领域， 两国 该项目符合这一标准。 优点：会议的主题对美国很重要， 抽水和发电的新概念改变了 隧道和衬砌中的应力分布，需要 改进隧道施工方法和设计。 话题 对印度也很重要， 已完成或正在建设中，包括单 史上最大隧道 美国参与者的选择 会由私家侦探来做以及美国国家安全委员会的代表 岩石力学委员会。 座谈会有可能增加 美国和印度科学家和工程师在这方面的合作 领域 资金来源：除了这一行动
