Reviews for Stress Field of the Earth's Crust
Endorsements: "The book thoroughly and convincingly integrates in situ stress, its sources, measurement, and applications, into the fields of geophysics, geology, geomechanics, and geoengineering. It is therefore that I enthusiastically recommend Stress Field of the Earth’s Crust." (Bezalel Haimson, University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA, June 2009) "I think it is a very good text that covers the most important aspects of ... Read more
