Abstract

See full text

Diametral measurement systems can be used to measure and evaluate the diametral variation of cylindrical objects, such as cylindrical rock cores. A diametral measurement system can include two indicator gauges aligned opposite one another for measuring diametral variation as the cylindrical object is rotated. Measurements from the diametral measurement system may be obtained at predetermined intervals through one or more rotations of the cylindrical object. The measurements obtained from diametral measurement systems can be used to evaluate the magnitude and orientation of in-situ stress and strain normal to the rock core axis.
