<P>Understanding water circulation in rocks represents a very important element to solving many of the problems linked with civil, environmental and mining engineering. This book offers a synthesis of the actual knowledge about the fluid flow in rocks:</P><P>- from the medium characterization and the structural geological survey to the generation of stereonets;</P><P>- the evaluation of the hydrogeological parameters using either deterministic or probabilistic methodologies;</P><P>- the evaluation of the preferential flow direction considering the change of the hydrogeological structures;</P><P>- the methods and models used to simulate the flows.</P><P>Three case studies are provided; water circulation and slope instability, hydrogeological risk linked with tunnelling, and hydrogeological risk linked with road construction.</P>
