Impact of mining exploitation on pipelines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Article describes the issues related to the impact of underground mining exploitation on pipelines in Poland. For this purpose there was conducted the impact analysis of horizontal strains, curvatures and tilt changes of the surface on loads and displacements of these objects. Ground deformations can cause pipelines failures and thereby reduce their reliability. In addition, the examples of typical failures of sewage system, water and gas supply systems in mining areas were presented.

Groundwater Inrush Caused by the Fault Reactivation and the Climate Impact in the Mining Gafsa Basin (Southwestern Tunisia)
The Gafsa mining basin district in Southwestern Tunisia is one of the most important producers of phosphate in the world. The exploitation of this district started at the beginning of the twentieth century a few years after the first discovery of this valuable resource. The over-exploitation of groundwater to wash the phosphate caused water-level decline in the main aquifers and the corollaries...
متن کاملEnvironmental impact assessment and sustainability level determination in cement plants (Case study: Shahrood cement plant)
Focusing on environmental impact assessment as a new tool to determine the harmful effects of projects on the environment is very necessary. The establishment of cement plants in Iran is accompanied by huge investments that aim to create jobs and have others economic aspects; this trend is on the rise. However, cement plants contribute to environmental pollutions. Therefore, understanding the e...
متن کاملSpatio-Temporal Variation of Suspended Sediment Concentration at Downstream of a Sand Mine
The growing population led to greater human need to use natural resources such as sand and gravel mines. Direct removal of sands from the bed river leads to increase suspended sediment concentrations in downstream of harvested area and creates other problems viz. filling reservoirs, change in hydraulic characteristics of the channel and environmental damages. However, the range of temporal and ...
متن کاملAlteration dependent physical-mechanical properties of quartz-diorite building stones
The microscopic and geomechanical properties of igneous building stones include the level of alteration, presence of micro cracks, peak strength, porosity, proportion of detrimental minerals, etc. Porosity is reportedly of a devastating impact on the peak strength of igneous rocks. The quartz diorite rock samples in this study were selected from five quarries in Natanz, Iran and subject to micr...
متن کاملA comparison between effects of earthquake and blasting on stability of mine slopes: a case study of Chadormalu open-pit mine
Dynamic slope stability in open-pit mines still remains a challenging task in the computational mining design. Earthquake and blasting are two significant sources of dynamic loads that can cause many damages to open-pit mines in active seismic areas and during exploitation cycles. In this work, the effects of earthquake and blasting on the stability of the NW slope of Chadormalu mine are compar...
