Abstract: In order to find the main direction of energy saving and emission reduction in coal mine areas, this paper established a system dynamic model for energy consumption and environmental pollution produced in coal mining process, and took a typical coal mine as the case to simulate the energy saving and emission reduction in coal mining area. And through the analysis of simulation results...

Monitoring data in coal mine is essentially data stream, and missing coal mine monitoring data is caused by harsh coal mine environment, therefore coal mine safety evaluation can be seen as incomplete labeled data stream classification. The method is proposed for unlabeled data and concept drift in incomplete labeled data stream in this paper that uses semi-supervised learning method based on k...

BACKGROUND In China, over 80% of all work-related deaths in the mining industry occur in coal mines and human factors constitute 85% of the direct causes of coal mine accidents, which indicates that significant shortcomings currently exist in the safety behavior management of Chinese coal mine workers. We aimed to verify the impact of human psychological behavior in coal mine accidents systemat...

This paper studies the application of virtual simulation technology in coal mine, and proposes threedimensional virtual simulation training system for coal mines. This system mainly includes “finger oral” and reduction of accident cases. This paper describes the characteristics and development process of three-dimensional virtual simulation training system which can achieve three-dimensional vi...

Coal-mine owners are required to measure miner exposures to respirable dust so that compliance with Federal health regulations can be monitored. This study analyzes the problem of possible underreporting of dust exposures. Using two statistical approaches, data for three mining occupations in 54 large underground coal mines during 1976-1978 are examined for evidence of underreporting. First, re...

The prerequisite of maintaining an efficient and safe mining operation is the proper design of a mine by considering all aspects. The first step in a coal mine design is a realistic geometrical modelling of the coal seam(s). The structural features such as faults and folding must be reliably implemented in 3D seam models. Upon having a consistent seam model, the attributes such as calorific val...

INTRODUCTION High blood pressure is the cause of almost 13 % of all deaths in the world. DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is "gold standard" in diet recommended by American Society of Hypertension, American Heart Association and Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010 for reduction many CV risk factors including hypertension. Non-pharmacological treatment of hypertension through DAS...

We selected, as the objects of our research, lignite from the Beizao Mine, gas coal from the Caiyuan Mine, coking coal from the Xiqu Mine, and anthracite from the Guhanshan Mine. We used the mercury intrusion method and the low-temperature liquid nitrogen adsorption method to analyze the structure and shape of the coal pores and calculated the fractal dimensions of different aperture segments i...

The potential of coal mine dust to cause disabling pneumoconiosis has long been recognised, but research now suggests that pneumoconiosis is not the only respiratory hazard of coal mining.Over the last 30 years evidence has accumulated that miners also experience an excess of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and this has led the British Government to classify chronic bronchitis and...

RATIONALE Previous studies have shown associations between dust exposure or lung burden and emphysema in coal miners, although the separate contributions of various predictors have not been clearly demonstrated. OBJECTIVES To quantitatively evaluate the relationship between cumulative exposure to respirable coal mine dust, cigarette smoking, and other factors on emphysema severity. METHODS ...
