The safety issue of coal mining engineering is very important to coal industry. According to our coal mine enterprises' safe characteristics, this paper analyzed the risk factors of coal mining engineering and studied the safety problem of “humanmachine-environment” system. The risk factors of coal mining engineering are divided to natural geological factors, personnel factors, equipment factor...

This paper is based on the open pit to underground mining practice of Daye Iron Mine. The influence mechanism between high-steep slope and non-pillar sublevel caving method is studied by using physical model test. Firstly, engineering geological properties of the choosing typical research section is analysed and generalized. Secondly, the system of open pit to underground mining is developing a...

The experiences of developing engineering geological models in karst areas for designing and construction purposes prove the necessity of considering at least three basic submodels: sedimentological, structural-tectonic and the weathering one. The research presented here deals with very important and frequently neglected segments in each of the submodels. Therefore, particular attention should ...

The technique of 3D geological modeling (3DGM) is an effective tool for representing complex geological objects. In order to improve the accuracy of geological models applied in numerical simulation methods such as finite elements and finite differences, we can use 3DGM as a modeling tool. To do this, however, 3DGMmust provide the ability to model geological and artificial objects in a unified ...

Successful application of a TBM in a project requires investigating both the ground conditions and the machine and backup system design features. Prediction of the machine performance is very important as it has a big effect on the duration of the project and the costs. In this respect, both penetration rate and advance rate must be estimated. Utilization factor, which depends on the type of op...

The data management of a large geological survey is not an easy task. To efficiently store and manage the huge datasets, a database of geological information on the basis ofMicrosoftAccess has been created. By using the database of geological information, we can make easily and scientifically store andmanage the large geological information.The geological maps—borehole diagrams, the rose diagra...
