in all over the world, mining is considered as a high-risk activity that is pregnant with serious disasters not only for miners, engineers, and other people into it, but also for people who live near the mines. in this article, our main purpose is to examine some major mine disasters and safety in mines and the case study is a coal mine in turkey. safety in mines is one of the most important is...

A daunting mine disaster took place in 13 May 2014 at Soma and 301 men lost their lives. Brief information about the Eynez coal mine and some of the inherent characteristics of the field in terms of their effects on mining are presented. This paper basically concentrates on the factors that played an important role in the occurrence of this disaster. Progress of mine fire, firefighting, and res...

Differential SAR Interferometry (D-InSAR) is an effective tool in monitoring land subsidence because of its greater coverage area and better resolution of height change. A series of Japanese Earth Resources Satallite-1 (JERS-1) images from 1992 to 1998 has been used in monitoring the mine subsidence in the test site of this study, one of the important coal mining areas in China. D-InSAR procedu...

Gas accident has become the main contradiction which constrains the safety production of coal mine. It is one of the import issues in the field of coal mine safety to identify and analyze the dangerous factors that lead gas accidents, and establish an effective early-warming support system of gas in coal mine at present. In view of the characteristics of coal mine gas disaster, a high efficient...

Tests of space-time interaction detect clustering of events in space and time in excess of “any purely spatial or purely temporal clustering” (Kulldorff, 1998, pg. 58). These tests are widely employed in studies of crime (e.g. Knox, 2002; Grubesic and Mack, 2008) and disease (e.g. Petridou et al., 1996; Rogerson, 2001). By simultaneously considering both the spatial and temporal dimensions of t...
