...Liliana Rybarska-Rusinek; Ewa Rejwer; Alexander Linkov Purpose At present numerical simulation of seismicity, used in mining and hydraulic fracturing practice, is quite time expensive what hampers its combined employing with observed seismicity in real time. The purpose of this paper is to suggest...

...Lei Pang; Lei Liu; Yong Kang; Pengfei Lv Purpose – Gas explosion is one of the most major types of accident in mining projects, and the flame front with high temperature is major hazardous factor induced by this kind of accident. Support engineering provides an available way to solve problems...

..., and particularly fines migration, in cave mines it can be surmised that physical modelling has reached the limit of insight it can provide, simplistic models based on cellular automata ignore many important physical features, and DEM is still computationally intractable for field scale simulations. The latter...

...C.R. Leonardi; D.R.J. Owen; Y.T. Feng Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a novel computational framework based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and discrete element method (DEM) capable of simulating fines migration in three dimensions. Fines migration occurs in a block cave mine...

...) in such plane. The axis of principal stresses σ_{2_B1} forms a δ₁ angle with axis Y₁. Furthermore, this figure also shows radial displacement u_{r_B1} along any radius forming a β angle with reference axis Y₁. Civil engineering Mining Numerical analysis...
