E-Books →Geomechanical Aspects of Abandoned Room and Pillar Mines and Remediation Measures

Geomechanical Aspects of Abandoned Room and Pillar Mines and Remediation Measures addresses the occurrence, prediction, and control of subsidence issues encountered in room and pillar mining, including creep, degradation, and seismic aspects. The book distinguishes itself by:
Presenting a unified treatise on room and pillar mines
Using clear definitions and explanations of fundamental concepts
Considering long-term aspects (creep and degradation), seismic effects, remedial measures, contact types, and remote sensing monitoring techniques
Including physical and numerical modeling
Demonstrating an in-depth view of procedures and solution techniques
This book provides a clear understanding of active and/or abandoned room and pillar mines. It is aimed at academics and engineers with a mining and/or civil engineering background, but it also serves as a reference for undergraduate and graduate students.
