The objects of research were forest plantations, passed through renovation rubles in the Arkhangelsk forestry region. Trial plots established spruce plantations (bilberry and sphagnum forest), on fresh haulage, apiary, old haulage after felling more than 30 years ago. Based results research, a model was built, with help which it is consistently assessed during course what happens to stand cutti...

In this paper the Kamat-Riley (K-R) event-based Monte Carlo simulation method was used for reliability analysis of longwall shearer machine. Shearer machine consists of six subsystems; water, haulage, electrical, hydraulic, cutting arms and cable systems in a series network configuration. A shearer in the Tabas coal mine was selected as case study and its all failure data were collected and use...

Collection of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) accounts for a significant proportion of most municipal budgets, and has drawn some degree of researchers‟ interest. This study was conducted in Ota, Southwest Nigeria, to explore the use of Visual basic program as an innovative tool to select the most economic haulage system among three systems found in literature (conventional-, modified- and Stationa...

Truck-Shovel (TS) systems are the most common mining system currently used in large surface mines. They offer high productivity combined with flexibility to be rapidly relocated and adjust load/haul capacity capital expenditure according market conditions. As world moves decarbonise as part of transition net zero emission targets, it is relevant examine options for decarbonising haulage In-Pit ...

That is the daily challenge for the operators of the giant dump trucks used in surface mines. As a result, each year, an average of 20 accidents and three fatalities occur involving collisions between a piece of surface mining haulage equipment and either a smaller vehicle, a worker, or some other object. Another 21 accidents occur and three mining equipment operators are killed each year when ...
