   Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to develop a simulation tool and a method by which robot trajectories, temperature histories, residual stresses and distortion can be analysed and optimized off-line. This was performed by integrating robot simulation software with finite element analysis software. READ MORE

7. 5. Development of a Methodology for Dynamic Testing of Rock Support : Field Tests and Numerical Analysis

   Author : Shahin Shirzadegan; Erling Nordlund; Ping Zhang; Charlie Chunlin Li; Luleå tekniska universitet; []

   Abstract : The increasing mining depth in the Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara Aktiebolag (LKAB) mine located in the northern part of Sweden leads to higher stress magnitudes, resulting in increased seismic activity and more seismically-induced damage. The effectiveness of various ground support systems under dynamic loading conditions has therefore become of prime interest to LKAB for successful and safe mining at deep levels. READ MORE
