  2. 1. Rock Evaluation Using Digital Images and Drill Monitoring Data : Before and after rock blasting

    Author : Sohail Manzoor; Anna Gustafson; Håkan Schunnesson; Daniel Johansson; Philipp Hartlieb; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Measurement while drilling; Photogrammetry; Rock fragmentation; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik; Mining and Rock Engineering;

    Abstract : This research is carried out to better understand the nature of the rock mass and to have a better anticipation of rock fragmentation before blasting the rock mass. Current practices of assessing rock mass usually involve techniques that focus on the surface or outcrop of the rock mass such as scanline surveys, window surveys, photogrammetry and laser scanning etc. READ MORE

  5. 3. Structural behaviour of shotcrete in hard rock tunnels

    Author : Andreas Sjölander; Anders Ansell; Richard Malm; Fredrik Johansson; Eivind Grøv; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shotcrete; structural behaviour; material models; rock support; bond strength; fibre-reinforcement; Concrete Structures; Betongbyggnad;

    Abstract : Tunnels in hard and jointed rock are normally excavated in an arch shape to enable the rock mass to support its weight. Since the beginning of the 1980's, fibre reinforced shotcrete (FRS) in combination with rock bolts have been the dominating support method for hard rock tunnels. READ MORE

  6. 4. Remote Sensing and GIS : Applications for Groundwater Potential Assessment in Eritrea

    Author : Semere Solomon; KTH; []
    Keywords : Remote sensing; Geographic Information Systems; groundwater; geomorphology; Digital elevation model; lithology; hard rock; lineament; structures; hydrogeology; Eritrea;

    Abstract : An integrated approach with remote sensing, GeographicInformation Systems (GIS) and more traditional fieldworktechniques was adopted to assess the groundwater potential inthe central highlands of Eritrea. Digitally enhanced colorcomposites and panchromatic images of Landsat TM and Spot wereinterpreted to produce thematic maps such as lithology andlineaments. READ MORE

  7. 5. Reliability-based design of rock tunnel support

    Author : William Bjureland; Fredrik Johansson; Stefan Larsson; Johan Spross; Lars Rosén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rock engineering; reliability-based design; Eurocode 7; observational method; tunnel engineering; Bergmekanik; sannolikhetsbaserad dimensionering; Eurokod 7; observationsmetoden; tunnelbyggnad; Jord- och bergmekanik; Soil and Rock Mechanics;

    Abstract : Since 2009, design of rock tunnels can be performed in accordance with the Eurocodes, which allows that different design methodologies are applied, such as design by calculation or design using the observational method. To account for uncertainties in design, the Eurocode states that design by calculation should primarily be performed using the partial factor method or reliability-based methods. READ MORE
