With increasing coal mining intensity, the number, length and depth of coal mine roadways
is increasing drastically, the traditional drill-&-blast method and comprehensive mechanized …

Predicting the penetration rate is a complex and challenging task due to the interaction
between the tunnel boring machine (TBM) and the rock mass. Many studies highlight the …

The pile bearing capacity is considered as the most essential factor in designing deep
foundations. Direct determination of this parameter in site is costly and difficult. Hence, this …

Slope stability analysis allows engineers to pinpoint risky areas, study trigger mechanisms
for slope failures, and design slopes with optimal safety and reliability. Before the …

Prediction of ultimate pile bearing capacity with the aid of field experimental results through
artificial intelligence (AI) techniques is one of the most significant and complicated problem …

Complex formation structures lead to significant differences in the failure mechanisms of
hobs. WC-reinforced medium entropy composite coatings exhibit excellent comprehensive …

This study introduces a new model to determine the critical flyrock event in mines. The
flyrock was predicted and optimized using a field database including six parameters and …

The efficiency of tunnel boring machine (TBM) is regarded as a key factor in successfully
undertaking any mechanical tunneling project. In fact, an accurate forecasting of TBM …

The successful use of fly ash (FA) and silica fume (SF) materials has been reported in the
design of concrete samples in the literature. Due to the benefits of using these materials …

With the increasing number of long tunnelling and urban subway constructions, mixed-face
ground conditions are frequently encountered. Rock fragmentation mechanism under disc …
