... by Leagold Mining Company. The results have demonstrated that the insertion of groundwater into the model is in fact the most important driving factor influencing slope stability. Moreover, the failures observed in 2015 and 2017 seems to be related to specific discontinuities in which the strength parameters...

...-nailing wall in sand layer. In view of it, experimental research and theoretical analysis are carried out. The strength conditions of holdability of the drilling hole in unsaturated sand was analyzed with the theory of elasticity. Using FLAC3D, simulations of holdability of the drilling hole in the sand...

.... The stability evaluation of the mine roof was carried out by obtaining factor of safety at five locations from the shear strength and the developed stresses. The numerical simulation pointed out that the direction of development of gate road entries played the prime role in the roof failure rather than the high...
