8/1/1998 - Conference papersThis paper examines the operating principles of hydraulic cylinders and discusses issues pertaining to setting loads, support stiffness, yielding behavior, errors in assessing support loading, and hydraulic failure mechanisms and how to detect them.
-
8/1/1998 - Conference papersThis paper presents the results of a case study conducted in a two-entry gateroad in a coal mine where excessive roof deformation and bolt loading resulted in failure of many roof supports.
