8/1/2006 - Conference papersThis paper discusses progress in the science of coal pillar design over the past 25 years and some of the current research needs.
-
8/1/2006 - Conference papersThis paper explores the history of longwall shield design over the past 25 years. It also addresses questions such as whether two-legged designs are better than four-legged shields and whether setting pressures should be set as high as possible.

6/1/2006 - Conference papersThis paper presents the results of a study into the ground response around tailgate entries using numerical models. The potential exists to develop site-specific tailgate design curves by combining model results with field observations.
-
10/1/2005 - Conference papersThis paper provides an overview of the support design and application philosophy in the United States.
-
8/1/2005 - Conference papersThe conclusion drawn from this study was that standing supports do not have sufficient capacity to control main roof or floor loading or prevent the resulting convergence of the tailgate entry.
-
8/1/2005 - Conference papersThe objective of this is paper is to review the current state of knowledge and practice in highwall mining.
-
8/1/2005 - Conference papersThis paper summarises the results of a research project whose goal was to provide the Australian coal industry with a rib support design methodology and software tool that could be utilised by suitably qualified colliery staff.
-
3/1/2005 - Conference papersA package of bench design programs is being publicly released by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). These programs are designed to provide a probabilistic estimate of the likelihood that various widths of catch bench will...
