Differences in the geotechnical properties of two types of gypsum: alabastrine and porphyritic
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2007)
This study reports an investigation into the physical and mechanical characteristics of fine-grained (alabastrine) and coarse-grained (porphyritic) gypsum from Sivas, Turkey. The geotechnical properties improved as the ...
Conservation of Selected Churches in the Most Region and Karvina Region and Their Significance for Geotourism
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016)
Coal mining in the Czech Republic has left significant marks on the geomorphology of the regions. Simultaneously, it has also affected the lives of people who have lived there for centuries. This article selects two areas, ...
A short review on the surficial impacts of underground mining
(ACADEMIC JOURNALS, 2010)
Subsidence in terrains is one of the most serious geological hazards because they can effect slopes and damage engineering structures, settlement areas, natural lakes, and allow infiltration of contaminant into the ...
THE ROLE OF ENGINEERING-GEOLOGICAL ZONES IN FOUNDATION ENGINEERING
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
The role of engineering-geological conditions in foundation engineering is very important as they define the marginal conditions of the subsoil being capable of bearing a building without possible negative effects on its ...
ANALYSIS OF EARTH PRESSURE AT RETAINING WALLS REINFORCED WITH GEOSYNTHETICS
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2014)
Recent design methods of reinforced retaining walls are based on several approaches at the earth pressure determination. Newer methods are developed to bring the design model closer to real conditions. The monitoring of ...
MORPHOLOGICAL VARIATIONS IN SUBSIDENCE BASIN AND IMPORTANCE FOR LAND USE PLANNING: UNDERMINED KARVINA REGION (CZECH REPUBLIC)
(NORTH UNIV BAIA MARE, 2014)
The study area has been greatly affected by mining activities and other anthropogenic activities since it falls within the so-called Ostrava-Karvina Coal District. Morphological variations in time by temporal variations ...
VERIFICATION OF THE RESULTS OF THE GEOTECANICAL MONITORING USING FINITE ELEMENT METHOD
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2013)
Verification of the results of the geotechnical monitoring using finite element analysis shows that this method allows you to make a sufficiently accurate prediction of the behavior of the structure. The actual modeling ...
NEED FOR A SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION OF SOLID ROCKS AND SOILS IN ENGINEERING GEOLOGY
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
Description of rocks in engineering geology is a specific and different from other geological disciplines. This need results from the necessity to apply of the rock properties in their names and descriptions. For foundation ...
Underground mining hazard map including building site categories in an area affected by underground mining activities
(SPRINGER, 2014)
The objective of the paper is generation of an underground mining hazard map. The method applied to create the map is based on five categories of areas with different characters of underground mining influence making use ...
