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 ...
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 ...
Effect of surface void percentage (SVP) on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of porous rocks
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2018)
In this paper, the effect of areal void size on unconfined compressive strength (UCS) depending on the core diameter is investigated and discussed in terms of obtaining more accurate and reliable strength values relating ...
Properties of the Loess Sediments in Ostrava Region (Czech Republic) and Comparison with Some Other Loess Sediments
(HINDAWI PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2013)
This study deals with a methodical identification and evaluation of physical-mechanical properties of one genetic type of geological structure. This is represented by an engineering-geological zone of eolian sediments, ...
Monitoring of heat transmission from buildings into geological environment and evaluation of soil deformation consequences in foundation engineering
(SPRINGER, 2014)
In engineering geology a number of factors affecting foundation conditions are taken into consideration during engineering-geological investigations. This article deals with the factor of heat sourced from a structure ...
A case study assessing thermal activity at a significant geotourism locality of Ema coal tailing dumps in the mining landscape of Ostrava, Czech Republic
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2017)
The study focuses on the assessment of surface area thermal activity measured by air thermal photography at the significant geotourism locality of Ema coal tailing dumps. Ema has become a geotourism post-mining landmark ...
An assessment on the use of bivariate, multivariate and soft computing techniques for collapse susceptibility in GIS environ
(INDIAN ACAD SCIENCES, 2013)
The paper presented herein compares and discusses the use of bivariate, multivariate and soft computing techniques for collapse susceptibility modelling. Conditional probability (CP), logistic regression (LR) and artificial ...
Influence of the Soil Genesis on Physical and Mechanical Properties
(HINDAWI PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 2013)
The paper deals with the influence of soil genesis on the physical-mechanical properties. The presented case study was conducted in the region of the Ostrava Basin where there is a varied genetic composition of the Quaternary ...
Monitoring and analysis of burning in coal tailing dumps: a case study from the Czech Republic
(SPRINGER, 2015)
The tailings are significant geological environments in mining and industrial regions. They represent special engineering-geological zones of anthropogenic sediments that require specific engineering-geological investigation. ...
An indicative method for determination of the most hazardous changes in slopes of the subsidence basins in underground coal mining area in Ostrava (Czech Republic)
(SPRINGER, 2013)
Considering growing population and decreasing mineral resource reserves, the issue of undermining has been and shall remain very topical. This study aims to identify the mutual connections between mined out panels of a ...
