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 ...
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 ...
Utilization of an underground mining evaluation map incorporating the effect of landslides and surface flooding for land-use purpose
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2014)
A number of problems related to land use and foundations of new structures are encountered in underground mining areas. Potential suitability and/or unsuitability of lands for new structures must be considered in areas ...
The effect of different types of water on the swelling behaviour of expansive clays
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2014)
In the design of foundations of structures, especially light buildings, on clayey soils, the main soil behaviours to be considered are swelling properties and surface heave. Therefore, determination of swelling properties ...
Design and construction of knowledge ontology for thematic cartography domain
(GEOLOGICAL SOC KOREA, 2014)
The paper deals with ontology modelling for the purpose of design and creating of knowledge ontology for thematic cartography. The prepared ontology represents a database of selected declarative cartographical knowledge ...
Unique documentation, analysis of origin and development of an undrained depression in a subsidence basin caused by underground coal mining (Kozinec, Czech Republic)
(SPRINGER, 2014)
This article aims to explain and demonstrate the origin and development of a subsidence basin caused by coal mining as well as to point out important aspects of this phenomenon in engineering geology. Engineering geology ...
Relevance of building site categories implementation into the land use plan in underground mining area in the region of Petrvald (Czech Republic)
(SPRINGER, 2014)
Deep mining of mineral resources causes extensive changes in rock environment and ground morphology and must be considered in the land use planning. Subsidence as a result of underground mining activities in terrains is ...
Use of the core strangle test for determining strength anisotropy of rocks
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2014)
The usefulness of the core strangle test (CST) in determination of strength anisotropy and its accuracy compared with other indirect methods is evaluated. As a result of this study, higher accuracy was obtained, and CST ...
Potential pollution risk in natural environment of golf courses: an example from Rusovce (Slovakia)
(SPRINGER, 2014)
The objective of the article presented herein is to highlight the specific issue of the protection of water sources in the vicinity of golf courses. Currently we have experienced the construction of a large number of golf ...
