A fuzzy classification routine for fine-grained soils
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2016)
Soil classification is one of the most important stages in preliminary studies for design applications in geotechnical engineering. The classification of fine-grained soils is mostly determined using Casagrande's plasticity ...
Determination of actual limit angles to the surface and their comparison with the empirical values in the Upper Silesian Basin (Czech Republic)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
This study deals with the determination of the actual limit angles in the long-term formed subsidence basin in the Czech part of the Upper Silesian Basin (the remaining part lays in Poland). Here there was the most extensive ...
Neural computing models for prediction of permeability coefficient of coarse-grained soils
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Correlations are very significant from the earliest days; in some cases, it is essential as it is difficult to measure the amount directly, and in other cases it is desirable to ascertain the results with other tests through ...
THE CRITERION OF THE PRE-QUATERNARY BEDROCK AS IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE FUTURE FOUNDATION ENGINEERING PURPOSES WITHIN THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
(INT SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE SGEM, 2011)
This publication presents the assessment studies of two important characteristics, limiting the utilization of the geological environment for various purposes, especially construction. The first is the character of the ...
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 ...
THE RELATION OF THE SURFACE GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE AND FLOODPLAINS AS IMPORTANT CRITERION FOR FOUNDATION ENGINEERING
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
Dealing with the relation of the surface geological structure and floodplains is a very important scientific topic. The character of the geological structure is significant as these are areas unsuitable for foundation ...
A leaning historical monument formed by underground mining effect: An example from Czech Republic
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
As causes of underground mining activities, subsidences and slope deformations are very important problems in most countries. If the slope deformation or subsidence cannot be effectively controlled then it will cause damages ...
Deformation of slopes as a cause of underground mining activities: three case studies from Ostrava-Karvina coal field (Czech Republic)
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Underground mining activities may potentially play a role on the initiation and reactivation of the slope movements. However, an adequate attention has not yet been paid to these problems; in this study, the possible ...
GIS-based kinematic slope instability and slope mass rating (SMR) maps: application to a railway route in Sivas (Turkey)
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2012)
The paper discusses the use of kinematic stability and slope mass rating (SMR) maps in GIS based on field studies recording the relationships between the bedding/joint geometry relative to the orientation of the free face. ...
