Development and application of a flexible numerical model to evaluate the safety of room-and-pillar mines

Abstract The design of room-and-pillar mines relies on the correct estimation of the safety indicator of the underground structures formed by the excavation of drifts. Thus, the study of the geomechanical behavior is of vital importance. The mathematical models play an important role in the identifi...
