An investigation into the modeling of ground deformations induced by underground mining

The mechanisms of strata deformation due to underground mining were analyzed in an effort to better understand immediate roof behavior and surface displacements. Strata deformation characteristics above longwall and room-and-pillar mines in the eastern U.S. coalfields were evaluated and a numerical...
