Technológia- és Tudástranszfer Igazgatóság techtransfer@uni-miskolc.hu A well-developed rock mechanics laboratory is in operation at the Institution of Mining and Geotechnical Engineering. Laboratories for computer aided mine design including modeling and valuation of mineral deposits, furthermore minimizing vibration and environmental effects of blasting will be developed in the near future.
Rock mechanical laboratory of University of Miskolc is developed with special equipment for test required by the mining industry according to the appropriate standards. Usually compressive, tensile and bend tests are done for different loading conditions. The equipment is suitable not only for rocks but numerous kinds of construction materials. Linear and hyperbolic failure curves based on our tests can be determined.
Computational tools will be used for 3D modeling of the mineral deposits and mining facilities. This enables spatial demonstration of the numerical database of the deposit and solving numerous problems of mine design. The basic aim is to work out mining plans for mine development, extracting and technological decision making and mine valuation.
Noise and vibration are very common adverse environmental effects of mining especially as a result of increasing urbanized areas. Furthermore a continuously high output of rock mining is required to satisfy construction material demand. Consequently accurate knowledge of seismic conditions is needed for careful and efficient blast design and responsible mine management.
