Computer Programs for Prediction of Mining Area Deformation with Time Factor Taken into Consideration

摘要

This paper discussed the current of works on computerisation of all problems related to mining subsidence, including the time factor,carried out in the Division of Mining Geodesy of Technical University of Silesia, Poland. First, the formulas implemented in the programs were presented. These formulas considerably increase the description accuracy of final deformations by taking into uncaved strip along extraction rib (extraction margin). They also improve the deformation description of areas located far from the extraction place. Then, the research results aiming to improving the description of deformation with time were introduced. Finally, the Windows based version of the program for the creation of mining geological opinions were presented in the form accepted by Mining Offices of Poland.
