Mining Engineering
Mining engineering is among the most important aspects of human civilization. From ancient Greece to modern times mining has been used to develop countries, to increase economies and to provide indispensable materials for day to day human activities. In Mining Engineering section, publications related mostly to geotechnical issues for mining are included such as Mine Design, Mine monitoring, Mine support etc.

ESTIMATION OF IN SITU STRENGTH FROM BACK-ANALYSIS OF PIT SLOPE FAILURE (2016)
<p>Using a software package that can be used for either three or two-dimensional (2D) slope stability analyses of the same model we analyse the stability of columns (3D) or slices (2D) overlying a shear failure surface. The failure surface can be any shape, ...
