The present paper mainly deals with a case study of failed dump slope in western coalfield
limited, Nagpur, India. A huge mass of debris flow had happened during the routine the …

Over several decades, the limit equilibrium method has dominated the usage over any other
method for slope stability investigations. General two-dimensional limit equilibrium …

The knowledge of geomechanical properties of rocks is essential for planning and design of
structures in civil, mining, and other allied industries. Direct assessment of these properties …

Designing of a stable overburden disposal slope is vital in large opencast coal mines. Spoil
generated during extraction of coal which is dumped externally requires larger land to …

A gravity core SK-221 recovered from the southeastern Arabian Sea near Laccadive–Chagos
Ridge was examined to identify the sources of detrital clay minerals and to decipher …

The issues concerned with slope stability in the open cast mines have come to forefront in
the mining operations due to increasing pit depth. The cut slope stability has the most …

Open cast mines are the prime source of coal production in India. Due to an increase in coal
demand, deeper surface mines are being planned to ensure better productivity with …

The bearing of slope geometry on the safety factor of a predefined homogeneous slope is
analysed in 3D following the finite element-based strength reduction technique for …

The quartz grains from the sandstone of Jaisalmer, Pariwar and Goru Formations of the
Jaisalmer basin, Rajasthan, India, exhibits a variety of primary and secondary fluid inclusions. …

India is a country rich in coal reserves. Estimation of geo-mechanical properties of the coal
has a direct bearing on the production of the mine. It is directly related to the design and …
