Stochastic Non-Linear Optimization of Equipment Productivity in Multi-Seam Formations

The deployment of large mining equipment has resulted in low-cost, high efficiency and bulk production operations in surface mines. In strip coal mining operations, these economies of scale favor increasingly the use of draglines, shovels, dozers and other support equipment for overburden and coal extraction. However, the selection of particular eq... Read More»
