At present in surface mining in Vietnam, the drilling – blasting is still the most popular and effective method for breaking rocks and minerals. However, regarding environmental aspect, the mining method is considerably limited. In blasting process carried out in surface mines, a series of bad impacts on environment are generated such as ground vib...

In this article we'll tackle the control of electric drive with high dynamic, with rapid changes in torque and speed, where the control strategy is FOC (Filed Oriented Control). Such cases were dealt with where speed is measured directly with an encoder, compared with the case of sensorless control, where speed is estimated using a Model References...

In Alberta, Canada, the oil-sands industry plays an important role in the local economy, however the industry is the largest water consumer and has a significant impact on the environment. Only 20% of the available bitumen can be extracted by surface mining, while the rest can be produced by in-situ methods. For in-situ methods, steam is typically...

Recently, collisions between equipment and workers occur frequently on the road in construction and surface mining sites. To prevent such accidents, we developed a smart helmet-based proximity warning system (PWS) that facilitates visual and tactile proximity warnings. In this system, a smart helmet comprising an Arduino Uno board and a camera modu...

Footwall instability is still problematic in many base metal surface mines around the world. The current slope stability analyses by numerical simulation models uses estimated mechanical input parameters to investigate the evolution and failure process of the footwall. However, the estimated mechanical input parameters of the footwall slope in the...

... However, its adverse effects such as ground vibration, airblast overpressure (AOp), and fly rock are also noticeable to the surrounding environment [3][4][5]. In Vietnam, most of the open-pit mines using blasting as the major rock breaking method are facing the challenge to minimize ground vibration and AOp [6][7][8]. ...

Air-blast overpressure (AOp) is one of the undesirable effects caused by blasting operations in open-pit mines. This side effect of blasting can seriously undermine surrounding residential structures and living quality. To control and mitigate this situation, this study using artificial neural networks to predict AOp implemented at Deo Nai open-pit coal mine, Vietnam. A total of 146 events of blasting were recorded, of which 80% (118 observations) was used for training and 20% (28 observations) was used for testing. A resampling technique, namely tenfold cross-validation, was performed with three repeats to increase the accuracy of the predictive models. In this paper, three different types of neural networks were developed to predict AOp including multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP neural nets), Bayesian regularized neural networks (BRNN) and hybrid neural fuzzy inference system (HYFIS). Each type was tested with ten model configurations to discover the best performing ones based on comparing standard metrics, including root-mean-square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination (R2), and a simple ranking method. Eight parameters were considered for these models, including charge per delay, burden, spacing, length of stemming, powder factor, air humidity, and monitoring distance. The results indicated that MLP neural nets model with RMSE = 2.319, R2 = 0.961 on testing datasets and a total ranking of 12 yielded the most accurate prediction over BRNN and HYFIS models.
