Abstract

This paper discusses improvements to the design of underground mining machines with respect to safety, finite element analysis (FEA), and structure. It illustrates the need to maximize heat and energy use in mining machinery, as shown by research on porous freon steam generators that work better than the old way. The studies also highlight computational modeling in designing structural equipment to overcome operational issues. Additionally, FEA is discussed as an essential resource for modeling complex structures and discovering where failures might occur to bring more reliability and cheaper development. The combination of automation and monitoring systems is also covered and shows how they are reducing the level of risk for humans in high-risk processes and providing safe underground environments through real-time ventilation monitoring. In all, the paper provides a detailed description of how new designs and technologies can be applied to improve the safety and performance of underground mining operations.
