A shear-compression damage model for the simulation of underground mining by block caving
Eric Bonnetier, Sergio Gaete, Alejandro Jofre +5
Block caving is an ore extraction technique used in the copper mines of Chile. It uses gravity to ease the breaking of rocks, and to facilitate the extraction from the mine of the…
