Slope Failure and Monitoring in Mining: A Comprehensive Overview

This coursework delves into slope stability in mining, focusing on safety, economic aspects, and failure mechanisms such as plane, toppling, and wedge failures. It covers analytical methods, including Limit Equilibrium and Finite Difference Method (FDM), supported by global case studies like Bingham Canyon and Yanqianshan Mines. Furthermore, the course explores advanced mitigation techniques, AI-based monitoring technologies, and the role of regulatory frameworks to ensure sustainable mining...
