The feasibility study on using TBM for Beishan URL is comprehensively conducted in recent years (Ma et al., 2020). One of key parameters for feasibility study …
The rock mass of the Brucejack area has been divided into eight geotechnical units based on characteristics of the rock mass. The geotechnical units in the WZ, in order of increasing competence, are as follows: The Fault Zone ("WZ FZ") unit includes fault-disturbed rock. This unit is strong (according to the methods of ISRM …
This study was performed to evaluate with laboratory tests the feasibility of using EPB technology in rock masses and the effectiveness of this tunnelling process in terms of soil conditioning, conditioned soil permeability, pressure transmission on the tunnel face, and the ability to extract the material with a screw conveyor. 2.
The study used the estimate by Abbondanza and Souza for the generation of WEEE by the residents of São José dos Campos— approximately 2.8 kt of WEEE per year (Appendix A). The study did not consider large appliances because the studied pre-treatment units do not process these types of WEEE (Balde et al. 2015). …
Step 1: Conduct preliminary analysis. This is where you take a good, hard look at your project to determine whether it's worth pursuing. At this stage, you should also decide if a more detailed feasibility study is necessary. A few key criteria usually come into play during this initial assessment.
This paper systematically examines the feasibility of using ultrasonic vibration excitation for rock breakage and fragmentation; it focuses on the failure …
An effective Feasibility Study is crucial in achieving a goal or decision-making in Project Management and business. It serves as a single and integrated examination to approve a project, startup, or investment by determining if it can be implemented, if it will succeed and if it will be sustainable to operate the project, the …

The average unit operating cost over the LOM are estimated at USD 73.16/t processed. The unit operating costs include contractor quoted costs for open pit of USD 4.45/t open pit mined material and underground mining of USD 50.78/t underground ore mined, which equates to an estimated weighted average LOM mining cost of USD 40.04/t processed.
Geothermal underground utility tunnel (GUUT) Geothermal energy. 1. Introduction. Ground source heat pump (GSHP) system is recognized as an energy-saving technology that uses geothermal energy (e.g., soil, groundwater, surface water, low temperature geothermal water and tail water) for cooling and heating. This system is an …
The ChemCam instrument that will equip the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover uses laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) to remotely identify Martian rocks in the proximity of the rover, and to quantitatively assess their composition.Sample identification is then the first step of the chemical analysis, as a decision aid for monitoring the rover …
