From Climate Conditions to the Numerical Slope Stability Analysis of Surface Coal Mines

From Climate Conditions to the Numerical Slope Stability Analysis of Surface Coal Mines

A new perspective is presented for evaluating the slope stability of coal and lignite mines due to rainfall. The case of Greek lignite mining areas is employed to illustrate the methodology. Initially, past climatic records of rainfall are documented and analyzed; rainfall intensity varies from ligh...
