Advancing rockburst mitigation techniques in mines

Summary

The study consisted of two streams, namely the research and the software development. The software mXrap (previously MS-RAP) served as a tool for technological transfer and its functionality greatly enhanced.

The research stream, the focus of this report, includes the following: seismic hazard assessment, analysis of mining-induced seismic responses, investigation into cave tracking and support performance under dynamic loading.
