Development of a new methodology for path optimization of underground mine haul roads using evolutionary algorithms
Yardımcı, Ahmet Güneş; Karpuz, Celal; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018)
The main haul road serves as an access route for men, equipment, transportation of extracted ore and ventilation air in underground mines. Initial capital investment and operating cost parameters are affected by the haul road path. However, the most common method to design a main haul road is to rely on the provisions of skilled mine design experts. Contrary to the simple underground mine layouts, determination of the optimum path without violating navigability constraints in complex underground networks ma...
Development of a ventilation model for the g field of Çayırhan coal mine
İnan, Cem; Güyagüler, Tevfik; Department of Mining Engineering (2005)
Ventilation problems raised with the beginning of underground mining. In underground mining, to provide safe and healthy working conditions, ventilation should be designed properly. Especially in the planning stage of the project, to design ventilation properly is very important. The latest upgrade of the popular ventilation simulation program, known as VnetPC 2000, has been applied for the ventilation design. In this study simulation is conducted to both auxiliary and main ventilation at Çayirhan G Field. ...
Development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based topology optimization codes in OpenFOAM
Şenol, Niyazi; Eraslan, Ahmet Nedim; Akay, Hasan Umur; Department of Engineering Sciences (2018)
Optimization has been commonly used by engineers in industry to design and fabricate products efficiently, since it has a great impact on the performance. The recent decades have witnessed an important amount of work in design optimization in structural mechanics. However, topology optimization is less commonly used in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and thermal-fluid flow problems, especially this thesis aimed to improve its effects on those areas. This work is also dedicated to develop open source codes f...
Developing a coal transportation cost estimation model for Turkish coal enterprises
Demir, Ebru; Karpuz, Celal; Department of Mining Engineering (2009)
Transportation cost is an important item in total operating cost of an open pit mining operations. In some projects, the transportation cost may reach to 60 % of total operating cost. Turkish Coal Enterprises (TKİ) delivers the demanded coal to all cities of Turkey within the context of Prime Ministry Social Solidarity and Aid Fund. The project duration, demanded coal amount whether the coal is needed as packed or unpacked form are determined by local governors. In this study, a model is developed through s...
Development of specimen geometries for mode i fracture toughness testing with disc type rock specimens
Alkılıçgil, Çiğdem; Tutluoğlu, Levent; Department of Mining Engineering (2010)
Flattened Brazilian disc and modified ring test methods are attractive methods being simpler compared to the other mode I fracture toughness testing methods on rock cores. The aim of this study is to improve these simple methods to yield fracture toughness values that are close to the ones determined by the suggested methods. ABAQUS finite element program was used to determine stress intensity factors of models with various dimensions. Comparing fracture toughness to the results obtained by semicircular ben...
