Due to the increased costs and production pressure in the mining sector, mine management and planning becomes more dependent on data. The amount of operational data increases as a result of data gathering and data sharing technologies being available on mining equipment. Reliable collection, cleaning, integration and reporting of data is essential to ensure that the data generated by different data sources such as production, maintenance, and cost are used effectively in decision-making and management. Data warehousing is a technology developed for the query, analysis, and reporting of historical or real-time data and is utilized in modern mines both in mining operations and mineral processing plants. The continuous increase in the amount, speed, and complexity of generated data creates the suitable environment for big data applications in the mining industry. Besides technological investment, another factor required for the effective use of data is to change the management perspective and to reshape business culture with the aim of decision-making based on data. Integrated data related to mining is required to manage the mine based on key performance criteria definitions and to conduct performance evaluations of employees based on data. This paper introduces the basic data types available in mining and introduces the technology related to data warehousing and big data applications in modern mines.

DEVELOPMENT OF RELIABILITY-BASED MAINTENANCE POLICIES FOR HAUL TRUCKS IN A SURFACE MINE Sarıgül, Mert; Gölbaşı, Onur; Department of Mining Engineering (2022-9-2) The growing production market and the resultant increase in raw material requirements create pressure on mining companies to achieve production at a higher rate by keeping unit operating costs manageable. It is recognized that the performance of mining machinery, maintenance downtime profiles, and operating cost variations are the main parameters effective in the sustainability of machinery fleets. On this basis, developing robust and up-to-date maintenance policies regarding operation dynamics and fleet ma...
Hybrid learning algorithm for intelligent short-term load forecasting Kumluca Topallı, Ayça; Erkmen, İsmet; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003) Short-term load forecasting (STLF) is an important part of the power generation process. For years, it has been achieved by traditional approaches stochastic like time series; but, new methods based on artificial intelligence emerged recently in literature and started to replace the old ones in the industry. In order to follow the latest developments and to have a modern system, it is aimed to make a research on STLF in Turkey, by neural networks. For this purpose, a method is proposed to forecast Turkey̕s ...
Microscopic fuel consumption modelling for haulage trucks using discrete-event simulation Kına, Elif; Gölbaşı, Onur; Department of Mining Engineering (2021-2-5) Mining is one of the machine-intensive sectors, and a vast amount of energy is consumed in many stages of mining operations. Among these operations, haulage systems hold a significant share in energy consumption. At this point, diesel fuel, a form of fossil fuel, is frequently used for haul trucks such that fuel-induced cost becomes a major contributor to the operating cost, especially in surface mining. Fuel consumption also leads to greenhouse gas emissions, in addition to its financial burden. Therefore,...
Optimization of the lubricating oil inventory policy applied in a mining company Şenses, Sena; Gölbaşı, Onur; Bakal, İsmail Serdar (2021-02-01) The mining industry should sustain mass and continuous production with an essential contribution of high-capacity machinery. Therefore, spare parts inventory management is vital in ensuring the intended mining production rate as an integral part of maintenance policies. In this paper, a mixed-integer model is presented to solve a multi-item and multi-supplier spare parts inventory model. This model is addressed to a lubricating oil inventory problem in one of the biggest multi-process mining companies in Tu...
Solar energy potentials in strategically located cities in Nigeria: Review, resource assessment and PV system design Okoye, Chiemeka Onyeka; Taylan, Onur; Baker, Derek Keıth (2016-03-01) Ensuring energy security increasingly requires expanding both yield and resilience of supply through source diversification. In this study, the current energy situation of Nigeria is presented through a detailed literature review. The survey reveals that access to the national grid is limited, and the power delivered to areas classified as urban with grid connection is very unreliable. An initial assessment of the potential utilization of solar based technologies for electricity generation is presented for ...
