The nature and characteristics of rock and rock derivatives forming the crust of the earth vary so greatly from place to place that it is impossible to use the same numerical factors to show the productive ability of excavating equipment on different jobs or projects. Factors for each project must be developed individually and applied as the conditions

Directional control-response relationships for mining equipment
Ergonomics, 2010A variety of directional control-response relationships are currently found in mining equipment. Two experiments were conducted in a virtual environment to determine optimal direction control-response relationships in a wide variety of circumstances. Direction errors were measured as a function of control orientation (horizontal or vertical), location (

Accurate Costing of Mining Equipment
2018When performing equipment selection, we can best account for the operating cost by considering the number of hours that the equipment has been utilised. In a surface mine, equipment is often not utilised to full capacity and not accounting for this difference may lead to inferior solutions.

Tracminer: traction‐enhancing mining equipment accessory
Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 1997Explains how the Tracminer project aimed to provide a robust, low cost device to be mounted as an accessory on the motorized wheels of traction machines, in order to increase grip on loose soils. The main goal was to provide a device increasing by 30‐40 per cent the traction capacity of the given machine in soft or marshy soil working conditions.

Estimating Mine Equipment Injury Rates
1991The National Academy Panel report, “Toward Safer Underground Coal Mines,” determined that mine management and labor practices were key determinants of mine-to-mine differences in injury and fatality rates. We study injury rates associated with mine shuttle cars.
