Ensemble Learning Model on Artificial Neural Network-Backpropagation (ANN-BP) Architecture for Coal Pillar Stability Classification [PDF]
Pillars are important structural units used to ensure mining safety in underground hard rock mines. Therefore, precise predictions regarding the stability of underground pillars are required. One common index that is often used to assess pillar stability is the Safety Factor (SF).

Increasing cavity temperature causes an exponential increase in thermal stress and the number of created cracks. Therefore, UCG cavity growth escalates with an increasing cavity temperature ABSTRACT The mechanism of cavity growth in a UCG process is mainly dependent on the presence of fractures and microcracks in the coal seam.

Protocol for a Study of the Effect of Surface Mining in Central Appalachia on Adverse Birth Outcomes [PDF]
Surface mining has become a major method of coal mining in Central Appalachia alongside the traditional underground mining. Concerns have been raised about the health effects of this surface mining, particularly mountaintop removal mining where coal is mined upon steep mountaintops by removing the mountaintop through clearcutting forests and explosives.

UPSLAM: Union of Panoramas SLAM [PDF]
We present an empirical investigation of a new mapping system based on a graph of panoramic depth images. Panoramic images efficiently capture range measurements taken by a spinning lidar sensor, recording fine detail on the order of a few centimeters within maps of expansive scope on the order of tens of millions of cubic meters.

ABSTRACT Climate change is caused by an increase in global temperatures, known as global warming. This is largely attributed to the rising levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, with carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel power plants being the major culprit. Implementing carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) strategies is essential
