The Significance of Superincumbent Strata Stiffness and its Impacts on Coalmine Design
By J M. Galvin
The traditional engineering approach to assessing stability is based on comparing resisting force (capacity) to driving force (demand), or strength to working stress. In underground coal geomechanics,
