It has been almost fifty years since the first papers on the
application of reliability theory to mining problems were published
in the United States. Developing rapidly in the late 1950s and
1960s, reliability theory quickly found a wide application in
mining engineering. Ten years later "Terotechnology" became popular
in the UK and at the same time its counterpart "Theory of
Exploitation" was introduced in Central Europe. Similar to
reliability theory, they both found wide application in mining.
Since then a lot of articles have been published in many countries
concerning these scopes of considerations but a wider elaboration
on this topic was still lacking. This book gives an explanation of
the mutual relationships between terotechnology and the theory of
exploitation, and presents the fundamentals of the theory of
exploitation and its role in relation to mining engineering where
mine machines and machinery systems are concerned. Further,
statistical diagnostics, exploitation processes of machines,
reliability and its models, and the methods of modelling and
analysis of the processes of changes of states are treated.
A significant part of the book deals with cyclical systems that
are in common use. A variety of models are considered supported by
many case studies. The last chapter deals with combined systems
operating in a mixed manner. Finally, an analyses of the influence
of the inhomogeneity of a different nature in a shovel-truck type
system is given.
The examples presented in the book are based on the data coming
from operation of pieces of equipment from different mines and
different countries.
This book will be of particular interest to students, academics
and lecturers of mining faculties and schools of mining. Mining
Engineers and other professionals in the mining industry will also
find this book of interest. Finally, students in mathematics will
find practical applications and problem solving in this book.
