Cable shovel excavation in the Athabasca oil sands is vital given
the in-situ excavation of formation. Random occurrence of boulders
in the oil sands formation results in varying mechanical energy
input and stress loading of the shovel handle-dippertooth assembly.
These problems pose significant failure threat to the shovel
handledipper- teeth assembly resulting in unplanned downtimes,
inefficiency and high production costs. A potential solution is the
deployment of an intelligent shovel navigation technology.
Currently, there are no prediction models, based on sound theory,
for shovel navigation in this formation. This book covers a
pioneering research effort toward developing dynamic models to
accurately predict the formation resistances, optimal digging
schemes and critical formation resistances on the dipper-teeth
assembly.
