Monitoring and analyses of seismic events at the Velenje coal mineLikar, Jakob (Avtor) Dervarič, Evgen (Avtor) Medved, Milan (Avtor) Mayer, Janez (Avtor) Vižintin, Goran (Avtor) , Fakulteta za gradbeništvo, prometno inženirstvo in arhitekturo Univerze v Mariboru (Lastnik avtorskih pravic) miningrockburstsseismicitycoal mine Velenjelongwall miningcavingSloveniapublic responseComplaints about ground shaking and tremors were regularly addressed to the management of the Velenje Coal Mine. A micro-seismic monitoring system was set up on the surface in nearby urban areas and also directly in the vicinity of the mining activities. The results of these measurements were carefully analysed and presented to the public together with various safe-vibration-limit standards (in this case national standards). A system for automatically publishing measurements immediately after the event is recorded was also set up. This resulted in a dramatic reduction in the number of complaints. Routine micro-seismic monitoring became part of the regular monitoring of mining activities as some patterns of seismic response to mass mining were revealed.20082018-06-05 08:59:06Znanstveno delo70662slFakulteta za gradbeništvo, prometno inženirstvo in arhitekturo Univerze v Mariboru
