  1. 1. Rock Wedge Stability Assessment : A Comparative Analysis of Limit Equilibrium and Discrete Element Methods

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Vilma Nordh; [2024]
    Keywords : Numerical modelling; wedge stability; 3DEC; UnWedge;

    Abstract : Rock wedge stability is a common concern in underground excavations. Since the wedge stability influences the support design, it is important to use a wedge stability analysis method that can capture factors like excavation geometry, joint parameters and properties, rock mass properties, rock cover, and stress field as accurately as possible.

    Keywords : Feminism; FFP; Gender ideology; gender equality; Sweden; CFA; feminist backsliding; norm spoiling;

    Abstract : This article examines the Swedish government's decoupling of feminism and gender equality. Drawing on scholarship on feminist backsliding and gender ideology, this article suggests that the Swedish government's decision to abandon the feminist agenda in its foreign policy reflects broader trends of anti-genderism as both an international and transnational phenomenon.

  4. 4. Evaluating the academic connectedness between Transitional Justice and the scientific subfields of Forensic Archaeology and Forensic Antropology : A mixed method approachA mixed method approach

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Hugo Valentin-centrum

    Author : Rianca Vogels; [2023]
    Keywords : Transitional Justice; Forensic Archaeology; Forensic Anthropology; interdisciplinary; keywords; academic interaction;

    Abstract : The fields of Transitional Justice and Forensic Archaeology and Anthropology are all, one way or another, in the service of Truth Finding; theoretically they should be incorporated within each other’s theoretical frameworks and mechanisms, as the fields have considerate overlap. Approaching the fields from an academic perspective, one will soon learn that, although connected by Truth, their academic foundations are vastly different, in every sense possible; their ontology, epistemology as well as their dissemination of research.

  5. 5. Evaluation of structurally controlled rockfall hazard for underground excavations in seismically active areas of the Kiirunavaara mine

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Manuel Alberto Fuentes Espinoza; [2023]
    Keywords : Structurally controlled rockfalls; rockfalls due to seismic shaking; sublevel caving; fork layout; Unwedge; wedge analysis; deterministic analysis; probabilistic analysis;

    Abstract : Sublevel caving operations at great depths are subjected both to large stress concentrations that are redistributed as the mining front progresses and to mining-induced seismicity. This is the case for Kiirunavaara mine, Sweden’s largest underground mine. READ MORE
