ISBN: 9780754646501 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Bringing together a range of case studies of women miners from past and present in Asia, the Pacific region, Latin America and Africa, this book makes visible the roles and contributions of women as miners. It also highlights the importance of engendering small and informal mining in the developing...

Near-Surface Hydraulic Fracture
ISBN: 9783838319179 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. On April 30, 1999 an estimated 10,300 square meters of roof area collapsed at the Moonee Colliery longwall coal mine near Sydney, Australia. The collapse itself was not the problem; longwall coal mines are nearly always designed such that stabilization occurs through frequent caving events in the mined-out region behind the longwall face. The problem was that it occurred on a very large scale and without warning. A miner was injured when he was thrown by the resulting wind blast, and the mine was shut down contingent on mitigation of the hazard. The CSIRO Medal winning solution to this ...

He also pioneered electrochemistry, isolating potassium, sodium and calcium. But Davy is best known for creating the safety lamp when he was asked to address the frequent occurrence of explosions in coal mines. He realised that firedamp flammable gases such as methane was ignited at high temperature by the open flames of miners' lamps. In 1815, he...

Underbalanced Drilling: Limits and Extremes
ISBN: 9781933762050 / Angielski / Twarda / 629 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present crude oil and natural gas reservoirs around the world have depleted conventional production levels. To continue enhancing productivity for the remaining mature reservoirs, drilling decision-makers could no longer rely on traditional balanced or overbalanced methods of drilling. Derived from conventional air drilling, underbalanced drilling is increasingly necessary to meet today's energy and drilling needs. While more costly and extreme, underbalanced drilling can minimize pressure within the formation, increase drilling rate of penetration, reduce formation damage and lost...
