The Influence of Geotechnical, Geological and Mining Factors on the Formation of Sinkholes at Lubambe Mine, Zambia
Authors: Mutambo Victor Patson , Chukharev Serhii , Sinkala Pardon , Mikoloni Draida
Published: June 2024

Mining-induced sinkholes are a common feature in underground mines. Sinkholes usually disrupt mining operations and associated infrastructure when they occur. This paper presents a case study of the Lubambe copper mine, where nine (9) sinkholes have been reported on the eastern and southern limbs. The development of sinkholes has resulted in increased mining costs due to the closure of the 182 mL decline on the eastern limb and the 175 mL truck route on the southern limb. This study establishes the influence that poor ground formation, rock stability, geological structures, and inappropriate mining practices have on the formation of surface sinkholes. Assessment of ground condition was done by core logging, and borehole analysis was conducted using GEM4D-BasRock software to classify the rock mass quality based on RQD, RMR, Q-System and GIS. Assessment of the mining operational environment was focused on the effects of varying stope designs and sequencing on ground stability. Results of the study indicate that the formation of surface-induced sinkholes is attributed to historical mining in weak rock formation and weathered rock coupled with subsequent failure of unsupported stopes with stope height between 8 and 25 metres and less stand-up time of 7 days.

Published: June 2024

The article presents the results of research on the level of work safety culture, which is an important element influencing the organisational culture in mining enterprises. The article aims to measure the safety culture among managers in Polish hard coal mines. The assumed goal was achieved in the area of literature and empirical research. Research shows that the precise identification of hazards defined the thematic areas shaping safe working conditions in underground mines. The main part of the work was to survey 135 employees in 3 hard coal companies in Poland. The questionnaires were developed in cooperation with mining experts, and the 5-point Likert scale was used to evaluate individual questions. This methodological approach identified the subjective feelings and experiences of employees for building appropriate attitudes and behaviours that shape the organisational culture. The use of a culture grid enabled the creation of seven thematic groups of safety areas related to the so-called referents of organisational culture. The result of the empirical research is to propose an approach for the transformation of safety culture in the selected area for mining companies. The approach uses the organisational culture grid to shape the attitudes and behaviours of employees, which identifies and designates weak areas, defining them as unsatisfactory and unacceptable, and being the key conclusion of the research.
The Influence of Rope Guide Sleeve Clearance on the Lateral Oscillation of Rope Guided Conveyance in Mine Hoist System caused by the Aerodynamic Force
Authors: Wu Renyuan , Wang Shuangli , Wang Chengjun
Published: June 2024

The lateral oscillation behaviour of rope guided conveyances was so complicated that the rope guided hoisting system hasn’t been understood thoroughly so far. In this study, the CFD tool was used to obtain the aerodynamic force acting on the conveyance by writing a user-defined function (UDF), and then the oscillation behaviour of rope guided conveyances was investigated numerically by Matlab with the variation clearance between the guide sleeve and the guide rope. A non-smooth oscillation model of the rope guided conveyance was established by considering the clearance between the guide sleeve and the guide rope. Results show that the aerodynamic buffeting forces had a notable influence on the oscillation behaviour of rope guided conveyances during the conveyances passing each other. The lateral acceleration of the rope guided conveyances showed a minor change with the increase of the clearance. However, the oscillation amplitude of the conveyances manifested a positive correlation with the rope guide sleeve clearance.

Published: June 2024

The stress field of the roadway under multi-seam mining is complex due to multiple mining disturbances. The bolting control of the roadway under multi-seam mining has attracted wide concern. Moreover, conventional metal supporting materials in the coal rib are prone to sparks when shearer works, and new bolting materials are urgently needed. Taking a track roadway under multi-seam mining in China as the engineering case, the mining-induced stress field of the track roadway under multi-seam mining was investigated through numerical simulation and lab and field tests. The test evaluated the mechanical behaviour of FRP bolts and rebar bolts, as well as their anchorage performance under different conditions. Comparative analysis was conducted on the deformation and failure characteristics of the roadway under different bolting parameters to determine an optimised bolting scheme for the track roadway in the I011501 working face. The results show that the goafs and the remaining coal pillars in the overlying coal seams increase the stress in the track roadway in the I011501 working face, especially for the lower rib and roof. The tensile force of the 27 mm-diameter FRP bolt is 1.2 times that of the 22 mm-diameter rebar bolt. The shear strength of the full-length anchored FRP bolt is 70.8% higher than that of the end-anchored bolt. The peak stress of the full-length-anchored bolt is in the shallow coal and rock mass. The optimised bolting scheme of the track roadway subject to multi-seam mining is determined, and the cost of the optimised bolting scheme is lower by about 25.2%, as compared with the primary bolting scheme. Numerical simulation and field application results indicate that the optimised bolting scheme can significantly reduce the deformation and plastic failure of the track roadway in the I011501 working face, which is under multi-seam mining conditions.

Published: June 2024

This article addresses the issue of reducing carbon footprint in construction production. It focuses on the sources and factors of greenhouse gas emissions responsible for climate change. The construction sector plays a significant role in generating carbon footprint, both in the manufacturing of construction products within supply chains and during the execution of construction work on-site. The identified factors that influence carbon footprint throughout the lifecycle of a construction project and the life of a building are examined and analysed using the DEMATEL method. The research aims to identify causal relationships among factors that contribute to minimising carbon footprint in construction projects. The factors with the highest causal impact are identified in each phase of the building’s lifecycle, including Building Information Modelling (BIM), appropriate selection of construction products, and regulatory and financial incentives. The results of the analysis can be utilised to support decision-making processes aimed at reducing harmful emissions during project realisation and building operation.

Published: June 2024

Milk is a food product of animal origin that has high benefits. The main requirement for milk consumption by the public is good milk quality. This study aims to determine the quality of Etawa breeding goat milk as seen from the California mastitis test, alcohol test, reductase test, and boiling test at Raka Etawa Farm and see the relationship between the California mastitis test (CMT) with the alcohol test, reductase, and boiling test. This study was conducted in a descriptive observational. Sampling using purposive sampling method with sample criteria taken is milk from goat mothers who are in the lactation period. In this study it was found that of the 30 milk samples taken, based on the results of the California mastitis test, there were 15 samples of milk of Etawa breeding goats (50%) experiencing the incidence of subclinical mastitis level III, 11 milk samples (36,7%) experiencing the incidence of subclinical mastitis level II, and as many as 4 milk samples (13,3%) did not experience the incidence of subclinical mastitis. Based on the alcohol test, 26 milk samples (80%) showed positive results and as many as 4 milk samples (20%) showed negative results. The reductase test results showed that 24 samples (80%) had a reductase time of 2 hours and 6 samples (20%) showed a reductase time of 1 hour. The boiling test results showed that 26 milk samples (86,7%) were positive and 4 milk samples (13,3%) had negative results. There was no significant relationship between the CMT test and alcohol test and the CMT test and reductase test (P > 0.05). There was a significant relationship between the CMT test and boiling test (P < 0.05) on the quality of milk of Etawa breeding goats at Raka Etawa Farm. It can be concluded that the majority of Etawa breeding goat milk at Raka Etawa Farm is of poor quality. Cage hygiene, cleaning the udder before milking, and always using gloves during milking need to be considered to produce good quality milk by applicable standards.

Biosecurity is a management step that must be taken by farmers to prevent disease germs from entering the farm and to prevent diseases on the farm from spreading to other farms. This research aims to determine the implementation and level of application of biosecurity components in closed house cages for broiler chicken breeders in Susut District, Bangli Regency, Bali. The method used is a census of respondents, namely all breeders. The data obtained from the interviews is tabulated and then the percentage of the amount of data that is in accordance with biosecurity implementation practices is calculated. The results show that overall farmers have implemented biosecurity components with each biosecurity component, namely the sanitation component showing the Very Good category (85%), the traffic control component showing the Poor category (38.81%) and the sanitation component showing the Very Good category. (97.7%). From the results obtained, chicken farmers should further improve their biosecurity implementation system, especially for guests/farm workers, because a very big factor in the spread of disease is the traffic component, including people, equipment and vehicles.

Published: June 2024

Laying hens are chickens that are raised with the aim of producing eggs with high productivity. In order to maximize the productivity of laying hens, many farmers use a battery cage system. Battery cages actually implement poor welfare due to extreme confinement and restrictions on chicken behavior. This study aims to determine the application of animal welfare on layer farms in two villages with different altitudes. Pering village located in lowland and Puhu village located in highland. The data collection method used a questionnaire by conducting interviews with layer farmers. Data were analysed descriptive quantitatively and Mann Whitney comparison test was conducted to compare data between sampling villages. The results of the analysis showed that there were significant differences in the application of the concept of freedom from discomfort and the application of the concept of freedom to express natural behavior. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the application of the five freedom principles between the two villages. The researcher suggested to the farmers in Puhu village to start trying the free cage method which in principle is more prosperous for the chickens.

Published: June 2024

Demand for beef continues to increase, this creates an opportunity for Bali cattle breeders to increase their production. The decline in cattle production can also be influenced by a lack of public knowledge about livestock management and a lack of knowledge and implementation of animal welfare. The aim of the research is to determine the implementation of animal welfare on Balinese cattle farms in Sebatu Village and Taro Village, Tegallalang District, Gianyar Regency. This research uses an observational method by interviewing cattle breeders directly. The number of respondents was 40 families who were raising cattle in Sebatu Village and Taro Village, Tegallalang District, Gianyar Regency, Bali. The research results show that the implementation of animal welfare in Sebatu Village is in the good category as much as 50% and 50% is very good, while in Taro Village the implementation of animal welfare in the good category is 65% and very good 35%. It can be concluded that the application of animal welfare principles in the two sample villages does not show significant differences. It is recommended to carry out further research regarding the fulfillment of minimum animal welfare standards on Balinese cattle farms throughout Bali

Published: June 2024

Foot and mouth disease is a disease that attacks cloven-hoofed animals, one example of which is cattle. Foot and mouth disease makes many farmers lose money so vaccination is carried out to prevent it. However, this alone is not enough, to prevent this, the Ministry of Agriculture advises farmers to tighten biosecurity. The aim of this research was to determine the level of knowledge of livestock breeders and cowshed biosecurity regarding the prevention of foot and mouth disease in Gianyar Regency, Bali. The data collection technique was carried out by random purposive sampling in each group. Each group represents two people from each simantri group. Then the data was analyzed descriptively qualitatively and displayed in table form and using a 0-2 Likert scale, to find a relationship between the level of knowledge and biosecurity implementation, the data was analyzed using a correlation test. From the interview results, it was obtained that simanteri in Gianyar Regency had knowledge with a percentage of 58% or in the sufficient category. Knowledge is influenced by several factors, namely education, age and length of maintenance. In this research, the higher the education, the better the knowledge they have, but this does not apply to the level of age and length of maintenance, the longer the age or the length of maintenance does not determine whether the simantri have good knowledge. This is one of the reasons why Simanteri does not implement biosecurity properly. The implementation of biosecurity standards in Gianyar Regency, Bali is in the poor category with an average score of 11.3 or equivalent to 37.6%. There are still many people who have not implemented cage biosecurity. In the correlation test, knowledge only affects 0.601, and the rest is influenced by many factors that need to be investigated further. From the correlation test, the strength of the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of breeders is considered very weak. However, the relationship between the two variables is unidirectional, where if knowledge simultaneously increases, biosecurity implementation will also increase. Based on the research results, the author suggests carrying out additional outreach and education efforts.

Published: June 2024

Acne vulgaris, or acne, was a common skin problem that occurred in adolescents and young adults, and had a significant psychological impact, especially on individual self-confidence. The high prevalence of this issue, along with factors such as dietary patterns, sleep habits, and coffee consumption, led to a need for deeper understanding of its relationship with skin conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the association between coffee consumption and sleep quality with the occurrence of acne vulgaris. The research method used a quantitative approach with a survey design and descriptive correlational method in a cross-sectional research approach. The instruments included a coffee consumption questionnaire with a Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.707 and a PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) questionnaire with a Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.888. The study sample consisted of students from Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia Kampus Sumedang who experienced acne problems, frequently consumed coffee, and had insufficient sleep hours. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires that covered information about coffee consumption patterns and types of coffee consumed, as well as sleep patterns. The research results indicated that there was no significant relationship between coffee consumption and the occurrence of acne vulgaris, with a p-value of 0.106 (>0.05). However, there was a significant association between sleep quality and the occurrence of acne vulgaris, with a p-value less than 0.001. The conclusion from this study was that coffee did not directly impact the growth of acne, but poor sleep quality could directly affect acne occurrence. Further research is expected to explore other factors that may cause acne vulgaris.

Memperkirakan interval waktu kematian sangat penting dilakukan, khususnya pada kasus kematian tidak wajar. Perubahan lanjut yang pertama terlihat untuk dapat memperkirakan interval waktu kematian, yaitu lebam mayat, baru menetap setelah 8-12 jam postmortem. Salah satu metode lain yang dapat dilakukan untuk dapat mempersempit perkiraan interval waktu kematian sebelum 8-12 jam postmortem, yaitu pemeriksaan fundus okular, yang idealnya memerlukan penggunaan midriatikum agar gambaran fundus okular dapat diamati dengan lebih jelas. Namun, efek midriasis dari pemberian midriatikum setelah kematian masih belum banyak diteliti. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif observasional dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Data berasal dari sumber data primer berupa gambaran fundus okular dan efek midriasis dari pemberian tropikamid 1% setelah kematian. Data sekunder berupa surat keterangan kematian dari sampel. Teknik pengumpulan sampel dengan metode consecutive sampling dilakukan pada Bulan Juli hingga Oktober 2022 di Instalasi Kedokteran Forensik dan Pemulasaraan Jenazah RSUP Prof. Dr. I.G.N.G Ngoerah, dan didapatkan sejumlah 25 jenazah. Dilakukan analisis univariat untuk mengetahui distribusi frekuensi gambaran fundus okular dan efek midriasis dari pemberian tropikamid 1% dengan beberapa interval waktu kematian. Dalam penelitian ini diperoleh hasil gambaran fundus okular yang bervariasi terhadap interval waktu kematian. Efek midriasis dari pemberian tropikamid 1% pada penelitian ini, sebagian besar menunjukkan reaksi positif, tetapi belum dapat menghasilkan pelebaran ukuran diameter pupil mata yang ideal untuk pemeriksaan fundus okular.

This study aims to analyze the effect of brand equity on cash flow, the effect of brand equity on capital structure, the effect of cash flow on firm value, and capital structure on firm value.
 
Literature Review: Research by Mendoza, (2017), Skalický, (2016), Sivric et al (2019), Guentherb and Guentherb (2019) state brand equity has a direct relationship with capital structure. Singh and Bansal (2016) examined the impact of financial leverage on firm profitability and firm value.
 
Method: The data analysis method used in this study uses the PLS model and data processing using the WarpPLS (Partial Least Square) program. The study used a sample of consumption subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2015-2019 and met the requirements for calculating the brand value of the Hirose method (2002).
 
Results and Discussion: brand equity has a significant effect on cash flow; brand equity has a significant effect on capital structure, cash flow has an insignificant effect on firm value, capital structure has a significant effect on value.
 
Conclusion: The findings of increasing brand equity have an influence on the company's cash flow which is characterized by an increase in NCFOSA and a decrease in the company's FLD. Increasing brand equity has an impact on capital structure. Changes in cash flow have no effect on firm value. Increased debt in the capital structure has an impact on firm value.
