International Symposium organized by the International Bureau of Strata Mechanics (IBSM)

MAIN THEME: Contribution of Strata Mechanics to mining technology and work safety

Main topics:
Session 1 - Strata dynamics (mine tremours, rockbursts, rock and gas
outbursts) - the hazard evaluation and accident prevention
guidelines,

Session 2 - Mining operations within deep mineral deposits and close to
tectonic disturbances,

Session 3 - New methods in geomechanical analysis (in situ measurements,
new equipment, theoretical studies, numerical simulations).
