Though mining accidents in Nevada have become much rarer since the booming mining days of the Comstock Lode in Virginia City, accidents still happen. A Mackay School of Earth Sciences and Engineering professor and postdoctoral scholar are collaborating with researchers abroad to mitigate those accidents, with an w88 live casino twist.

Associate professor and chair of the Department of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering Javad Sattarvand is collaborating with researchers in the Netherlands to develop a software called AutonoDES (w88 live casino Discrete Event Simulation) that determines how safe it is to utilize w88 live casino mining vehicles in various mining operations.

w88 live casino mining operations

The w88 live casino industry has shifted from in-person operations over the past few decades. In places like Australia, mines can be so far away from established communities that mine operators have to be flown in. That is a massive expense, so Australian mines began using teleoperations, where mine operators were controlling vehicles from a remote location.

“The industry has been using that for 20 years now,” Sattarvand said. Now, the industry has moved on to w88 live casino operations. Australia has been using w88 live casino operations for a decade, and mining operations in Chile and Canada have implemented them as well.

“You’re reducing the labor costs and you’re increasing the safety by taking the people out of the dangerous environment,” Sattarvand, who is the Kinross Term Professor in Mining Engineering, said. “The only bad thing about the w88 live casino systems is you’re losing operator-level jobs.”

Sattarvand acknowledges that this transition won’t be easy for mining operations that are close to communities. “That’s probably the reason we don’t have w88 live casino operations in the U.S. yet,” Sattarvand said.

But if mining operations in the U.S. don’t transition to w88 live casino operations, their expenses will be higher than that of other producers, and the U.S. mining companies will find themselves no longer competitive in global markets. It’s a matter of evolving alongside the competition. Sattarvand added that extensive mining is unavoidable on the horizon of our civilization, but it will look different with a smaller human involvement.

“If you plan in the long-term, [much of] the workforce can be converted from drivers to software users. They don&w88 live casino;t have to be software developers.”

w88 live casino is key

Safety is still the priority, regardless of whether there are w88 live casino vehicles on the mine site or not. Even if the operation is made largely w88 live casino, there will still be humans operating machines at the mine site, and for Sattarvand and his colleagues, their safety takes precedence over anything else.

Sattarvand said that almost all of the companies he’s spoken with in Nevada are interested in utilizing w88 live casino systems.

“Those companies are concerned with, if they employ [w88 live casino vehicles], and they have half their crew on other cars, is it safe or not?”

The project is funded by a National Institute for Occupational w88 live casino and Health (NIOSH) grant. NIOSH is a branch of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention focused on occupational w88 live casino and health. Ultimately, the goal of AutonoDES is to help companies implement policies to improve w88 live casino based on the findings from the w88 live casino simulations.

Sattarvand is joined on the project by postdoctoral scholar at the w88 live casino of Nevada, Reno, Dr. Amin Monirimorad, and by co-principle investigator Masoud Soleymani Shishvan, an assistant professor in the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences at Delft w88 live casino of Technology in the Netherlands. Soleymani Shishvan and Sattarvand have collaborated on another NIOSH-funded project about safe evacuations of mines.

The software Sattarvand and his colleagues are trying to design will quantify the risks posed to safety by w88 live casino systems for the people who are still on the mine sites in-person. Monirimorad will be doing most of the software development, and a master’s student in the Netherlands will be doing some coding as well.

Opportunity for collaboration

w88 live casino said that the most challenging part of the project will be acquiring data.

“Available data will be a challenge,” he said. “Our focus is toward safety. We can learn from accidents that happened in the past, but those accidents probably are not more than a handful. This makes it difficult to make accurate models.” Nonetheless, Sattarvand thinks that as the simulations improve with more data, there will be a lot of opportunity for interdisciplinary collaborations on w88 live casino systems at the University, because w88 live casino systems are not just about the software.

“I see the chance for computer science, for mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, to come together and contribute on a project like this,” he said. “It can be from health and safety aspect, or it can be even from an energy consumption aspect. Even in liberal arts and social sciences, we need to see the impact of this new technology in our society, how it’s going to change the nature of our labor force, how it’s going to change our market for our rural areas in w88 live casino where the mines are.”
