Selected models for the description of the kinematics of changes of height differences between points in a geodesic network under the influence of mining
Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 8
Abstract
The article attempts to describe the progress of deformation of the surface of the Legnica-Głogów Copper Mining Area in the years 1967-2008. The state of deformation has been described with kinematical models of the displacement of points representing the area under research. It has been analysed whether there are possibilities of using a counter-propagation algorithm for estimating displacements of selected points for which an assumption has been made that during the research they were damaged or destroyed. The numerical procedures of the estimation of parameters of displacement models were carried out by means of traditional optimisation methods and neural networks.<br/><br/>
