Das markscheiderisch-geomechanische Monitoring für die Flutung einer komplexen Gangerzlagerstätte

Kaden, Roman, Wallner, Olaf 28 September 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Der Abbau der Uranerzlagerstätte Schlema-Alberoda von über Tage bis in eine Teufe von 2000 m und die anschließende Flutung führten zu Einwirkungen auf die Tagesoberfläche u.a. in Form von Senkungen, Hebungen, Horizontalverschiebungen und seismischen Entspannungen. Im Grubenteil Oberschlema entstand durch intensiven Abzug des Eigenversatzes aus dem Firstenstoßbau ein Bruchkörper (sog. Deformationsgebiet), der einen ca. 3,3 km² großen Senkungstrog mit Senkungen bis 6 m, mehrere hundert Meter lange Erdrisse und eine ca. 30 Jahre anhaltende Nachsenkungsphase mit Senkungen bis 3 cm/a verursachte (abbaubedingte Bodenbewegungen). Infolge der abbaubedingten Bodenbewegungen, der Vielzahl von tagesnahen Grubenbauen und daraus entstandener Tagesbrüche, musste der Kurort Oberschlema fast vollständig abgebrochen werden. Das ca. 25 ha große, als Deformationsgebiet bezeichnete Gelände wurde eingezäunt. Nach 1994 entstand in diesem Gebiet ein Kurpark. Mit der Stilllegung der Grube Schlema-Alberoda begann die Flutung. Ab 1998 wurde auch der Bruchkörper geflutet. Entsprechend der bisher beobachteten Bodenbewegungen reagiert der Bruchkörper und das relativ standfeste umgebende Grubengebäude unterschiedlich auf die Flutung. Über dem Bruchkörper wurden Schieflagen um 4 mm/m, Verschiebungen über 15 cm, Zerrungen bis 6 mm/m und Pressungen bis zu 5 mm/m ermittelt. Über dem Grubenteil Niederschlema-Alberoda konnten mit den bis Oktober 2016 durchgeführten Nivellements flutungsbedingte großflächige Hebungen bis 12 cm nachgewiesen werden. Ursache der Hebungen sind Dehnungen des durchbauten Gebirgskörpers bis in eine Teufe von ca. 1000 m. In dem Beitrag wird das für die Beobachtung und Interpretation der geomechanischen Auswirkungen der Flutung der Grube durchzuführende Monitoring sowie einige Ergebnisse vorgestellt.

System for vessel characterization : development and evaluation with application to deep vein thrombosis diagnosis

Guerrero, Julian 11 1900 (has links)
A system for vessel characterization aimed at detecting deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limbs has been developed and evaluated using ultrasound image processing, location and force sensors measurements, blood flow information and a protocol based on the current clinical standard, compression ultrasound. The goal is to provide an objective and repeatable system to measure DVT in a rapid and standardized manner, as this has been suggested in the literature as an approach to improve overall detection of the disease. The system uses a spatial Kalman filter-based algorithm with an elliptical model in the measurement equation to detect vessel contours in transverse ultrasound images and estimate ellipse parameters, and temporal constant velocity Kalman filters for tracking vessel location in real-time. The vessel characterization also comprises building a 3-D vessel model and performing compression and blood flow assessments to calculate measures that indicate the possibility of DVT in a vessel. A user interface designed for assessing a vessel for DVT was also developed. The system and components were implemented and tested in simulations, laboratory settings, and clinical settings. Contour detection results are good, with mean and rms errors ranging from 1.47-3.64 and 3.69-9.67 pixels, respectively, in simulated and patient images, and parameter estimation errors of 5%. Experiments showed errors of 3-5 pixels for the tracking approaches. The measures for DVT were evaluated, independently and integrated in the system. The complete system was evaluated, with sensitivity of 67-100% and specificity of 50-89.5%. System learnability and memorability were evaluated in a separate user study, with good results. Contributions include a segmentation approach using a full parameter ellipse model in an extended Kalman filter, incorporating multiple measurements, an alternate sampling method for faster parameter convergence and application-specific initialization, and a tracking approach that includes a sub-sampled sum of absolutes similarity calculation and a method to detect vessel bifurcations using flow data. Further contributions include an integrated system for DVT detection that can combine ultrasound B-mode, colour flow and elastography images for vessel characterization, a system interface design focusing on usability that was evaluated with medical professionals, and system evaluations through multiple patient studies. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Electrical and Computer Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Diagnosing DVT in the Emergency Department: Combining Clinical Predictors, D-dimer and Bedside Ultrasound

Blecher, Gabriel E. January 2013 (has links)
I assessed the accuracy of two clinical prediction rules, the d-dimer blood test and point of care ultrasound for diagnosing lower limb deep vein thrombosis. Emergency physicians were trained in ultrasound and prospectively scanned emergency department patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis. Accuracy of the Wells and AMUSE rules and the ultrasound result was compared to radiology-performed ultrasound and a 90-day clinical outcome. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed assessing which factors were associated with the outcome. The sensitivity and specificity of the Wells score for the clinical outcome was 85.7% and 68.5%; the AMUSE score 85.7% and 54.4%. Ultrasound had a sensitivity of 91.7% and specificity of 91.7% for radiology-diagnosed thrombus and 78.6% and 95.0% for clinical outcome. The odds ratio of a positive outcome with a positive ultrasound was 65.1. After receiving the ultrasound training program, emergency physicians were unable to demonstrate sufficient accuracy to replace current diagnostic strategies.

Empirical and Numerical Finite-Element-Based Model to Improve Narrow Vein Mine Design in Peruvian Mining

Belizario-Calsin, M., Belizario-Calsin, M., Condori-Cardenas, R., Pehovaz-Alvarez, H., Raymundo-Ibanez, C., Perez, Moises 28 February 2020 (has links)
This paper proposes a numerical finite-element-based model aimed at optimizing narrow-vein stope stability. This model combines empirical and numerical methods to develop a sequence, which may determine an acceptable stope safety factor. A stope stability analysis was conducted through the Mathews stability graph method, which requires two factors: the hydraulic radius (HR) and stability number (N'). The Mathews stability graph method is used to assess the stability of an underground design. Variations in stope dimensions are estimated by changing the HR and Factor A within the N', which is determined through numerical methods. The results of the numerical simulation indicate that the HR increases with an increase in stope dimensions, while Factor A maintains an inverse relationship with the maximum stress induced on the excavation walls. This document demonstrates the potential of combining empirical and numerical methods in stope design optimization, especially when developed in small narrow vein mines.

Retinal vascular blood flow in patients with retinal vein occlusions

Koch, Rachelle Elif 10 July 2020 (has links)
PURPOSE: This study aims to quantify the retinal vascular blood flow in eyes affected by unilateral central retinal vein occlusions (CRVO) or branch retinal vein occlusions (BRVO). We created and explored a new, unitless metric for the severity of these diseases: relative blood flow (RBF). We then contextualized RBF in terms of patient demographics, ocular presentation and other systemic conditions, as well as explored its efficacy as a predictor of future outcomes. METHODS: Data was collected from 20 control subjects and 32 patients with clinically diagnosed retinal vein occlusions (15 CRVO and 17 BRVO). Laser speckle flowgraphy was then used to quantify retinal vascular blood flow in terms of mean blur rate, a metric shown to be highly heterogeneous between patients but fairly consistent in intra-patient repeated measurements over time. After confirming this and establishing a strong correlation between a healthy patient’s two eyes, we used an RVO patient’s fellow eye as a nondiseased expectation and presented relative blood flow as the ratio between their diseased and healthy eye. We then correlated this data with demographic variables and disease characteristics from patients’ medical history. RESULTS: We found an average blood flow decrease of 26% in CRVO eyes relative to healthy eyes in the same patients and an average decrease of 7% in BRVO eyes. In CRVO, duration of occlusion, central macular thickness, intraocular pressure, diabetes, previous laser and injection treatments, and an injection within three months after blood flow measurement were significantly associated with relative blood flow. In BRVO, no demographic variables or disease characteristics were significantly associated with relative blood flow. CONCLUSIONS: Relative blood flow represents a promising new, consistent and informative metric for quantifying the severity of unilateral retinal vein occlusions. With both descriptive and predictive properties in eyes with CRVO, future work should explore its great potential.
