Modern Approaches to Monitoring and Analysis of Deformation Processes

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article explores modern approaches to monitoring and analyzing deformation processes in open-pit mining using automated control and measuring systems (ACMS). The study presents a conceptual and practical framework for integrating geotechnical sensors, geodetic monitoring, and finite element modeling into a unified decision-support system. A hypothetical case study of an open-pit mine in Eastern Kazakhstan is used to simulate stress–strain behavior under dynamic loading conditions. The modeling parameters and input data are described in detail, including assumptions on rock mechanical properties, boundary conditions, and external factors such as precipitation and excavation activity. Results show a potential 25–30% increase in deformation in critical zones within 5 years, confirming the need for predictive monitoring. The findings support the integration of ACMS and geomechanical simulation tools to reduce accident risks, improve forecast accuracy, and increase operational safety in complex geological environments.
