DETERMINING OF MINING TRANSPORT CAPACITY BY SIMULATION
Abstract
Research discussed in the present article is focused on the determination of the mining rail transport capacity while applying two approaches. The first one - a conventional one, is a calculation of capacity while using known mathematical formulas. The second one - an experimental approach, identifies the capacity on the basis of simulation application, as the simulation has remarkable potential also in terms of further research in the given area. The simulation model was created in EXTENDSim, a product of Imagine That, Inc. USA. Based on the results of the calculations and the simulation, conclusions are drawn. Calculation and simulation gave comparable results. This calculation and model are applicable in practice as an auxiliary tool for the planning of transport during the mining transport of raw materials. The simulation model presented in this paper is only one possible solution. Of course, the model is not the final version, it can be further expanded for other activities. This is the recommendation for further research.
