Spring 2019
This thesis aims to demonstrate the feasibility of using System Dynamics (SD) techniques to develop a transparent, open-source and reproducible model capable of simulating long-term soil water dynamics in a tailings-cap system subject to upward flux from a consolidating tailings substrate. The...

Development of a Waste Rock Simulation Model Including Placement Techniques to Minimize Environmental Impacts of Acid Rock Drainage
DownloadFall 2022
This research aims to develop a model using a systems dynamics approach that can be coupled with TMSim to account for the deposition of waste rock at hard rock mines at the feasibility stage of mine planning. The model includes waste rock placement techniques to minimize the environmental impacts...
