Rapid optimisation in underground mining network design

该项目代表着在优化地下矿山基础设施和为管理提供强大的规划工具问题上的重大进展。我们正在开发的软件工具将被证明对采矿业很重要，因为它们的准确性、灵活性和通用性。它们不仅可以用于特定矿山设计的基准，而且还为测试新兴技术的成本效益提供了一种可靠的方法。这是确保澳大利亚采矿业保持高效和国际竞争力的重要项目。鉴于我们对矿产资源的经济依赖，这也将使整个澳大利亚受益。

This project represents a major advance in the problem of optimising the infrastructure of underground mines and providing powerful planning tools for management. The software tools we are developing will prove important to the mining industry because of their accuracy, flexibility and generality. Not only can they be used for benchmarking in the design of specific mines, but they also provide a reliable method for testing the cost-benefit of emerging technologies. This is an important project for ensuring that Australia's mining industry remains efficient and internationally competitive. Given our economic dependence on mineral resources, it will also benefit Australia as a whole.
