    Author: Larson, Mark, Lawson, Heather, Zahl, Eric and Jones, Tristan
     
    Description: Researchers from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) have been conducting research with the goal of gaining a better understanding of ground stress redistribution resulting from mining. Part 1 of this research involves representing stress redistribution using empirical equations or numerical models that are calibrated to observations and measurements.
