Abstract:In post-mining areas where hard coal mining took place under a thick overburden of carbonate rocks, there are often geomechanical threats occurring to the designed and existing buildings. They manifest by the occurrence of post-mining voids and deformations created in the Carboniferous layers and related to erosive processes, including karst ones occurring in the rock environment carbonate. Various geophysical research methods, including electrical resistivity imaging, find application in the assessment of def… Show more
