Abstract
Abstract This article presents examples of solutions supporting the design of certain elements of the mining process in coal mines. The focus is on two fuzzy systems: the first supports the selection of equipment for longwall faces (FSES); and the second supports the estimation of production results (FSOE). System FSES generates proposals for equipment in designed longwall faces. The module of fuzzing in this system enables a fuzzing operation for the following quantitative variables: longwall length; longwall height; longitudinal and crosswise incline of the longwall, workability of the coal and thickness of rock vein in a given section of the longwall. The knowledge base includes over 100 fuzzy rules indicating possible options for equipment under specified site conditions. After a proposal of equipment is generated, it is then possible to insert the values obtained into the second system FSOE, which estimates output for a given shift time using the chosen parameters. The module of fuzzing in system FSOE includes 9 variables, which are crucial in determining shift output for the given longwall face. The knowledge base in this system contains over 2000 rules. As a result of the operation of both systems, the designer receives both a proposal of equipment for the designed longwall face and the size of shift output under the given conditions. Operation of the two systems has been presented using a case study.
