Zambó János: Optimum location of mining facilities (Budapest, 1968)

J. ZAMBÓ OPTIMUM LOCATION OF MINING FACILITIES The first part of the book deals with the fundamental problems of location analysis. It deduces in a very general form and illustrates by a number of examples the law of the minimum sum of weighted averages, and shows how to apply that law in practice. For the optimation of the main parameters of a projected mine (such as the site of the shaft or shafts, the projected output, the size of the shaft field) the knowl­edge of the cost function is re­quired. This function expresses in its most general form the cost of production vs. the main param­eters of the mine. The mathe­matical form of this functional relationship can be established by applying a regression procedure to parameters of mines already in operation. The book deals ex­tensively with the regression tech­niques that yield the cost function. AKADÉMIAI KIADÓ PUBLISHING HOUSE OF THE HUNGARIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES BUDAPEST
