The problem for the Study Group was to investigate whether an optimal model of dragline operation could be developed. The Study Group modelled the sequence of operations for a typical surface mining strip. Overall, a simulation approach seems necessary to fully represent the dragline operation. Some aspects of the operations that are amenable to optimisation are described in this report. date: 1993 citation: Sier, D. (1993) Optimised dragline planning model.
