According to current needs of the economy of the Polish Republic and prospects related to accession to the European Union, the Strata Mechanics Research Institute directed its activity towards application of informatics and high technologies within the frames of the program of statutory activity, theme of which is:
Phenomena in fluids and rock media including their interactions
The main directions of the program comprise:
-
Development of forecasting of hazards to the sub and surface infrastructure related to the rock media, with application of computer simulation.
-
Feasibility studies concerning construction of underground fuel and waste (including toxic waste) storage facilities.
-
New methods and devices for measurement of parameters related to the flow of gases
-
Development of ventilation process forecasting supported by monitoring and numerical simulation.
