The problem discussed in the paper is the estimation of the changes concerning spatial configuration of a body, forced by underground influence, Observations of the real process show that the trajectories indicating the dislocations of the medium points are irregular. The deterministic description of the examined process, as a rule, generates smooth trajectories of point dislocation. Therefore, as is natural, the analytical representation of the process cannot be approximated to measurement results with arbitrary accuracy. The entropy has been assumed as the measure of the randomness of a given process. It has been shown then that the entropy is not constant. Hence the description of the post-mining dislocation process has been presented as a stochastic model. The quantitative results of the description have been put to a statistical estimation.}, type={Article}, title={The characteristics of the kinematics of the post-mining dislocation process}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/121420/PDF-MASTER/3_GK_VOL%2053_NO%203_4_2004_Piwowarski_Charakterystyka.pdf}, keywords={dislocation structure, entropy, kinematics, trajectories}, }
