The study of evolution laws of the mining-induced stress in floor strata affected by overhead mining is extremely important with respect to the stability and support of a floor roadway. Based on the geological conditions of the drainage roadway in the 10th district in a coalmine, a mechanical model of a working face for overhead mining over the roadway is established, and the laws influencing mining stress on the roadway in different layers are obtained. The evolution of mining stress in floor with different horizontal distances between the working face and the floor roadway that is defined as LD are examined by utilizing UDEC numerical simulation, and the stability of roadway is analyzed. The results of the numerical simulation are verified via on-site tests of the deformation of the surrounding rocks and bolts pull-out from the drainage roadway. The results indicate that the mining stress in floor is high, which decreases slowly within a depth of less than 40 m where the floor roadway is significantly affected. The mining stress in the floor increases gradually, and the effect of the mining on the roadway is particularly evident within 0 m ≤ LD ≤ 40 m. Although the floor roadway is in a stress-relaxed state, the worst stability of the surrounding rocks is observed during the range -20 m ≤ LD < 0 m, in which the negative value indicates that the working face has passed the roadway. The roadway is affected by the recovery of the abutment stress in the goaf when -60 m ≤ LD <20 m, and thus it is important to focus on the strengthening support. The results may provide a scientific basis for establishing a reasonable location and support of roadways under similar conditions.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of feeding scheme on melt flow and temperature field during the steady-state of level-pour direct-chill (DC) casting of A390 alloy hollow billet and optimize the design of feeding scheme. Design/methodology/approach – Melt flow and temperature field are investigated by numerical simulation, which is based on a three-dimensional mathematical model and well verified by experiments. Findings – The numerical results reveal that both melt flow and temperature field are obviously affected by the feeding scheme. The homogeneity of melt flow and temperature field in hollow billet with the feeding scheme of modified four inlets are better than the other feeding schemes. Experimental results show that crack can be eliminated by increasing the number of feeding inlets. The primary Si size appears unaffected while the distribution of primary Si particles is highly affected by the change of feeding scheme. Only with the feeding scheme of modified four inlets can fine and uniformly distributed primary Si particles be achieved. Practical implications – The paper includes implications for the design of feeding scheme in level-pour DC casting of hollow billet for practical use. Originality/value – This paper develops different feeding schemes for level-pour DC casting of hollow billet and optimizes the design of feeding scheme.

In order to finish some special operations, the chaotic vibrating motor with two-level partial blocks is constructed. Mechanism principles are designed and dynamics of mechanical model is analyzed by using Lagrange method. Based on the initial sensitivity, non-repetition and complexity of phase-trajectory, many characteristics of chaotic vibration are verified in the vibrating system. It is found the vibrating system with wide power spectrum can achieve some special properties like transient high-intensity, super high-intensity and large vibrating amplitude. It is important to overcome some work barriers and solve some technological bottlenecks of vibrating machinery.

Abstract When gob-side entry retaining is adopted in mining face with large cutting height, due to large stope space, strong dynamic pressure and other reasons, the filling body is usually broken and unstable due to improper width of filling body, and the stability of surrounding rock of roadway is poor. Therefore, this paper will take Shaqu mine as the engineering background to study the reasonable filling body width of gob-side entry retaining in mining face with large cutting height. Firstly, the stability factors of gob-side entry retaining in mining face with large cutting height are analyzed, and the mechanical model of bearing structure of gob-side entry retaining is established based on the lateral pressure and overlying load of filling body, and the reasonable width of filling body is obtained quantitatively; Numerical simulation is used to analyze the evolution of vertical stress, vertical displacement and plastic zone of working face with the change of filling body width. Finally, combined with the deformation observation results of 24207 gob-side entry retaining roof, two sides and filling body, the rationality of filling body width is verified. The results show that: the setting of the width and strength of the filling body plays an important role in the stability of gob-side entry retaining. According to the mechanical model, the minimum width of the filling body is 2.2m in the lateral direction and 3.9m in the vertical direction; Numerical simulation shows that when the width of filling body is too small, with the increase of filling body width, the vertical stress of filling body increases gradually. When the width of filling body reaches a certain value, the vertical stress decreases with the increase of width, and the stress concentration area will change from symmetrical type to eccentric load type, from the middle of filling body to the side of filling body near gob. If the width of the filling body is too small, the filling body will be too broken to bear the load, resulting in too small vertical stress and too large vertical displacement of the roadway roof. The larger the width of the filling body is, the greater the cutting resistance is, the more timely the side roof of the gob can be cut off, the less the stress of the roadway and the filling body, and the more stable the retained roadway is. Finally, through the observation of 24207 gob-side entry retaining, the total deformation of two sides and roof and floor of roadway tends to be stable after 665mm and 597mm respectively. The roof of roadway does not appear severe subsidence and obvious cracking, and the floor does not appear too large floor heave. The effect of roadway retaining is good, which indicates that 4m support can meet the needs of practical engineering.
