In the engineering of high stress area, the measures to control the stability of surrounding rock by reducing excavation footage and excavation speed are to adjust the unloading rate of surrounding rock caused by excavation. In this study, unloading creep tests of marble under high stress conditions were carried out to study the effect of unloading rate. Research results showed that the axial and lateral instantaneous strain and creep strain of the sample increased with the increase of unloading rate; the lateral creep characteristic of marble under unloading condition was stronger than that of axial creep characteristic, and it was more obvious with the increase of unloading rate; the failure of specimens under unloading creep condition was mainly caused by the rapid increase of lateral strain, and the brittleness of rock was increasing with the increase of unloading rate. The Burgers model was used to describe the creep curves of specimens, and the variation of the parameters with the unloading rate was analyzed. The fitting results showed that the instantaneous elastic modulus E1, E'1 and the viscosity coefficients η1, η'1 all decreased with the increase of the unloading rate, which can be described by linear relationship within the unloading rate range of this experiment. Compared with the time of whole creep tests, the time for each specimen to enter the steady-state creep was similar, it was considered that the effect of unloading rate on η2/E2 and η'2/E'2 can be ignored.

Creep strength and life of material is closely related with the microstructural characteristics. Components used under creep condition for long time are unable to maintain the stability of microstructure and experience degradation of material. From this viewpoint, it is necessary for safety and residual life of power plant to investigate creep properties of specimens prepared from the material cut directly from the operating service components. The small punch test has been developed as a useful method to estimate mechanical properties because of its miniaturized specimen size. In this study, small punch creep tests were carried out to investigate the effect of aging time on creep properties using P92 steel aged from 0~12100 hrs at 600°C.

Specimens of potash rock from the Rocanville mine of the Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan were subjected to uniaxial compression tests and to time-dependent creep tests under static, uniaxial loading.During the first cycle of loading, the main sources of the measured strain are compaction and dilation at grain boundaries and consolidation of the clay phase. The crystals of halite and sylvite deform elastically at low stress and in a brittle manner at high stress. There is little, if any, evidence for constant-volume plastic deformation at any level of uniaxial stress.The stress–strain curve can be divided into three parts, each representing a different dominant deformational process: a low-stress quasi-elastic, an intermediate-stress ductile, and a high-stress brittle mechanism. The three parts are separated by the yield point (1–8 MPa) and the crack initiation point (10–13 MPa). The strength of the Rocanville potash specimens ranged between 15 and 18 MPa.The deformation of potash rock is strongly time dependent. There is evidence for the existence of all three stages of creep: transient, steady-state, and tertiary. There is very little interrelationship between the axial and lateral creep strains; the volumetric strain is negative at low stress and positive (dilatant) at high stress, but rarely, if ever, constant. Key words: creep, dilatant, ductile, elastic, fracture, microfracture, plastic, potash, salt.

Abstract The high stress of the surrounding rock of Hexi Coal Mine easily leads to severe deformation of the retracement channel and the appearance of the mine pressure during the retreat severely affects the stability of the roadway. In order to solve the above problems, a roadway surrounding rock control technology is proposed and tested. The bidirectional energy-concentrated tensile blasting technology is used to perform directional cutting to cut off the stress propagation path. Firstly, the deformation mechanism of the roof is analyzed by establishing the deformation mechanical model of the roof of the retracement channel. Then, according to the geological conditions of working face 3314 and theoretical calculation, the key parameters of roof cutting and pressure releasing of retracement channel are determined, and through the numerical analysis of its cutting effect, the length of cutting seam is 11.5m, and the cutting angle is 10°. Finally, a field test is carried out on the retracement channel of 3314 working face to verify the effect of roof cutting. The results show that the deformation of the retracement channel and the main roadway is very small. In the process of connecting the working face and the retracement channel, the maximum roof to floor convergence is 141mm, and the two sides convergence is 79mm. After the hydraulic support was retracted, the maximum roof to floor convergence of the surrounding rock is 37 mm, and the two sides convergence is 33mm. The roof cutting and pressure releasing of the retracement channel ensures the safe evacuation of the equipment and the stability of the main roadway. The cutting effect is obvious for the release of pressure, which is of great significance to engineering practice.

In this study, the analysis and control of stability of surrounding rock in deep fractured soft rock roadway located in the underground mine of Jinfeng gold mine in Guizhou Province, China, has been investigated. The surrounding rock of roadway has been analyzed to characterize its deformation and failure mechanism through field survey, testing of rock physical and mechanical properties, in situ stress measure, analysis of mineral components of rock, and investigation of rock fragmentation degree. Based on the numerical simulation technology, the influence of different factors on the stability of roadway is studied. The physical and mechanical properties of surrounding rock and the bearing capacity of surrounding rock layer are to be improved to maintain the stability of broken soft rock roadway as high ground stress, rock fragmentation, and poor lithology leading to tunnel instability. Hence, a high-strength “cable bolt + fiber-reinforced shotcrete + steel mesh + split sets + resin bolt + cement grouting” combined support system has been proposed to improve the effective bearing structure significantly with high integrity and bearing capacity.

Based on geological conditions of 3318 working face haulage roadway in Xuchang Coal Mine, as well as the space-time relationship with surrounding gob, theoretical analysis and numerical simulation were used to study the influence of fault structure on the original rock stress of 3318 working face transport roadway. Considering the composite action of the leading supporting pressure of 3318 working face and the structure and the lateral supporting pressure of gob, the stress distribution and deformation law of roadway under the complex and high-stress condition are studied. The results show that, under the superposition of lateral abutment pressure of goaf and abutment pressure of adjacent working face and fault structure, the peak stress of roadway roof and floor moves to the surface of roadway surrounding rock, and its distribution law changes from obvious symmetry to asymmetry; surrounding rock on both sides of roadway forms asymmetric circular concentrated stress area; roof and floor and two sides of roadway show asymmetric characteristics. This reveals the stability characteristics of roadway surrounding rock under the action of multiple perturbation stresses.

The purpose of this paper is to solve the problem that deep and close-distance cavern and roadway group were easily affected by the adjacent chamber or roadway excavation disturbance and low stability and significant deformation of surrounding rock occurred. The stability and control technology of surrounding rock in the main shaft and auxiliary shaft system has been analyzed by the adjacent chamber and roadway group of −850 m level in Qujiang Mine, China, as an engineering background. Firstly, the numerical calculation of the excavation chamber was, respectively, carried out in different ways with the propagation theory of the excavation disturbance wave. The results show that the interaction of adjacent chamber excavation was more intense. When excavated at the same time, there is a large increase in the movement of the sides and the roof-floor of the chamber and roadway. Then, the mechanism of interaction between low-high stress and excavation disturbance was considered, the corresponding control principles were provided, and a set of critical technologies and equipment were designed according to the deformation characteristics of the large deformation soft surrounding rock. Finally, the comprehensive control method was put forward with the water pump house as an example, that is, anchor, metal net, grouting, combined anchor cable and large-diameter anchor cable. And the related support parameters were determined by the internal damage of the surrounding rock chamber. The numerical simulation results show that the surrounding rock deformation of the chamber and roadway reduced with the revised support program, which the expansion of the rock mass loose circle prevented effectively. The site test shows that the convergence rate of surrounding rock with the improved support was less than 0.2 mm/d, and the rock deformation of chamber and roadway suppressed significantly.

The dip angle, length, spacing, and fracture distance of rock fissure affect the morphology of roadway after collapse. The numerical simulation software CDEM is used to simulate the morphology of roadway collapse. The Monte Carlo model is used to simulate different types of crack models in two-dimensional plane and generate different crack models. The effects of crack angle, crack length, fracture distance, and spacing on the deformation of surrounding rock are analyzed. The influence of different rock burst on the failure strap-fall modes of fissure roadway and roadway in different sections is analyzed, and the stability law of roadway is studied. Under the condition of high stress, the roadway shape has little influence on the distribution of the principal stress difference of surrounding rock, but the equivalent excavation radius determines the distribution of the plastic zone of surrounding rock. The larger the ineffective reinforcement zone is, the larger the deformation around the roadway will be. The decrease of the angle between the structural plane and the vertical stress increases the failure range of the roadway under the gravity burst pressure. Under the horizontal tectonic stress type rock burst, when the structural plane inclination angle is 0°, the two-sided caving body fills the roadway and the roof caving range becomes smaller.

Predicting and controlling the collapse of surrounding rock (especially broken rock masses) in underground chambers is an important topic in mining and geotechnical engineering. Based on an example, this paper introduces a case study of surrounding rock stability control technology in stope mining around abandoned areas. Based on on-site coring, mechanical properties of rock samples, and on-site grouting reinforcement technology, the TRT6000 advanced geological prediction system was used to predict the stability status of the surrounding rock of the underground chamber. AUTODYNA software was used to build a dynamic coupling model for numerical simulation prediction and optimization of blasting parameters and to reveal the dynamic variation in the surrounding rock. The dynamic failure process of the surrounding rock of the chamber before and after optimization of the blasting parameters is simulated, and the deformation characteristics and damage and acoustic emission characteristics of the surrounding rock are clearly shown. The surrounding rock failure first appeared around the surface of the underground chamber because of the high stress concentration around the surface of the chamber after blasting; with the interaction between the explosive gas and the rock mass, the damaged area further propagated into the external rock, eventually leading to a large damage area. At the same time, there is a large tensile failure in the rock, resulting in expansion and rupture around the underground chamber. Finally, the 3D laser scanning method is used to verify the superiority of the optimized blasting initiation sequence. The new edge hole detonation sequence can effectively improve the blasting vibration and successfully control the further damage of the surrounding rock of the underground chamber, thus proving the edge hole drug pack. Moreover, the initiation mode of the delay stage of the side hole charge is determined. This study provides a useful reference for the stability control of surrounding rock in mining in mining areas.

In order to solve the problem of difficult support of the roadway with high stress and large-section broken surrounding rock, this paper takes the subinclined shaft in Gaokeng mine of Jiangxi Province as the engineering background, analyzes the deformation mechanism and support mode of the roadway under the influence of mining through field investigation and mechanical derivation, and concludes that the stress concentration point of the roadway is in the middle point of roof and floor and the middle point of left and right sides. Through the modeling analysis of FLAC3D numerical software and the comparison of various support schemes, it is concluded that, after the combined support method of “anchor, net, and spray + grouting + full-section anchor cable + floor anchor cable“ is adopted, the convergence of roof and floor is reduced by 508 mm, and the convergence of two sides is reduced by 663 mm. And, it is applied in engineering practice. The results show that the combined support scheme can effectively control the stability of the surrounding rock.

Surrounding rock mass stability is one of the key technical problems in the design of the diversion tunnels in Jinping II Hydropower Plant Project. The major difficulties lie in three facts: (1) high stress induced by the great depth; (2) the brittle failure characters of marble; (3) the interaction of these four tunnels. A systemic procedure is introduced in this paper. Firstly, the integration of the code FLAC3D and the multivariate linear regression method is adopted to back analyze the in situ stress field. Then the mechanical parameters of the surrounding rock mass are back analyzed based on the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm and the code FLAC3D. The stress release method is adopted in the numerical analysis of the excavating and supporting process of tunnels by the code FLAC3D. Finally, the multi indexes integration method is presented to analyze and evaluate the stability of the tunnels and to validate the rationality of the design scheme.
