Taking the whole surrounding rock of an excavation roadway as the research object, the elastoplastic failure mechanics analysis of the surrounding rock body of the excavated roadway under three-directional in situ stresses is carried out by using the knowledge of generalized plane strain problems and unified strength theory, and the equations are derived for the elastic-plastic zone stress together with the plastic fracture range of the roadway floor surrounding rock under three-directional in situ stresses. At the same time, by means of the conclusion of mechanical analysis and the results of in situ detection of in situ stress in the Changcun mining area, the stability of the roadway floor surrounding rock was analyzed. The analysis reveals the influence on the stability of the roadway floor surrounding rock between the spatial relationship with the different in situ stresses and the roadway layout; meanwhile, it calculates the range of the plastic failure zone and the stress value of the #1 roadway floor in the S6 mining area of Changcun mine, which provides a reliable theoretical mechanical reference for research on roadway floor heave control technology.

φThe circular tunnel is a common structure in civil engineering. Mohr-Coulomb strength theory has been used to analyses pressure tunnel in the field of rock engineering for many years. Because it could only solve the problems with one kind of material, the application of the theory was greatly restricted. In this paper, the formulas calculating yield range and stresses are deduced based on the proper choice of the first principal stress used in the unified strength theory according to loads and in-situ stresses. The applicability formulas is gained based on the critical pressures, which can be obtained in other situations or strength thoeries simplified by assuming the parameter value in the formula. An example is analyzed, and the yield range versus the inner pressure and stress distribution are presented. Results are compared to those based on the traditional method and significant disparity is observed. The results indicate that the coefficient b, cohesion c, friction angle φ all have significant influences on the yield range and stresses.

The stability judgement of surrounding rock is one of the key jobs in tunnel engineering. Taking the Erlongdong fault bundle section of Guanjiao Tunnel as the background, the stability of surrounding rock during construction of soft rock tunnel was discussed preliminarily. Based on plastic strain catastrophe theory, and combining numerical results and in-situ data, the limit displacements for stability of surrounding rock were analyzed and obtained corresponding to the in-situ monitoring technology. It shows that the limit displacements obtained corresponds to engineering practice primarily. The plastic strain catastrophe theory under unloading condition provides new thought for ground stability of deep soft rock tunnel and can be good guidance and valuable reference to construction decision making and deformation managing of similar tunnels.

The deformation and failure of tunnel surrounding rock is the result of tunnel excavation disturbance and rock stress release. When the local stress of surrounding rock exceeds the elastic limit of rock mass, the plastic analysis of surrounding rock must be carried out to judge the stability of tunnel. In this study, the Lade–Duncan yield criterion is used to calculate the analytic solutions for the surrounding rock in a tunnel, and the radius and displacement of the plastic zone are deduced using an equilibrium equation. The plastic zone radius and displacement based on Lade–Duncan criterion and Mohr–Coulomb criterion were compared by using single-factor analysis method under the different internal friction angles, in situ stresses, and support resistances. The results show that the solutions of the radius and displacement of plastic zone calculated by the Lade–Duncan criterion are close to those of Mohr–Coulomb criterion under the high internal friction angle and support resistance or low in situ rock stress; however, the radius and displacement of the plastic zone calculated by the Lade–Duncan criterion are larger under normal circumstances, and the Lade–Duncan criterion is more applicable to the stability analysis of the surrounding rock in a tunnel.

In recent years, experimental and numerical researches on the effect of blasting pressure on the stability of existing tunnels was widely obtained. However, the effect of the blasting pressure during excavation a new tunnel or expansion old tunnels on an existing tunnel has disadvantages and still unclear. Some researches were carried out to study the relationship of the observed Peak Particle Velocity (PPV) on the lining areas along the existing tunnel direction, due to either the lack of in situ test data or the difficulty in conducting field tests, particularly for tunnels that are usually old and vulnerable after several decades of service. This paper introduces using numerical methods with the field data investigations on the effect of the blasting in a new tunnel on the surrounding rock mass and on the existing tunnel. The research results show that not only predicting the tunnel lining damage zone under the impact of blast loads but also determination peak maximum of explosion at the same time at the surface of tunnel working.

In this paper, the unified strength theory proposed by Yu Mao-hong in 1991 is used to develop new strength formulae for rock surrounding a tunnel. The new formulae can be applied to an elastic–plastic material. The formulae have a series of expressions with the unified parameter, especially variations such as the well-known Kastner and Airy formulae, which are widely used in rock mechanics and engineering. These formulae are derived on the basis of the Mohr–Coulomb strength criterion. For the strength-weakening (plastic-softening) of geomaterials, the analytical solutions for the radius of the plastic residual zones, radius of the plastic-softening zones, and displacement around the opening are presented according to the elastoplastic-softening – residual plastic, tri-linear stress–strain model. In addition, the derivation for the stress state in the surrounding rock is given. The Kastner formula, Airy formula, and available solutions can be considered as special cases in the new strength formula. The influence of softening, shear dilatancy, and different strength models on the results is analyzed. The results presented in this paper are useful for analyzing surrounding rock with various stress conditions and reinforcement of caves.

In order to find out themicroscopic structure and determine mineral composition and relative content ofroadway soft rock in Shajihai mining area, this paper carried out experimentsof scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis and X-ray diffraction analysis.SEM test results show that the microstructure of the surrounding rock isgenerally poor and joint, crack, pore are developed. The crack is easy toexpand under the effect of surrounding rock pressure and water, which makesrock mass more broken and greatly reduces the stability of surrounding rock.X-ray diffraction analysis test shows that the component content of clayminerals in the surrounding rock is high. Clay mineral in mudstone containsmontmorillonite and content of illite/smectite mixed layer is relativelyhigher, up to 45%. In conclusion, soft rock roadway of Shajihai mine areabelongs to the typical swelling-jointed compound soft rock. The targeted andreasonable compound transformation technology and coupling support measuresmust be adopted when supporting.

In order to evaluate the stability of deep surrounding rock, all of the affecting factors should be theoretically identified. However, some factors have slight impacts on the stability of deep surrounding rock compared with others. To conduct an effective risk assessment, key factors should be first extracted. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and grey relation analysis (GRA) methods are integrated to determine the key factors. First, the AHP method is applied to sort the factors by calculating the weights of them. Seven out of fifteen factors are extracted as the key factors, which account for 80% of the weights. Further, the GCA method is used to validate the effects of these key factors by analyzing the correlation between the performance of each factor and that of the reference. Considering the influence of these key factors and experts’ judgements, the multilevel fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is adopted to obtain the risk level of the deep surrounding rock stability. Finally, the risk assessment of the deep surrounding rock in the E-Zhuang coal mine of Chinese Xinwen Mining Area illustrates the operability of the proposed method.
