Taking the occurrence conditions of the hard main roof in the deep 13-1 coal mining roadway in Huainan mining area as the research object, based on the mechanical parameters of the surrounding rock and the stress state of the main roof obtained by numerical simulation, a simply supported beam calculation model was established based on the damage factor D, main roof support reaction RA, RB, and critical range C (9 m) and B (7 m) at the elastoplastic junction of the solid coal side and mining face side (hereinafter referred to as “junction”). Considering that the damage area still has a large bearing capacity, the vertical stress of the main roof at the junction is K1γH (0.05γh, 0.15γh, and 0.25γh) and K2γH (0.01γh, 0.10γh, and 0.2γh). The maximum deflection is 21 mm, 324 mm, and 627.6 mm, respectively. According to the criterion of tensile failure, the maximum bending moment of the top beam is 209 mN·m at the side of the working face 3.1 m away from the roadway side when K1 = 0.15 and K2 = 0.10, and the whole hard main roof is in tensile failure except the junction. To control the stability of the top beam and simplify the supporting reaction to limit the deformation of the slope angle, RC and RD are used to construct the statically indeterminate beam. By adding an anchor cable and advance self-moving support to the roadway side angle, the problem of difficult control of the surrounding rock with a large deformation of the side angle roof is solved, which provides a reference for roof control under similar conditions.

With the deployment of China’s energy strategy in the western regions, complex geological mining conditions such as thin bedrock and ultrathick seams in western China have caused a series of problems such as serious deformation of the surrounding rock at the ends of the working face and the increase in the lead abutment pressure of the roadways; the research on end roof deformation in the resource exploitation in western China has become one of the great demands of the industry. Based on the failure characteristics of rock mass, relying on the actual mining geological conditions of a coal mine in Inner Mongolia, the failure characteristics of the overlying rock strata under the influence of mining were simulated and analyzed using similar material simulation experiment, which intuitively reproduced the failure and deformation processes of the immediate roof, main roof, and key strata and revealed the mechanical mechanism of the directional weakening of the end roof. It is of great significance for the stability control of the surrounding rock at the end of the fully mechanized caving face in the thin bedrocks and ultrathick seams, reducing the abutment pressure of gate roadway and controlling the spontaneous combustion of residual coal in the goaf.

Gob-side entry retaining through precut overhanging hard roof (GERPOHR) method is one of the commonly used methods for nonpillar mining. However, feasibility studies of controlling rockburst by this method are few. Rockburst occurs in hard thick strata with a higher probability, larger scale, and higher risk. To better understand the GERPOHR method is beneficial for rockburst mitigation. In this paper, the design of GERPOHR was first introduced. And the layout of the working face was optimized. Then, based on the numerical simulation, the stress and displacement distribution characteristics were compared under the condition of conventional mining and GERPOHR method. The research shows that the intervals of main roof weighting could be decreased through the precut overhanging hard roof method. And the peak value of abutment pressure decreased. Meanwhile, the energy accumulation and the stress fluctuation could be alleviated in roadway surrounding rock.

Slope stability analysis is important for the safe mining of mineral resources. The collapse of goafs in loess gullies can lead to natural disasters such as surface landslides. In this context, this study analyzes monitoring data obtained from surface observation in the Shendong mining area of the Hanjiawan coal mine based on the geological conditions therein. The monitoring results show that the working face experiences a starting period, an active period, and a declining period, from the start of mining to the end of the working face. At the initial mining stage, there is no evident surface movement or deformation in the mining area. When the advance distance of the 12106 working face is between 13 m and 109 m, the surface movement and deformation vary significantly, and the maximum subsidence reaches 1963 mm, which is enough to cause landslides. We select the physical and mechanical parameters of the rock and soil in the mine and then simulate the formation mechanism of surface landslides under different slope angles of the mining area using FLAC3D software. Because of the collapse of the mined-out area, the overlying strata structure is destroyed, the subsidence basin is shifted to the center as a whole, and the slope mass is subjected to tensile and compression deformation, resulting in plastic damage, which develops downward along the crack and leads to a collapse because of the discontinuous movement and deformation of the surface; moreover, step-type ground fissures are produced. The results also show that when the slope angle is greater than 60°, the displacement of the slope mass is not uniform, and the rock stratum in a position with large displacement loses its support, leading to landslides; when the slope angle is less than 30°, the bedrock surface forms a sliding surface and develops to the surface, thus decreasing the possibility of landslides. Based on the stability analysis of the collapsed slope in the goaf of the loess gully, a scientific basis is provided for the effective prevention and control of geological disasters in the Shendong mining area.

Abstract Scientific mining is based on breaking regularity of roof above underground working face in coal mine. In order to explore the primary breaking pattern of main roof above the first working face, on account of theory of thin elastic plate, development of the breaking in each region of main roof is analyzed and the breaking sequence of each region is explored in virtue of main bending moment taken as the breaking parameter. The results indicate that the first broken point of main roof is midpoint of the long side. The breaking, which occurs on the top surface of main roof, is caused by the second main bending moment. The fracture in long side region starts from midpoint of the long side and develops along the length direction of the working face. The fracture in middle region starts from the center of main roof and develops along the length direction of the working face. The fracture in short side region starts from midpoint of the short side and develops along advance direction of the working face. There always is an extreme value order of control moment in each region, Mc > Mz > Md, when a single parameter is within a reasonable range. Due to this, the breaking sequence is the long side region, the middle region and the short side region although they end up with the same breaking pattern O-X. Mc, Mz and Md depend on the advance distance of working face and increase linearly with transverse loading. Besides, the short side of main roof becomes stable with the increase of the length of working face. Revealing the primary breaking pattern of main roof above the first working face contributes to learning breaking behavior of main roof and providing theoretical support for design of the working face and roof management.

Roof sliding and instability along the coal wall usually occur in the working face at large mining heights during the process of the first weighting, which causes roof cutting and support crushing. A mechanical model consists of the main roof, immediate roof, and support based on the nonlinear characteristics of the failure and instability of the immediate roof under the abutment pressure, which we constructed to study the step sinking of the main roof, as well as to assign the reasonable value of the support resistance during the first weighting. The instability mechanism of the system was studied by the catastrophe theory and the principle of energy conservation. A conclusion was drawn that the combined cantilever beam structure for the immediate roof will form with the increase of the mining height, and the instability of the immediate roof causes the catastrophic instability of the system. The system instability was found to be related to the stiffness ratio K, material parameters, the load Q, and the first weighting interval of the main roof by analyzing the necessary and sufficient conditions for system instability. The influence degree of each parameter on the stiffness ratio K was as follows: elastic modulus E > support stiffness k1 > cross-section area a > immediate roof thickness H. The calculation equations of support resistance and subsidence of roof step were obtained. The method of judging the roof instability using catastrophe theory was proved as reasonable on the basis of the monitoring example of no. 12401 working face in Shendong mining area, China. On this basis, a reasonable value of support resistance was further calculated, and the working face was maintained safely when the support resistance exceeded 19,232 kN.

In this study, the 31113 fully mechanised working face in the Lijiahao Coal Mine was selected as the project background. The failure characteristics and optimum spacing of a double-withdrawal-channel surrounding rock were extensively investigated through field measurements, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulations. The following results were obtained. The loading influence range of the working face was fixed. Under the influence of mining, the stress distribution variation in the double-withdrawal channels with spacing and the influence of stress distribution on the surrounding rock stability of the withdrawal channels were determined. The optimum distance between the double-withdrawal channels to achieve the stability of the surrounding rock was at least 25 m, and engineering measures are required to limit the mining height in the final mining stage. The rationality of the main and auxiliary withdrawal channel spacing of 25 m and measures to limit the mining height in the final stage were demonstrated. The findings of this study provide a valuable reference for constructing the layout of withdrawal channels in the adjacent working faces of the same mining area.

In order to effectively control deep roadway under mining influence, based on the typical engineering geological conditions of Dingji coalmine in Huainan mining area, we researched on the laws of stress evolution and failure mechanism of roadway influenced by working face advancing by using numerical simulation and applying field test. The results showed that the surrounding rock stress of roadway ribs increased gradually with face advancing, vertical stress peak transfer to in-depth of roadway surrounding rock, the trend of roadway surface displacement variation consistent with corresponding stress variation. An appropriate coal pillar size (105 m) was proposed. We put forward the basic ideas for surrounding rock controlling and surrounding rock reinforce technology, namely U-steel support back grouting and bolt-cable cooperative supporting. By roadway deformation, roof layer separation and borehole detecting, we found out that displacement of roadway ribs was less than 250 mm, subsidence of roof was less than 110 mm, and the roadway deformation has been effectively controlled.

This paper studies and introduces the successful case of gob-side entry retaining technology and the typical mining pressure law in Luan mining area, which is the main mining coal seam in Qinshui coalfield. Qinshui coalfield has an estimated coal reserve of 300 billion tons, accounting for 9.58% of the total national coal reserve in China, especially anthracite, chemical coal, and coking coal. The methods of field investigation, theoretical analysis, physical experiment, and industrial test are adopted. Through the field investigation, theoretical analysis, physical experiments, and industrial test, the following conclusions have been drawn in this study: (1) A thorough engineering geological investigation was conducted on the entry retaining along the gob side on noncoal pillar mining working face, which covers multiple periods of mining process including the roadway excavation period, primary mining period, primary mining stability period, and secondary mining influence period. A series of analysis and tests were conducted such as core sampling, rock mechanics property testing, borehole detection, and flexible formwork support evaluation, which laid a foundation for identifying the mining pressure law of gob-side entry retaining by using noncoal pillar mining. (2) The mining pressure law was studied through the collection of the field measurements taken from the entry retaining along the gob side on noncoal pillar mining working face. The keys to achieve the roadway surrounding rock stability through noncoal pillar mining are obtained. According to the study, the stability control of retained roadway surrounding rock mainly depends on the stability of top coal, coal side, and shoulder angle coal. (3) In this study, a roadway reinforcement scheme is proposed to improve the surrounding rock control technology for gob-side entry retaining by noncoal pillar mining, whose effectiveness has been verified by a series of industrial test. Therefore, the wide adoption of the noncoal pillar mining method in Number #3 coal mine can significantly relieve the predicament of coal pressing under a large number of buildings in Luan mining area, which provides insightful guidance to the coal-free pillar mining in the whole Luan mining area.

This article focuses on the energy density alteration during non-pillar mining method of goaf-side entry retaining by roof cutting (GERRC) and adjacent working face mining. We also studied the support control strategy of goaf-side roadway. Numerical calculation model is established, and the parameters of the model are verified by the measured advance abutment pressure and numerical solution. Based on the numerical model, the energy density during mining is studied. It is found that the whole energy evolution pattern of the goaf side entry during the two adjacent working face mining includes: the original rock energy, the advance energy of the current working face, the dynamic lateral abutment energy caused by strata movement, the lateral abutment energy of the adjacent working face. The support body failure and surrounding rock large deformation phenomenon often occur in goaf side roadway, which is influenced by multiple energy disturbances. Research shows that strong stress disturbance of surrounding rock generates in front of the working face 23 m and behind of working face 60 m in GERRC method. In the second goaf-side entry retaining, the range is in front of the working face 47 m. The evolution law of energy field puts forward the strategy of using the high constant resistance and large deformation (CRLD) anchor cable and procured preferable effect.
