Due to the strong impacts of rockbursts in Ostrava-Karvina coalfield, which affect especially roadways and cross-cuts of longwall panels, it is necessary to strengthen standard steel roadways and breakthroughs supports. However it is a little different task in comparison with main solved problems of mining safety (Kidybinski, 2011), the use of reinforcing complementary bolts seems to be very effective. A varieties of numbers and locations of such rockbolts have been analyzed and compared from the viewpoint of the stability under dynamic events on the base of 3D mathematic modeling. The method used for computer modeling has been FEM applied by ANSYS code. It deals with the shape and nature the following issues: the deformation of a steel support, strain and deformation of reinforcing bolts, the critical energy by which a permanent strain is caused and the influential interaction of the adjacent rock on the above mentioned characteristics. A recommendation for number and location of reinforcing complementary bolts is also contained.

In this study, the influence of upper cycle temperature (maximum temperature in a cycle) and the magnitude of applied stress on the functional properties of an SMA during partial thermomechanical cycling has been studied. A near-equiatomic NiTi SMA was chosen and tested under different upper cycle temperatures (between martensite finish (Mf) and austenite finish (Af) temperatures) and stress level (below and above the yield strength of the martensite). The upper cycle temperature was varied by controlling the magnitude of the current supply. The results show that a raise in the upper cycle temperature causes the permanent strain to increase and also lowers the stability. However, decreasing the stress imposed to a value lower than the yield strength of the martensite improves cyclic stability. The upper cycle temperature was found to influence the crack nucleation, whereas the applied stress level the crack propagation during partial thermomechanical cycling of SMAs. Therefore, decreasing the upper cycle temperature as well as the magnitude of stress applied to lower than the yield stress of martensite have been found to be suitable strategies for increasing the lifespan of SMA-based actuators during partial thermomechanical cycling.

Abstract This paper presents a methodology to evaluate transient stability constrained available transfer capability (ATC). A linear and fast line flow–based (LFB) method was adopted to optimize the ATC values. This enabled the direct determination of the system source–sink locations. This paper formulated different market transactions considering bilateral and multilateral impacts in the stability constrained ATC. The proposed method was demonstrated on the WECC 9-bus and IEEE 39-bus systems. The critical energy performance index (CEPI) enabled the direct identification of candidates for contingency screening based on ranking. This index helped to reduce the list of credible contingencies for ATC evaluation and, therefore, the computation time. The results of the proposed ATC method are consistent with the literature and can be deployed for fast assessment of the impact of transactions in an electric power system.

ABSTRACTIon projection lithography (IPL) has demonstrated the ability to replicate high resolution patterns with very short exposure times. Computer modeling of masks used in a hypothetical IPL system Is accomplished to estimate mask distortion during fabrication and exposure. Radiation cooling is shown to play an important role in temperature control. Two different methods of mask temperature control are examined. Results suggest a high degree of pattern stability can be expected from this type of mask.

The problems of stability assessment of the quarry’s southern side during the development of the coal seam D6 are considered. To  assess the stability of the quarry’s southern side in the development  of coalbed outlets, modern research methods are applied: study of  the geological structure and analysis of the adjacent rock mass  state, the creation of an observation station and the production of observations, calculation of stability of adjacent rock mass of the  quarry’s south side and the research results analysis. Quarry’s south  side consists of clayey sediments up to 5 m, then siltstones and  mudstones up to 10-20 m and a coal seam with a capacity of up to  5 m. The substantiation of the calculated strength characteristics of  rocks composing the slopes of the quarry ledges, which determine the stress state of the slopes arising under the influence  of internal and external forces, is done. Instrumental observations of the laid station and the survey of cracks on the quarry’s side allowed  to determine the contours of the deformation zone and the  landslide prism size. A geomechanical model of adjacent rock mass  was created and the stability assessment was carried out for the  geological section along the line of the maximum development  depth. After additional loading on the quarry’s southern side slopes,  the safety factor of stability is nу = 1.69−173, which means active  phase termination of quarry’s side deformation and sustainable condition.

Abstract The gob-side entry driving is driving in low pressure area, which bears less support pressure and is easy to maintain, so it is widely used. Taking the gob-side entry driving in thick coal seam of Dongtan Coal Mine as an example, the reasonable size of pillar and the section of roadway are numerically simulated by combining numerical with measurement, and the roadway support is designed. According to the distribution of lateral stress in working face, eight pillars of different sizes are designed. By simulating and comparing the stress distribution of surrounding rock and the development range and shape of plastic zone in different positions, the pillar size of gob-side entry driving is optimized to be 4.5m. According to the results of optimization of roadway section, the section of straight wall semi-circular arch roadway is adopted. According to the analysis, the roadway is supported by bolt + steel mesh + anchor cable. By observing the stability of roadway, it provides experience for the stability study of roadway the gob-side entry driving with small pillar in thick seam.
