Based on the geological conditions of 6# coal seam and 8# coal seam in Xieqiao Coal Mine, to determine reasonable entry layout of lower seam in multi-seam mining, alternate internal entry layout, alternate exterior entry layout and overlapping entry layout were put forward and simulated by FLAC3D. Then stress distribution and displacement characteristics of surrounding rock were analyzed in the three ways of entry layout, leading to the conclusion that alternate internal entry layout is a better choice for multi-seam mining, for which makes the entry located in stress reduce zone and reduces the influence of abutment pressure of upper coal seam mining to a certain extent,. And the mining practice of Xieqiao Coal Mine tested the results, which will offer a beneficial reference for entry layout with similar geological conditions in multi-seam mining.

Abstract In the process of longwall top coal caving, the selection of the top coal caving interval along the advancing direction of the working face has an important effect on the top coal recovery. To explore a realistic top coal caving interval of the longwall top coal caving working face, longwall top coal caving panel 8202 in the Tongxin Coal Mine is used as an example, and 30 numerical simulation models are established by using Continuum-based Distinct Element Method (CDEM) simulation software to study the top coal recovery with 4.0 m, 8.0 m, 12.0 m, 16.0 m, 20.0 m and 24.0 m top coal thicknesses and 0.8 m, 1.0 m, 1.2 m, 1.6 m and 2.4 m top coal caving intervals. The results show that with an increase in the top coal caving interval, the single top coal caving amount increases. The top coal recovery is the highest with a 0.8 m top coal caving interval when the thickness of the top coal is less than 4.0 m, and it is the highest with a 1.2 m top coal caving interval when the coal seam thickness is greater than 4.0 m. These results provide a reference for the selection of a realistic top coal caving interval in thick coal seam caving mining.

The water inrush of a working face is the main hidden danger to the safe mining of underwater coal seams. It is known that the development of water-flowing fractured zones in overlying strata is the basic path which causes water inrushes in working faces. In the engineering background of the underwater mining in the Longkou Mining Area, the analysis model and judgment method of crack propagation were created on the basis of the Mohr–Coulomb criterion. Fish language was used to couple the extension model into the FLAC3d software, in order to simulate the mining process of the underwater coal seam, as well as to analyze the initiation evolutionary characteristics and seepage laws of the fractured zones in the overlying strata during the advancing processes of the working face. The results showed that, during the coal seam mining process, the mining fractured zones which had been caused by the compression-shear and tension-shear were mainly concentrated in the overlying strata of the working face. Also, the open-off cut and mining working face were the key sections of the water inrush in the rock mass. The condition of the water disaster was the formation of a water inrush channel. The possible water inrush channels in underwater coal mining are mainly composed of water-flowing fractured zones which are formed during the excavation processes. The numerical simulation results were validated through the practical engineering of field observations on the height of water-flowing fractured zone, which displayed a favorable adaptability.

The surrounding rock of the roadway under double gobs in the lower coal seams is partially damaged by the mining of the upper coal seam and the stress superimposition of the stepped coal pillars. What is worse, the upper layer of the roof is collapse gangue in double gobs, which makes the anchor cable unable to anchor the reliable bearing layer, so the anchoring performance is weakened. The actual drawing forces of the anchor bolt and anchor cable are only approximately 50 kN and 80 kN, respectively. The roadway develops cracks and large deformations with increasing difficulty in achieving safe ventilation. In view of the above problems, taking the close coal seam mining in the Zhengwen Coal Mine as the engineering background, a theoretical calculation is used to obtain the loading of the step coal pillars and the slip line field distribution of the floor depth. The numerical simulation monitors the stress superimposition of stepped coal pillars and the distribution of elastoplastic areas to effectively evaluate the layout of mining roadways. The numerical simulation also analyzes the effective prestress field distribution of the broken roof and grouting roof anchor cable. A laboratory test was used to monitor the strength of the grouting test block of the broken coal body. Then, we proposed that grouting anchor cable be used to strengthen the weak surface of the roof and block the roof cracks. From on-site measurement, the roadway was seen to be arranged in the lateral stress stabilization area of the stepped coal pillars, the combined support technology of the grouting anchor cable (bolt) + U type steel + a single prop was adopted, the roadway deformation was small, the gas influx was reduced, and the drawing force of the anchor bolt and the anchor cable was increased to approximately 160 kN and 350 kN, respectively. The overall design and control technology of the roadway can meet the site safety and efficient production requirements.

Because of thick coal seam mining method selection is not only affected by coal seam geological conditions, but also limited by workers, and not fully utilization of experts` experience, the effect of tradition coal mining method selection methods are not ideal. The thick coal seam mining method prediction model based on artificial neural network (TCSMMPM-ANN) was established through the analysis of thick coal seam mining by using Levenberg – Marquardt (L-M) improved algorithm to train network, the simulation results of network test show that this model can provide a new research idea for thick coal seam mining method optimal selection and face economic and technical index prediction, it will have a broad prospect in thick coal mining.
