Purpose. The purpose is to develop the calculation methods for minimizing the load on the fastening system of the preparatory mine working in difficult mining and geological conditions of its maintenance. Methods. By analysing the multivariate computational experiments on the study of the stress-strain state of the load-bearing elements of the ‘massif – support’ system in the preparatory mine workings by means of the finite-element method, as well as mine observations and measurements of displacement in the coal-overlaying rock formation. Findings. An algorithm has been developed for searching the rational modes of the fastening system resistance and methods for minimizing the load on the support of the preparatory mine working, maintained in very complex mining and geological conditions. Originality.The methodical principles have been developed of minimizing the load on the fastening system of the preparatory mine working, which are based on the use of a combination of stress-strain state studies of the ‘massif – support’ system by means of the finite element method and provisions of normative documents for calculating the dimensions of the dome of natural equilibrium of the mine working roof rocks. Practical implications. The operation modes optimisation of the load-bearing elements interaction of the mine working fastening system reduces the material and labour costs during its construction and increases its stability during operation. Keywords: analysis, calculation, optimization, support, preparatory mine working, stope works, roof rocks, collapse

The degree of influence has been determined of diversified deformation-strength characteristics of load-bearing elements in the fastening system of the preparatory mine workings, while maintaining them in a laminal massif of soft rocks. The analysis has been performed of multivariate computational experiments of the stress-strain state of the load-bearing elements of the fastening system in the preparatory mine workings from the position of the mutual influence of their deformation-strength characteristics and the support loading as a whole. An analysis is represented of the mutual influence of the operation modes of the mine working support elements between themselves and the fastening system as a whole; it has been studied the stress-strain state of the mine working fastening system with a central hydraulic prop stay, as well as a significant increase in reliability of the support performance has been analysed and determined. The tendency has been substantiated of minimizing the load on the mine working fastening system – increasing the coherence of the diversified operation modes of fastening elements by enhancing preferentially the yielding property of the rigid element. The application has been substantiated of the central yielding prop stays of the strengthening support of a frame in case of intensive rock pressure manifestation in the zone of the stope works active influence.

Coal powers the Indian economy. Over 70% of the entire power generated in the country is coal based. Coal India produces over 84% of the entire country's coal. As coal mining is a capital intensive industry, it is important to maximize productivity. This paper explores how adoption of “Kayakalp” Model of e- governance in CCL, a subsidiary of Coal India, resulted in complete transformation of the company in terms of production and productivity. The fuzzy based decision support system has investigated this fact.

The modification of the technology roof bolt supporting of mine workings in the conditions of increasing the coal mining intensity has been made. The technological schemes have been developed for the phased construction of roof bolting and frame support. This schemes make it possible to temporarily postpone the setting of frames in the mine working face, reduce the time and labour intensity for covering with a grid of the mine working arch and setting the bolts, as well as to increase the safety. The analysis of changes in the stress state of the border massif during the phased construction of roof bolting and frame support has been made. It is shown that the technology of phased construction of roof bolting and frame support ensures the maintaining a stable state of host rocks. In addition, the time between the extraction of the coal-rock mass and the setting of the primary support, as well as the distance between the face and the first row of roof bolts has been reduced to a minimum. The suggested approach makes possible to ensure the rate of preparatory mine workings development that are necessary for the intensification coal mining.

Importance of numerical modeling in mine design gained pace after modern way of approach took birth through many variants. Methods such as Continuum and Discontinuum emerge as most effective in resolving certain issues. Cases such as heterogeneity, prevailing boundary conditions in continuum case and presence of discontinuities in other have provided solutions for many causes. A suitable support system is designed for deep virgin coal mining blocks of Godavari Valley Coalfield in India. This analysis is carried out using numerical modeling technique. The results show that the stresses at an angle to the level galleries are adverse. The level gallery/dip-raise may be oriented at 200 to 400 to reduce roof problems.

Abstract Importance of support system in mine design gained pace after modern way of approach took birth through many variants. A suitable support system is designed for deep virgin coal mining blocks of Godavari valley coalfield in India. This is achieved by measuring stress state by sophisticated method followed by geotechnical hazard mapping for identifying potential roof instability, predict hazards in advance and integrating the above parameters for analyze effects on stress due to different mining geometries by using numerical modelling technique. The three-dimensional numerical analysis study pours much light on effects causing instability than the 2D program. The results show that the stresses at an angle to the Level galleries are adverse. The level gallery/dip-raise may be oriented at 200 to 400 to reduce roof problems.

AbstractSystematic, large-scale, aerial photography is now available for many areas of the exposed coalfields. In West Yorkshire 1:10000 or 1:10 560 scale cover is generally available, supplemented by 1:5000 and 1:3000 cover in more limited areas. Examination of aerial photographs, in conjunction with detailed geological mapping, has identified characteristic ground patterns associated with the existence of former shallow workings. These patterns are interpreted in terms of changes of style of mining with increasing depth.The presence of shallow mine workings is a major constraint on planning in areas of exposed coalfield. The examination of large scale aerial photographs offers a rapid reconnaissance method of identifying such workings.
