Purpose. carrying out field researches of the conveyor excavation`s state and establishing geomechanical patterns based on the data, that were obtained in the mining and geological conditions of the Krasnolymanska coal mine. Methodology. Mine field researches of the conveyor excavation deformed state, which is under the influence of the longwall face, and moves in time and space, were carried out. The observation was performed by using a measuring station, which included five measuring points. The results of measurements were generalized and the excavation contour deformation features at various stages of mining coal seam were revealed. Results. Dependencies, that characterize the process of coal mass deformation around the mine at various stages of its exploitation. are obtained. During exploitation processes of the conveyor excavation relative to the longwall face, that gradually pass through four geomechanical situations in mining and geological conditions of the Krasnolymanska coal mine, are established – outside influence zone, in the influence zone, within the longwall face, outside the longwall face. These situations differ in the nature of roof and floor deformation, the vertical convergence of which at each stage changes linearly in time and goes to zero at a distance of 23 meters outside the longwall face. These indicators give reason to consider the roof rocks in the longwall as that sink without breaking the continuity, and also to perform the calibration of geomechanical models based on this. Scientific novelty of the research is new patterns establishment of the coal mass deformation, which contain the conveyor excavation, in the process of the coal seam mining in specific mining and geological conditions. Practical value of the research planned to be carried out on the basis of data obtained after field research is allowed to develop a geomechanical model of active methane accumulation zones searching. The model is applied for further industrial use purposes and to improve the safety of coal mining.

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.

In Northwest China, rainfall is low, water resources are scarce, and the ecological environment is fragile. For shallow-buried and close-spaced coal seams with a thickness of upper coal bed >60∼70 m, the water-conducting fissures of the overlying rock will not penetrate the water-isolating layer after the upper coal seam is mined; the internal and external gap angles of the water-conducting fissures are not generated from the water-isolating layer. We set out to explore the critical internal and external dislocations for the second significant development of water-conducting fissures in the overlying rock after coal mining under control. A calculation model for the critical internal and external staggered distances of coal mining face in shallow-buried and close-spaced coal seams is established, the calculation formula is given, and the calculation formula for the critical seam mining ratio under the condition of internal staggered mining mode is given. Numerical simulation performed by UDEC methods: taking the overburden strata in the shallow-buried and close-spaced coal seam mining area of Shigetai Coal Mine as a prototype, it was verified that the critical internal and external offsets of the coal mining face in shallow-buried and close-spaced coal seams have a significant effect on the overlying water flow cracks in the mining of the lower coal seam. For the feasibility of developmental control, according to the engineering geological conditions of Shigetai, through the calculation method of external staggered distance, it is concluded that the distance of the open cut of the lower coal face and the upper coal face is only 21∼27 m, which is much smaller than the water barrier. It does not produce the critical distance of the water-conducting cracks. Therefore, in the process of mining the lower coal seam, the water-proof layer will produce water-conducting cracks, lose its water-proof performance, and cause water loss. This is also the cause of the water inrush accident in Shigetai Coal Mine.

The mechanizetion of Ha Lam coal seam 11 was designed with mining output of 600.000 tous per year. In fact, due to the negative impact of geological conditions as well as the irrationality of the initial production organization, the mining output of the longwall is not reached according to the designed capacity. The paper proposes a method to determine the effective working time of the actual longwall based on each component stage. For specific conditions at coal seam 11 in Ha Lam coal mine. The mean flow rate of the mining stream is considered as a directional factor of the linear function describing the relation between the daily output and the effective mining in the longwall face. This relation is also considered as motivation in particular for supervisory personnel, as it shows advantages resulting from elongation of this time, as well as it shows possible losses of the daily output in a case when the effective working time is given longwall face was shortened.

Abstract Gob-side entry retained with roadside filling (GER-RF) plays a key role in achieving coal mining without pillar and improving the coal resource recovery rate. Since there are few reports on the cyclic filling length of GER-RF, a method based on the stress difference method is proposed to determine the cyclic filling length of GER-RF. Firstly, a stability analysis mechanics model of the immediate roof above roadside filling area in GER was established, then the relationship between the roof stress distribution and the unsupported roof length was obtained by the stress difference method. According to the roof stability above roadside filling area based on the relationship between the roof stress and its tensile strength, the maximum unsupported roof length and rational cyclic filling length of GER-RF. Combined with the geological conditions of the 1103 thin coal seam working face of Heilong Coal Mine and the geological conditions of the 1301 thick coal seam working face of Licun Coal Mine, this suggested method was applied to determine that the rational cyclic filling lengths of GER-RF were 2.4 m and 3.2 m, respectively. Field trial tests show that the suggested method can effectively control the surrounding rock deformation along with rational road-in support and roadside support, and improve the filling and construction speed.

The distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) is a technique that can obtain full spatial and temporal information concerning the behavior of a large range of measurand fields along a fiber path and realize the distributed monitoring of the overburden section under mining. To calculate the height of water-flowing fractured zone caused by the exploitation of coal, this study employed distributed optical fiber sensors with OSI-C-S optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) technology and designed a similar-material model test based on the engineering geological conditions of Daliuta Coal Mine. Through the test, deformation characteristics of overlying strata were studied, the linear relationship was summarized between the strain gradient and the shear stress measured by fiber sensors when the rock layer cracks, and a method was proposed of using the measured strain to measure the height of the water-flowing fractured zone in overlying strata. The test results show that there are several locations where the sign of the shear stress changes (positive to negative or vice versa) in the overlying strata during the initial stage of coal seam mining. As the working face advanced, the change locations gradually concentrated at the place where the rock cracks. By identifying the breakpoints of the rock and the locations where the sign of the shear stress measured by fiber sensors changes, this paper calculated the height of the water-flowing fractured zone in Daliuta Coal Mine. After comparing the height with the abscission layer position in the model test and the predicted height by the empirical formulas in the specification, it has been found that the three results are basically consistent, which in turn verifies the accuracy of this method.

Water inrush in underground mines is a major safety threat for mining personnel, and it can also cause major damage to mining equipment and result in severe production losses. Water inrush can be attributed to the coalescence of rock fractures and the formation of water channel in rock mass due to the interaction of fractures, hydraulic flow, and stress field. Hence, predicting the fracturing process is the key for investigating the water inrush mechanisms for safe mining. A new coupling method is designed in FRACOD to investigate the mechanisms of water inrush disaster (known as “Luotuoshan accident”) which occurred in China in 2010 in which 32 people died. In order to investigate the evolution processes and mechanisms of water inrush accident in Luotuoshan coal mine, this study applies the recently developed fracture-hydraulic (F-H) flow coupling function to FRACOD and focuses on the rock fracturing processes in a karst collapse column which is a geologically altered zone linking several rock strata vertically formed by the long-term dissolution of the flowing groundwater. The numerical simulation of water inrush is conducted based on the actual geological conditions of Luotuoshan mining area, and various materials with actual geological characteristics were used to simulate the rocks surrounding the coal seam. The influences of several key factors, such as in situ stresses, fractures on the formation, and development of water inrush channels, are investigated. The results indicate that the water inrush source is the Ordovician limestone aquifer, which is connected by the karst collapse column to No. 16 coal seam; the fracturing zone that led to a water inrush occurs in front of the roadway excavation face where new fractures coalesced with the main fractured zone in the karst collapse column.
