A laboratory ice-breaking test was employed for an asphalt pavement with different dosage of rubber crumbs to study the ice-breaking effects by a self-developed road ice-breaking simulating tester. The mesoscopic model of rubber crumbs asphalt pavement structure with 2mm ice layer was established using the discrete element method, and the mesoscopic responses of rubber crumbs asphalt pavement structure were simulated under the standard axle loading. The results indicate that the weighted average rebound amounts of BPN with 3% rubber crumbs increase by 11.45% and 1.46%, respectively, compared with that of 2% and 4% rubber crumbs. The weighted average rebound rates of BPN with 3% rubber crumbs increase by 11.22% and 3.06%, respectively, compared with that of 2% and 4% rubber crumbs. For 3% rubber crumbs, the maximum contact forces in this pavement structure are the biggest which are 2.705×103N before loading and 2.706×103N after loading, and its strain energy is 1.34 times that of 2% rubber crumbs, 1.25 times that of 4% rubber crumbs. In addition, the results of numerical simulation are consistent with the results laboratory test.

Runoff Control

We examined the possibility of improved runoff control in a porous asphalt pavement by installing beneath it an infiltration pipe with a numerical simulation model that can simulate rainfall infiltration and runoff at the porous asphalt pavement. From the results of simulations about runoff and infiltration at the porous asphalt pavement, it became clear that putting a pipe under the porous asphalt pavement had considerable effect, especially during the latter part of the rainfall.

Element Method

The drum is the working mechanism of the coal shearer, and the coal loading performance of the drum is very important for the efficient and safe production of coal mine. In order to study the coal loading performance of the shearer drum, a discrete element model of coupling the drum and coal wall was established by combining the results of the coal property determination and the discrete element method. The movement of coal particles and the mass distribution in different areas were obtained, and the coal particle velocity and coal loading rate were analyzed under the conditions of different helix angles, rotation speeds, traction speeds and cutting depths. The results show that with the increase of helix angle, the coal loading first increases and then decreases; with the increase of cutting depth and traction speed, the coal loading rate decreases; the increase of rotation speed can improve the coal loading performance of drum to a certain extent. The research results show that the discrete element numerical simulation can accurately reflect the coal loading process of the shearer drum, which provides a more convenient, fast and low-cost method for the structural design of shearer drum and the improvement of coal loading performance.
