The measurement data indicates that the main reason for tunnel damage is continuing level displacement with the characteristic of Pie Form. The experiment shows that, compared with uniaxial compressing, the residual stress in triaxiality compressing is greater, this can result that the level support can increase the stress of the surrounding rocks and decrease or stop the level displacement, at same time, control the pie form displacement of the coal. Based on the situation of tunnel displacement, semi-closing support with I bar or support structure with anchor cable are designed, which can control the continuing displacement of tunnel effectively.

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.

The purpose of this paper is to solve the problem that deep and close-distance cavern and roadway group were easily affected by the adjacent chamber or roadway excavation disturbance and low stability and significant deformation of surrounding rock occurred. The stability and control technology of surrounding rock in the main shaft and auxiliary shaft system has been analyzed by the adjacent chamber and roadway group of −850 m level in Qujiang Mine, China, as an engineering background. Firstly, the numerical calculation of the excavation chamber was, respectively, carried out in different ways with the propagation theory of the excavation disturbance wave. The results show that the interaction of adjacent chamber excavation was more intense. When excavated at the same time, there is a large increase in the movement of the sides and the roof-floor of the chamber and roadway. Then, the mechanism of interaction between low-high stress and excavation disturbance was considered, the corresponding control principles were provided, and a set of critical technologies and equipment were designed according to the deformation characteristics of the large deformation soft surrounding rock. Finally, the comprehensive control method was put forward with the water pump house as an example, that is, anchor, metal net, grouting, combined anchor cable and large-diameter anchor cable. And the related support parameters were determined by the internal damage of the surrounding rock chamber. The numerical simulation results show that the surrounding rock deformation of the chamber and roadway reduced with the revised support program, which the expansion of the rock mass loose circle prevented effectively. The site test shows that the convergence rate of surrounding rock with the improved support was less than 0.2 mm/d, and the rock deformation of chamber and roadway suppressed significantly.

Three-pass gas tungsten arc welding in a 20-mm thick SA508 steel plate is modelled using a sequentially coupled thermal-metallurgical-mechanical model. The dilution for each pass is estimated as the proportion of base material in the weld metal, based on an analysis of the cross-sectional area of each fusion zone. The thermal solution of the weld model is validated using thermocouple measurement data and cross-weld macrographs. The predicted microstructure is qualitatively compared with that observed in cross-weld optical micrographs. The measured hardness distribution is used to quantitatively validate the post-weld ferritic phase distribution (e.g. the ferrite, bainite and martensite fractions), based on a hardness-microstructure correlation. The predicted residual stresses are compared with those measured by neutron diffraction. The results show that dilution significantly influences the metallurgical and mechanical properties of weld metal (either as-deposited or reheated), and its consideration notably improves microstructure and residual stress predictions for a multi-pass steel weldment. For the weldment considered, an increase in dilution promotes the formation of martensite, enhances the hardness and leads to lower tensile stresses (or higher compressive stresses) in the weld metal. Such behaviour arises due to the higher hardenability of the base material, coupled with delayed austenite decomposition on cooling.

Safety of structures can be assured, even if cracks initiate in localized regions of abnormally low toughness, and/or abnormally high stress (LT/HS), if the materials from which they are fabricated have a high enough crack arrest fracture toughness. When this requirement is met, fast-running cracks that initiate in LT/HS regions arrest when their tip encounters material having normal toughness and stresses. The work described in this paper was carried out to determine the crack arrest capability of LNG storage tanks by determining the longest LT/HS region in which a crack could initiate and still arrest when it leaves this region. The determination consisted of relating a fracture analysis with the measured full-thickness crack arrest fracture toughness of three 9-percent Ni plates which were reported in reference [1]. The calculations used a residual stress pattern, produced by welding, superimposed on a typical membrane stress. The residual stress was selected as an example of a localized high stress region. It was found that tanks built from the poorest of the three tested plates could arrest cracks about 3/4 m long, while tanks built from the two tougher plates could arrest cracks almost 2 m long.

In this paper, the mechanics basis underlying the parametric through-thickness residual stress profiles proposed for the revised API 579 Appendix E are presented. The proposed residual stress profiles are governed to a large extent by a unified parametric function form valid for a broad spectrum of pipe and vessel welds. The functional relationship is established based on the comprehensive knowledge base developed within a recent major international joint industry project (JIP) under the auspice of Pressure Vessel Research Council (PVRC) and a large amount of residuals stress measurement data from recent literature. One of the most important features associated with the proposed revision is that residual stress profile is uniquely determined by two important sets of governing parameters: (1) parameters relevant to pipe geometry, i.e., r/t and t; (2) a parameter related to welding linear heat input Q (J/mm), referred to as the characteristic heat input Qˆ which has a dimension of J/mm3. As a result, the corresponding through-wall residual stress distribution exhibits a continuous change as a function of r/t, t, and Qˆ, instead of falling into a few discrete and unrelated profiles, as seen in the current Codes and Standards.

The objective of the present work is to carry out the strength assessment of jacket offshore wind turbine support structures subjected to progressive rupture. A defect existing in a structure made during the fabrication may turn into a small-scale rupture and because of the high-stress concentration and low-cycle fatigue load. Therefore, the ultimate load-carrying capacity of the support structure is analyzed accounting for the progress of the rupture until the leg component experiences a full rupture along its circumference. The effect of imperfection severity is also investigated. The moment–curvature relationship of the structure concerning the studied cases is presented. Furthermore, the jacket support structures, at different water depths, are also analyzed and discussed. Finally, some of the leg components are removed one by one to study the redundancy of the jacket support structure at 80-m water depth.
