In the process of construction, it is essential to determine the surrounding rock pressure, which needs to propose the simulation model according to relevant theory, and calculate and analyze the surrounding rock stress, to guarantee the safety of the tunnel construction and operation. However, this has been no perfect calculation theory and formula for surrounding rock stress to unsymmetrically loading tunnel (ULT). The constructed method of failure modes on the shallow ULT are proposed, together with the failure mode for the shallow unsymmetrically load single tunnel, based on the basic assumptions and basic theories of limit analysis method (LAM).

The surrounding rock stress field monitor has been done in excavation by vibrating wire transducer. The field monitoring data are compared with numerical simulation results. The result shows: Vibrating wire transducer can record the stress variation of surrounding rock and support. Surrounding rock stress changes violently at every excavation step, such as lower bench excavation, the stress variation is mainly controlled by the spatial effect. When the distance from excavation face to the monitoring section is more than a tunnel diameter, the rock stress variation is mainly affected by time and it is relatively smooth and continuous.

In order to further explore the deformation and failure essence of the deep coal body, based on the characteristics of surrounding rock stress adjustment before and after solid coal roadway excavation, an experiment of unloading confining pressure and loading axial pressure of the coal body was designed and conducted in this study. Based on test results, the failure mechanics and energy characteristics of the coal body were analyzed through experiments. Rapid unloading is considered a key factor contributing to lateral deformation and expansion failure, which exacerbates the deterioration of coal body and reduces the deformation energy storage capacity of coal. On the other hand, the larger loading rate tends to shorten the accumulation time of microcracks and cause damage to the coal body, resulting in strengthening the coal body and improving energy storage. Under the circumstance that the coal body is destroyed, the conversion rates of the internal deformation energy and dissipated energy are more significantly affected by unloading rate. The increasing unloading rate and rapid decreases in the conversion rate of deformation energy make the coal body more vulnerable to damage. Under the same stress conditions, the excavation unloading is more likely to deform, destroy, or even throw the coal than the experiment unloading. In order to reduce or avoid the occurrence of deep roadway excavation accidents, the understanding of the excavation unloading including possible influencing factors and the monitoring of the surrounding rock stress and energy during the excavation disturbance should be strengthened. It can be used as the basis for studying the mechanism of deformation and failure of coal and rock and dynamic disasters in deep mines, as well as the prediction, early warning, prevention, and control of related dynamic disasters.

The stress concentration of gob-side entry surrounding rock is a hot topic in coal mining. In this paper, through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, the pressure relief mechanism of the gob-side entry retaining by roof cutting and pressure release (RCPR) and the spatiotemporal development law of surrounding rock stress of the gob-side entry were analyzed. The studies showed that the gob-side entry retaining by RCPR shortened the length of the lateral cantilever by directional roof cutting, which weakened the stress level of the gob-side entry. In the meantime, the goaf gangues could play a good filling role by using their breaking and swelling characteristics under the action of gangue-blocking supports and further optimized the stress environment along the roadway. Field industrial tests verified that the gob-side entry retaining by RCPR had a significant effect on pressure relief, and the surrounding rock stress and deformation tended to stabilize after about 160 m of lagging working face. Numerical analysis reproduced the whole process of “mining-retention-using” of roof cutting roadway and revealed that surrounding rocks were always in the zone of relative stress reduction during the whole process. The peak value of mining-induced lateral stress was about 10 m away from the middle point of the gob-side entry. The change of surrounding rock stress could be divided into three stages: significant increase, dynamic adjustment, and stable stage. However, during the second mining, the stress connected zone would appear on the leading working face, and the stress concentration in this zone was significant. Based on the above analysis, we concluded that the new technology could be applied to the medium-thickness coal seam in the composite roof.

As lack of explicit analysis method on the sequence of many factors influencing the plastic zone extension of surrounding rock, the grey correlation analysis method is adopted to study the relationship between the plastic zone extension radius Rp and the six factors such as cohesive c, internal friction angle φ, deformation modulus E, unit weight γ, initial ground stress σ and the radius of chamber r. By dealing with dimensionless, the corresponding sequences composed with the sensitive factors as sub-sequence and the plastic zone extension radius as mother sequence are obtained. The gray correlation analysis model of sensitive factors which evaluates the results with grey correlation degree is built by the methods of dimensionless and extreme difference variation. Then, an engineering example is analyzed with grey correlation. Based on the analysis results, the sorting of sensitive factors is φ > σ > c > r > E > γ. It implies that the influences of internal friction angle φ and initial ground stress σ are the most prominent, and the sensitivities of deformation modulus E and unit weight γ are lowest. These are in good agreement with the analytical formula of classical theory, and can be used in guiding the further optimization and improvement of the analytical expression of the plastic zone extension radius Rp of surrounding rock.

The rock mass has special properties, such as inhomogeneity, anisotropy, discontinuity, and nonelastic, due to various internal or external stress in the process of its formation. In this study, similar materials are considered to simulate the rock mass and analyze the failure law using laboratory tri-axial tests based on the similarity principle. The rock mass and discontinuity are constituted in the process of model construction by considering the influence of the orientation, spacing, and number of discontinuity, respectively. Then, the influences of the orientation, spacing, number of discontinuity, and the combination of different discontinuous strength on rupture mechanism of the rock mass are analyzed by considering lots of numerical test schemes using the discontinuous deformation analysis method. Finally, considering water conveyance tunnel in Jurong Pumped Storage Power Station in China as a test case, the tunnel stability under different discontinuities combination is analyzed using discontinuous deformation analysis method. The influence of the optimal tunnel axis and tunnel shape on the stability of surrounding rock is studied by comparative analysis of surrounding rock stability under different tunnel axis and tunnel shapes. The stress concentration in case of the circular tunnel with corner is somehow less than that of the rectangular one.

According to control problems of surrounding rock at isolated island coal face, taking isolated island coal 1251(3)face ventilation tunnel of PanSan mine as engineering background, this paper puts forward three reinforcement schemes based on the idea of turning later recovery to former reinforcement. Simulation has been done on the character of surrounding rock stress and deformation distribution and supporting structure force of three different schemes by FLAC3D. Finally optimal scheme is the third scheme. The application result show that anchor-net-cable support combined with anchor grouting support has got a good effect. The large deformation of surrounding rock is controlled efficiently and tunnel surrounding rock stable is guaranteed. The study provides a basis for goaf-side entry surrounding rock control under similar conditions.
