A Simulation Study Of Mechanisms Behind Water Inrush From Fault-Bearing Floors Of Ultra-Thick Coal Seams Under Loading And Unloading At Significantly Variable Amplitude, Li Hao, Zhu Kaipeng, Guo Guoqiang, Zhou Yang, Kang Zhiqin
Coal Geology & Exploration
Ultra-thick coal seams feature large stope spaces and extensive disturbance ranges. Significantly variable amplitude loading and unloading are prone to cause the fault rupture of floors of ultra-thick coal seams, inducing water disasters. Numerical simulation serves as a critical method for revealing the fault reactivation and water inrush mechanisms at the floors of ultra-thick coal seams. The key of this method is to accurately inflect the coupling characteristics of rock mass rupture and fissure water under significantly variable amplitude loading and unloading. This study determined the correlations of the damage variable with plastic strain and stress, deriving the equations for …
Water Inrush Mechanism And Water-Conducting Fractured Zone’ Developmental Patterns Of A Typical Ultra-Thick Coal Seam In The Huanglong Coalfield During Fully Mechanized Mining, Yan Heping, Li Wenping, Duan Zhonghui, Yang Yugui
Water Inrush Mechanism And Water-Conducting Fractured Zone’ Developmental Patterns Of A Typical Ultra-Thick Coal Seam In The Huanglong Coalfield During Fully Mechanized Mining, Yan Heping, Li Wenping, Duan Zhonghui, Yang Yugui
Coal Geology & Exploration
The mining of thick coal seams in the Huanglong Jurassic coalfield has led to the formation of high water-conducting fractured zones, which are prone to connect the extremely thick sandstone aquifers of the overlying Cretaceous Luohe Formation. Qinggangping Coal Mine in the coalfield exhibits the typical characteristics of pulsed water inrushes during coal mining, posing a severe threat to safe mining. This study investigated the fully mechanized mining face 42105 in Qinggangping Coal Mine. Using 3DEC discrete element simulation, flushing fluid leakage in boreholes, integrated geophysical exploration, and borehole TV, this study examined the developmental patterns of the water-conducting fractured …
