A Method For Optimizing The Digital Twin Model Of The Mechanical-Electro-Hydraulic System Of Cantilever Tunnel Boring Machines, Wang Yan
Coal Geology & Exploration
Objective Cantilever roadheaders represent roadway tunnelling equipment that integrates the deep coupling of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems, and their control accuracy directly determines the forming quality of roadways.Methods Cantilever roadheaders involve nonlinear mechanical motion, hydraulic control, and cutting load, rendering it challenging to establish accurate control models. Using the philosophy of digital twin modeling, this study developed a method for optimizing the digital twin model of the mechanical-electro-hydraulic system of cantilever roadheaders based on virtual-physical consistency evaluation. Specifically, a digital twin model of the mechanical-electro-hydraulic system was developed using multi-domain co-simulation between AMESim and Simulink. This model allows …

Sand Tank Experiments On The Seepage And Water Pressure Distribution During Single-Well Dewatering At The Bottom Of A Confined Aquifer, Wang Wenxue
Coal Geology & Exploration
Background Depressurization through dewatering using inclined wells arranged at the aquifer bottom represents a crucial technical approach to the prevention and control of water-sand inrush disasters during coal mining beneath aquifers. However, the mechanisms underlying seepage-pressure interactions and water-preserved depressurization remain poorly understood. Methods Based on the water-yield properties of confined aquifers and the distribution characteristics of inclined wells for dewatering, this study developed a fan-shaped sand tank experimental system for simulating dewatering and seepage from confined aquifers. Using the experimental system, this study carried out seepage experiments using a partially penetrating well at the bottom of a confined aquifer …

Present Situation And Prospects Of Coal-Derived Gas Exploration And Development In Shanxi Province, Li Guofu, Gong Jieli
Coal Geology & Exploration
Coal-derived gas includes coalbed methane(CBM), shale gas and tight sandstone gas. CBM development is of practical significance to ensure coal mine safety, increase clean energy supply, improve regional energy consumption structure, and promote the clear water and blue sky program, which is more in line with the national strategic requirements of developing green energy, achieving carbon neutrality and peaking carbon dioxide emissions. Shale gas and tight sandstone gas are of great significance to improve China’s energy structure and achieve the goal of carbon neutrality and peaking carbon dioxide emissions. Based on the comprehensive analysis of the beneficial exploration and successful …
