Roadway driving along adjacent goafs is an effective method to develop the recovery rate of coal resources. However, rock burst triggered by dynamic destabilization of coal pillars poses a serious threat to safe and efficient mining, thereby significantly restricting the sustainable development of coal mines. In this study, from the perspectives of energy accumulation and dissipation, a mathematical model of coal pillars is established and the energy equilibrium relationship of the mechanical system is analysed. The rock burst mechanism of coal pillars in gob-side entry is obtained based on a fold catastrophe mathematical model. Results indicate that the rock burst triggered by the instability is a destabilization phenomenon. If the stiffness factor of the mechanical system is less than 1 and the external force is enough to lead coal pillars to the peak stress point, then rock burst disaster occurs. The engineering analysis and numerical simulation are conducted to study the rock burst in the gob-side entry that occurred in Xin'an coal mine. Stress release caused by mining can reduce the risk of rock burst to a certain extent. The amount of elastic energy released is 6.4512 × 10 7 J, which is close to the observation data and verifies the correctness and rationality of the research method. The research result provides a theoretical basis and technical guidance for rock burst prevention and control in roadway driving along adjacent goafs.

Abstract Setting reasonable coal pillar is a key to ensure safe mining of island coal face heading goaf in deep mine. With determination of reasonable width of coal pillars of non-equal width isolated working face 3201 in worked-out area in one mine in Shandong as the engineering background, a research was conducted on the mechanism of rock burst induced by and the reasonable width of coal pillars of isolated working face in worked-out area and the main conclusions are as follows: (1) the coal pillars of isolated working face 3201 in worked-out area changed from pillars with goaf on two sides→pillars with goaf on three sides→pillars with goaf on four sides, resulting in evolution of overlying strata from pre-mining static “┒-shaped” structure→“C-shaped” structure→“O-shaped” structure and corresponding spatial stress from “saddle-shaped” profile→“platform-shaped” profile→“arch-shaped” profile; (2) the rock burst was induced by coal pillars, because the high stress on coal pillars at critical state of a rock burst was greater than their comprehensive strength and induced a rock burst due to sudden instability; (3) by establishing a bearing and load model of coal pillars at critical state of a rock burst and based on the equilibrium relation, an method for estimating reasonable width of coal pillars of isolated working face in worked-out area in deep mine was derived and applied to the isolated working face 3201 in worked-out area, thus comprehensively determining that the width of coal pillars should be 130m. The field stress monitoring verified the reasonability. The research result is of great significance to prevention of rock burst induced by coal pillars of isolated working face in worked-out area in deep mine.

Roadway deformation and rock burst are the two key challenges faced by the safe operation of coal mines. Aiming at the issue of large deformation of the gob-side roadway under coal pillars in multiseam mining, this study has considered the case of the 8308 panel of Xinzhouyao coal mine in China. Based upon a combination of theoretical analysis, numerical simulations, and engineering practices, the mechanical model of “stress and deformation quantitative calculation of gob-side roadway under overlying coal pillars” was established in this study. The analytical solutions of the vertical stress distribution and the plastic zone of the gob-side roadway under overlying coal pillars were obtained. Finally, the accuracy of the mechanical model was verified using numerical simulations. The results showed that the coal pillar, upright above the gob-side roadway, and the cantilever roof around the gob-side roadway were the main factors leading to stress concentration and deformation around the gob-side roadway. For the particular cases considered in this study, the peak stress of the gob-side roadway could reach 1.8 times of the self-weight stress of overlying strata. The rates of the contribution of the gob-side roadway’s overlying pillar and the cantilever roof around the gob-side roadway to peak stress were 78.3% and 16%, respectively. The obtained results have an essential reference significance for stress calculations and rock burst prevention design of gob-side roadway under overlying coal pillars in multiseam mining.

China faces the problem of depletion of its coal resources, and a large number of mines are becoming aged mines. Demand for coal, however, still increases due to the growth of China’s economy. Energy shortage might restrict the sustainability of China’s national economy. As one contribution to a solution, this paper proposes the innovative exploitation method of solid backfill coal mining (SBCM) technology to exploit parts of pillar-blocked (residual coal pillar resources under industrial square, RCPRIS) that protect industrial facilities. Thus, blocked coal resources may be converted into mineable reserves that improve the recovery ratio of mine resources. Also, waste would be removed from the surface reducing hazards of environmental pollution. Based on the case of the Baishan Coal Mine in Anhui, China, numerical simulation is used to study the size of shaft-protecting coal pillars (SPCP) required at different backfill ratios. Results show that the disturbance to a shaft caused by exploitation decreases with the increase of the backfill ratio. When using SBCM to exploit RCPRIS under the condition of 80% backfill ratio, compared with the caving method, a lot of pillar-blocked coal resources would be freed. The life of Baishan Coal Mine would be prolonged, resulting in appreciable social, environmental, and economic benefits.

A case study based on the 401103 fully mechanized caving face in the Hujiahe Coal Mine was carried out in this research to analyze the rock burst risks in a 54 m-wide coal pillar for roadway protection. Influencing factors of rock burst risks on the working face were analyzed. Stress distribution characteristics on the working face of the wide coal pillar for roadway protection were discussed using FLAC3D numerical simulation software. Spatial distribution characteristics of historical impact events on the working face were also investigated using the microseismic monitoring method. Results show that mining depth, geological structure, outburst proneness of coal strata, roof strata structure, adjacent mining area, and mining influence of the current working face are the main influencing factors of rock burst on the working face. Owing to the collaborative effects of front abutment pressure of the working face and lateral abutment pressure in the goaf, the coal pillar is in the ultimate equilibrium state and microseismic events mainly concentrate in places surrounding the coal pillars. Hence, wide coal pillars become the regions with rock burst risks on the working face. The working face adopts some local prevention technologies, such as pressure relief through presplitting blasting in roof, pressure relief through large-diameter pores in coal seam, coal seam water injection, pressure relief through large-diameter pores at bottom corners, and pressure relief through blasting at bottom corners. Moreover, some regional prevention technologies were proposed for narrow coal pillar for roadway protection, including gob-side entry, layer mining, and fully mechanized top-coal caving face with premining top layer.

Gob-side entry is an area where it is difficult to prevent and control the frequent occurrence of rock burst. Based on “Longwall Mining with Split-level Gateways” (LMSG), this paper puts forward the technology of preventing rock burst by a new gob-side entry (NCPG). The abutment pressure distribution of LMSG shows that the stress peak of solid coal is lower than the conventional panel, and the width of the limit equilibrium zone is also reduced by a small percentage. After the narrow coal pillar gob-side entry has been excavated, the peak stress in solid coal increases, and the width of the limit equilibrium zone decreases, so the practical stress concentration increases. However, the NCPG located in areas of lower stress. The peak stress in solid coal of the NCPG does not increase, but the width of the limit equilibrium zone increases, so the practical stress concentration decreases. NCPC makes the concentrated stress transfer into the deep coal body and plays the role of pressure avoidance. Compared with the narrow coal pillar gob-side entry, the NCPG reduces the energy stored in coal and rock masses and increases the energy consumption. It has significantly improved the regionality, initiative, safety, and timeliness of rock burst prevention in deep high-stress coal seam mining.

This paper presents a detailed explanation of a technique for automatically generating a mathematical model for machinery systems. The process starts from a relatively small amount of input data and develops the information required to model a mechanical system with Lagrange’s equation. The technique uses elements of graph theory which were developed for electrical networks. The basic identifications required for mechanical systems are: paths from ground to mass centers, the independent loops of parts, if any, and paths associated with applied force effects. The techniques described in this paper have been used successfully in a generalized computer program, DAMN.

Abstract Two modeling methodologies of the dynamics of a motor-compressor system are presented. The first approach considered only the mechanical system subjected to a sinusoidal input force with the pressure term in the equation of motion treated as a nonlinear stiffness term. The second methodology consisted of a mathematical model that couples the electromagnetic and thermodynamic equations to the dynamic equations that describe the motion of the piston. The mathematical model which consisted of a set of four first order simultaneous nonlinear time varying differential equations, was solved by numerical integration routines that use the Adams-Moulton method with an adaptive integration step. The two methodologies are illustrated through an example. Steady-state operation was shown to be reached rapidly after a 0.13s transient. An analysis at various amplitudes and frequencies of the input voltage in the driver-coil of the motor, showed the amplitude dependence of the resonant frequency of the mechanical system, and a heavily damped system when operating at the design amplitude. The most efficient frequency of operation was also determined for a variety of required mass flow rates.
