The shaft is the throat of the mine construction, and it is easily disturbed by gushing water, which affects the mine construction progress. Aiming at technical problems under complex hydrogeological conditions in coal mines, such as vertical shaft lining rupture and serious gushing water, single-liquid and double-liquid cement grouting materials are invalid for multiple plugging of gushing water. Combining with geological data to analyze the conditions of the aquifers and water-blocking layer in the shaft, adopting the multifunctional digital electrical method and digital flow measuring instrument can accurately grasp the flow direction and flow velocity and further obtain the aquifer parameters of the main and auxiliary shafts. At the same time, based on the FLAC numerical simulation software, research on the stress, displacement, and plastic failure of the shaft surrounding rock under different water pressures (0.5 times, 1 time, and 2 times the hydrostatic pressure) and comparative analysis of the influence of the water bodies on the shaft surrounding rock are carried out. On this basis, the following are the objectives: (1) research the mechanical properties of polymer chemical material Malisan N and the mechanism of grouting to plugging gushing water and strengthening surrounding rock, (2) formulate the grouting drilling layout and construction technology for the topsoil and bedrock section of the main and auxiliary shafts, and (3) carry out long-term monitoring of the water inflow. The monitoring data showed that the measured water inflow was less than 0.05 m3/h after the grouting of the shaft surrounding rock, which achieved the purpose of preventing the shaft linings from rupturing, plugging the gushing water, and stabilizing the aquifer water pressure.

Affected by the coupling of excavation disturbance and ground stress, the heterogeneity of surrounding rock is very common. Presently, treating the permeability coefficient as a fixed value will reduce the prediction accuracy of the water inflow and the external water pressure of the structure, leading to distortion of the prediction results. Aiming at this problem, this paper calculates and analyzes tunnel water inflow when considering the heterogeneity of permeability coefficient of surrounding rock using a theoretical analysis method, and compares with field data, and verifies the rationality of the formula. The research shows that, when the influence of excavation disturbance and ground stress on the permeability coefficient of surrounding rock is ignored, the calculated value of the external water force of the tunnel structure is too small, and the durability and stability of the tunnel are reduced, which is detrimental to the safety of the structure. Considering the heterogeneity of surrounding rock, the calculation error of water inflow can be reduced from 27.3% to 13.2%, which improves the accuracy of water inflow prediction to a certain extent.

Sandstone-roofed roadways are susceptible to deformation and failure caused by reservoir-water-induced disturbances, thereby compromising human safety. Using rock-mechanics testing techniques, numerical simulations, and engineering principles, this study investigates the strength, deformation, and pore-structure characteristics of sandstone roofs as well as means to support the surrounding rock structure. The results obtained in this study reveal that the residual strain is proportional to the pore-water pressure, which, in turn, causes a significant reduction in the elastic modulus during the unloading phase. Furthermore, an increase in the pore-water pressure causes the shear failure of specimens in compression. The delay between crack initiation and specimen-volume expansion decreases. Moreover, the specimen demonstrates increased deformation and failure responses to changes in the confining pressure, thereby resulting in accelerated conversion. Changes in water inflow can be correlated to crack initiation, propagation, and fracture. This water inflow gradually increases with an increase in the osmotic pressure. Correspondingly, the volumetric strain required for maximum water inflow undergoes a gradual decrease. The increased water inflow can be considered a precursor to specimen failure. In addition, fractures in the surrounding rock structures are mainly caused by joint dislocations. The increase in pore pressure promotes the development of dislocation fractures in the deep surrounding rocks. Subsequently, these fractures overlap with their open counterparts to form large fractures; this increases the roadway-roof subsidence and layer separation of the shallow surrounding rocks, thereby further increasing the fracture count. Lastly, the use of high-performance rock bolts, cable-bolt reinforcements, and W-shaped steel bands is expected to ensure the stability of rocks surrounding sandstone-roofed roadways subject to water-pressure disturbances.

For practical purposes, the curtain grouting method is an effective method to treat geological disasters and can be used to improve the strength and permeability resistance of surrounding rock. Selection of the optimal parameters of grouting reinforcement cycle especially reinforcement cycle thickness is one of the most interesting areas of research in curtain grouting designs. Based on the fluid-structure interaction theory and orthogonal analysis method, the influence of reinforcement cycle thickness, elastic modulus, and permeability on water inflow of tunnel after grouting and stability of surrounding rock was analyzed. As to the water inflow of tunnel after grouting used as performance evaluation index of grouting reinforcement cycle, it can be concluded that the permeability was the most important factor followed by reinforcement cycle thickness and elastic modulus. Furthermore, pore water pressure field, stress field, and plastic zone of surrounding rock were calculated by using COMSOL software under different conditions of reinforcement cycle thickness. It also can be concluded that the optimal thickness of reinforcement cycle and permeability can be adopted as 8 m and 1/100 of the surrounding rock permeability in the curtain grouting reinforcement cycle. The engineering case provides a reference for similar engineering.

When crossing difficult terrain or extreme regional geological conditions encountered, there are difficulties in laying road routes, the spacing between two adjacent tunnels is limited. Neighborhood tunnel is a form of tunnel structure between separate and arch ones, less affected by the topography. It is more conveniently and easier to control the cost. Surrounding rock deformation mechanism with construction of three-step method is more complex, and therefore a reasonable means of construction technology and support is essential. Taking a certain neighborhood tunnel highway engineering background, aimed to provide guidance for follow-up monitoring and support, we use numerical simulation software FLAC3D on three-step method excavation construction. Rational creep analysis of geotechnical model and calculation parameters is selected. It helps to calculation and analysis the mechanical response of tunnel surrounding rock characteristics and clarify the tendency of displacement and stress fields.

At present, jet-grouted horizontal waterproof curtain reinforcement has become an essential method for deep foundation pit groundwater control. However, there is still a lack of an effective theoretical calculation method for horizontal waterproof curtain reinforcement, and there is little research on the seepage laws of foundation pits under different horizontal waterproof curtain conditions. Based on Darcy’s seepage theory, theoretical analysis models of deep foundation pit seepage were established considering the effect of a horizontal curtain in a highly permeable formation. Through the established models, the calculation method of the water inflow and the water pressure under the condition of a horizontal curtain was derived. Then through indoor tests, the reliability of the theoretical calculation method was verified. Furthermore, the established theoretical calculation method is used to analyze the influence of various factors on the water inflow and the water pressure, such as the ratio of hydraulic conductivity of the horizontal curtain to surrounding soil, thickness, and reinforcement position of the horizontal curtain. It is found that the hydraulic conductivity ratio has the most significant influence on the seepage characteristics of the foundation pit. Finally, the design method was applied to an example of the horizontal waterproof curtain of the foundation pit, which is located at Juyuanzhou Station in Fuzhou (China). The water inflow per unit area is 0.36 m3/d in the foundation pit, and this implies that the design method of the horizontal waterproof curtain applied for the excavation case is good and meets the requirements of design and safety.

Based on the special geological conditions of a tunnel in Qingyuan section of Huizhou-Zhanzhou Expressway, FLAC3d numerical simulation software is used to simulate the rheological properties and instability of surrounding rock in large-section fully weathered sandstone section, and the stability and loss of surrounding rock are analyzed. The deformation of the dome and the face at steady state is analyzed. It is found that: 1) when the surrounding rock is in a stable state, the deformation curve of the dome is smooth. When the surrounding rock of the face is unstable, the front of the face appears ahead. Deformation should be first strengthened on the surrounding rock in front of the face. 2) The arched foot is an important part of the instability of the surrounding rock. In order to prevent the expansion of the collapsed part, the arched part should be reinforced. 3) In order to obtain the limit state of surrounding rock stability, the strength of surrounding rock is reduced, and the strength reduction coefficient corresponding to the displacement sudden point is taken as the safety factor of rock stability around the hole, and the stability safety coefficients of surrounding rock of each construction step are greater than 1.2. 4) The dynamic standard values of deformation control in the whole construction stage are obtained by analyzing the deformation curves of each data monitoring point with time in the corresponding time period of each construction step.

To provide a theoretical basis for water prevention and control methods and reasonable supporting techniques for vertical shaft, and to ensure the shaft construction to pass the sandstone aquifer safely and rapidly, numerical simulation using dynamic damage constitutive model, which was a user-defined constitutive modules in FLAC3D, a lagrangian analysis code in three dimensions, has been applied to investigate the dynamic damage effect in the surrounding rock of the grouting curtain near the driving working face for vertical shaft excavated by blasting. The results indicate that the distribution of the damage zone in the surrounding rock of the shaft, which decreases the effective thickness of the grouting curtain, was like a ellip-se, and that the depth of the damage zone in the surrounding rock of the shaft grouting curtain is fewer than that of the driving face floor. It can be concluded that the centre part of the driving face floor, especially the cutting hole zones, and the shaft wall in the greater horizontal stress side are the " key parts " for shaft water prevention and control methods.

Highway tunnel plays an increasingly prominent role in the development of high-grade highway traffic in mountainous countries or regions. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the deformation characteristics of the surrounding rock of a six-lane multiarch tunnel under different excavation conditions. Using the three-dimensional indoor model test and finite element analysis, this paper studies the dynamic mechanical behavior of a six-lane construction, reveals the whole process of the surrounding rock deformation process of class II surrounding rock under different excavation conditions, and puts forward the best construction and excavation method. The results show that the maximum displacement rate of excavation scheme III is the largest, and the maximum displacement rate of excavation scheme I is basically the same as that of excavation scheme II. Therefore, in terms of controlling the displacement rate of the surrounding rock, the effect of excavation scheme I is basically the same as that of excavation scheme II, while that of excavation scheme III is poor. In terms of construction technology, scheme II is simpler than scheme I and can ensure the integrity of the secondary lining. Therefore, in class II surrounding rock of the supporting project, it is recommended to adopt scheme II for construction.

Water inrush and mud outburst are one of the crucial engineering disasters commonly encountered during the construction of many railways and tunnels in karst areas. In this paper, based on fluid dynamics theory and discrete element method, we established a fractured rock mass mud inflow model using particle flow PFC3D numerical software, simulated the whole process of fractured rock mass mud inflow, and discussed the effect of particle size and flow velocity on the change of pressure gradient. The numerical simulation results show that the movement of particles at the corner of the wall when the water pressure is first applied occurs similar to the vortex phenomenon, with the running time increases, the flow direction of particles changes, the vortex phenomenon disappears, and the flow direction of particles at the corner points to the fracture; in the initial stage, the slope of the particle flows rate curves increases in time, and the quadratic function is used for fitting. After the percolation velocity of particles reaches stability, the slope of the curve remains constant, and the primary function is used for fitting; the particle flow rate and pressure gradient are influenced by a variety of factors, and they approximately satisfy the exponential function of an “S” curve.
