To effectively monitor and control the severe mining-induced rockburst in deep fault area, the fault activation law and the mechanical essence of rockburst induced by crossing fault mining were studied through theoretical analysis, microseismic monitoring, field investigation, and other methods; numerical simulation was employed to verify the obtained fault activation law and the mechanical nature. First, the distribution of microseismic sources at different mining locations and the fault activation degree were analyzed. According to the microseismic frequency and the characteristics of the energy stage, the fault activation degree was divided into three stages: fault stress transfer, fault pillar stress behavior, and fault structure activation. It was determined that the impact disaster risk was the strongest in the stage of the fault pillar stress behavior. Based on the periodic appearance law of microseisms in fault area, three types of conceptual models of fault-type rockburst were proposed, and the rockburst carrier system model of “roof-coal seam-floor” in the fault area was established. The mechanical essence of fault-type rockburst was obtained as follows: under the action of fault structure, the static load of the fault coal pillar was increased and superimposed with the active dynamic load of the fault, leading to high-strength impact disaster. Finally, the prevention and treatment concepts of fault-type rockburst were proposed. The monitoring and prevention measures of fault-type rockburst were taken from two aspects: the monitoring and characterization of fault rockburst and weakening control of the high static load of the fault coal pillar and dynamic load of fault activation. The proposed concepts and technical measures have been verified in the working face 14310 of Dongtan Coal Mine with sound results. The research results have a guiding significance for the prevention and control of rockburst in a similar mining face under crossing fault mining.

Coal mine rockburst is closely related to the complex geological structure. Understanding the criterion of the fault activation instability and the disaster-causing mechanism of rockburst under the influence of mining is the theoretical premise and important guarantee of safe and efficient coal mining. In this paper, based on the theory of key stratum, the mechanical model of fault slip instability in the normal fault during the hanging wall mining was established, and the instability criterion was derived. It is concluded that the fault slip instability of the hanging wall is mainly controlled by two factors: (1) the distance between coal seams and key stratum and (2) the distance between working face and fault. Moreover, these two factors have an inverse relation to the occurrence of rockburst. Subsequently, three conceptual models of rockburst induced by the fault stress transfer, stress concentration of coal pillars, and fault structural instability were proposed. Based on the rock mechanics theory, the rockburst carrier system model of “roof-coal seam-floor” near the fault was established. The mechanical essence of fault rockburst was obtained as follows: under the action of fault, the static load of fault coal pillar was increased and superimposed with the fault activation dynamic load, leading to high-strength rockburst disaster. Based on the occurrence mechanism of fault rockburst, the monitoring and prevention concept and technical measures were proposed in three aspects, including the monitoring and control of fault activation dynamic loads, the monitoring of high static load in fault coal pillar and stress release, and the strengthening roadway support. These prevention and control measures were verified in the panel 103down02 of the Baodian Coal Mine in engineering, and the effectiveness of these measures was proved.

The practices of hazardous and unique facilities’ construction imply that specific attention is paid to the issues of safety. Threats associated with crash impacts caused by moving cars or planes are considered. To ensure safety of these construction sites it is required to know the potential dynamic loads and their destructive capacity. This article considers the methodology of reducing dynamic loads associated with impacts caused by moving collapsing solids and blast loads to equivalent static loads. It is demonstrated that practically used methods of reduction of dynamic loads to static loads are based in schematization only of the positive phase of a dynamic load in a triangle forms are not always correct and true. The historical roots of this approach which is not correct nowadays are shown; such approach considered a detonation explosion as a source of dynamic load, including TNT and even a nuclear weapon. Application of the existing practices of reduction of dynamic load to static load for accidental explosions in the atmosphere that occur in deflagration mode with a significant vacuumization phase may cause crucial distortion of predicted loads for the construction sites. This circumstance may become a matter of specific importance at calculations of potential hazard of impacts and explosions in unique units — for instance, in the nuclear plants. The article considers a situation with a plane crash, the building structure load parameters generated at the impact caused by a plane impact and the following deflagration explosion of fuel vapors are determined.

In order to study the occurrence mechanism of rock burst in L-shaped zone during a fully mechanized mining period, the No. 705 working face which is located in Baojishan Colliery is taken as a typical engineering background. By means of in situ investigation, theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, in situ tests, and relevant monitoring methods, the occurrence mechanism of rock burst and corresponding prevention technology are studied. The results show that a coal pillar with some confining pressure in the L-shaped zone is established by FLAC3D numerical simulation software, and the numerical simulation results indicate that the change in static load has a greater effect than dynamic load on coal pillar unstable failure; the static load plays a role in storing energy, and dynamic load plays a role in inducing rock burst; the bolt-mesh-cable support and high-pressure water jet unloading combined technology is put forward to prevent rock burst in roadways, and the numerical simulation results show that stress distribution of surrounding rock meets the model of strong-soft-strong (3S) structure, and the moment distribution is reasonable. In the follow-up mining, a limit value of coal fines is used to determine that this measure is a reasonable method to prevent rock burst. The study conclusions provide theoretical foundation and new guidance for preventing rock burst by synergistic effect technology in roadways.

Coal pillar bursts continue to be a severe dynamic hazard. Understanding its mechanism is of paramount importance and crucial in preventing and controlling its occurrence. The extreme roadway deformations from the asymmetric isolated coal pillars in the central mining district of YaoQiao Coal Mine have responded with frequent intense tremors, with risky isolated coal pillar bursts. The theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and field measurements were done to research the impact of spatial overburden structure and stress distribution characteristics on the isolated coal pillar area, aiming to reveal the mechanism of coal pillar burst leading to the practice of prevention and control in the asymmetric isolated coal pillar area. The study shows that the overburden structure of the asymmetric is an asymmetric “T” structure in the strike-profile, and the stress in the coal pillar is mostly asymmetric “saddle-shaped” distribution, with the peak stress in the east side of the coal pillar, and the coal pillar is a “high stress serrated isolated coal pillar.” Numerical simulation results showed that the support pressure in the isolated coal pillar area on the strike profile was asymmetrically “saddle-shaped” distribution. The peak vertical stress in the coal pillar area continued to rise and gradually shifted to the mining district's deep part. As a result, the response of the roadway sides to the dynamic load disturbance was more pronounced. They developed a coal burst prevention and control program of deep-hole blasting in the roof of asymmetrical isolated coal pillar roof and unloading pressure from coal seam borehole. Monitored data confirmed that the stress concentration was influential in the roadway’s surrounding rock in the asymmetric isolated coal pillar area, circumventing coal pillar burst accidents. The research outcomes reference the prevention and control of coal bursts at isolated working faces of coal pillars under similar conditions.

In the mining process of an underground coal mine, the dynamic load often causes great damage to the roadway and affects the normal mining of coal mine. In this paper, the deformation of surrounding rocks under static load and different disturbance intensities is studied by numerical simulation. The results show that under the same static load condition, the greater the dynamic load strength is, the more obvious the roadway roof displacement subsidence is. With the increase in dynamic load propagation distance, the amplitude of the dynamic load waveform decreases gradually. Under the same disturbance load intensity, the variation of roadway displacement with different disturbance load frequencies is studied. According to the influence of dynamic load on the deformation of the roadway, a combined support plan of shotcrete anchor net and reinforcement anchor cable is proposed. Finally, the rationality of the optimized support scheme is verified by numerical simulation and field results. The results show that the combined support scheme can effectively increase the strength of the broken soft rock and reduce the deformation of the surrounding rock. At the same time, it releases the expansion energy generated by the mutual compression and deformation of the rock layers, effectively maintaining the long-term stability of the roadway.

In order to study the pressure changes and support failure in mining face under concentrated coal pillar in shallow coal seam, the concentrated coal pillar in 30105 working face of Nan Liang Coal Mine was selected as the research object. In this study, the mechanism of dynamic mine pressure in mining face under concentrated coal pillar was investigated through multiple simulation experiments, numerical simulations, and theoretical analysis. The results of similar simulation experiment indicate that the dynamic mine pressure occurred at 25 m under the concentrated coal pillar and 7 m beyond the coal pillar. The strata roof was observed with sliding down, resulting in collapse and severe fractures commonly seen in rock column. The overlying strata caused the overall subsidence and collapse synchronously, resulting in the sudden increase of the resistance of the support in the working face, and the dynamic load coefficients reach 3.4 and 3.5. The theoretical analysis indicates that the two hard strata in the overlying strata of 3−1 coal meet the theoretical criterion of the combined key strata with the concentrated coal pillar of 2−2 coal in the weak interlayer of the combined key strata. The combined key strata bear the load of the whole overlying strata. The sliding instability featured with the rock column-type fracture located in the combined key strata is considered as the primary trigger of the abnormal resistance of the support and the dynamic mine pressure in the mining face under the concentrated coal pillar. The dynamic pressure model of “combination key strata—immediate roof-support” was established, along with the dynamic load coefficient calculation related to the rock column-type fracture and instability. The characteristics of dynamic load coefficient of the rock column-type fracture and instability under different overlying rock structure conditions were analyzed, providing references and insights into mining under similar geographic conditions.

AbstractDeep mining is faced with severe rock dynamic problems. Coal bears high-strength static load in the deep and is prone to impact under the influence of dynamic load disturbance such as roof breaking. The true triaxial Hopkinson pressure bar system is used to conduct dynamic load impact tests on coal specimens under different triaxial prestressing forces to simulate the bearing characteristics of coal under different engineering conditions. The results show that the dynamic mechanical characteristics of coal are confinement-dependent under the same dynamic load, and the energy transmission of each component are significantly different, which is obviously different from that under static load; Furthermore, the influence range of intermediate principal stress on dynamic characteristics of coal specimen is 6~8 MPa. Based on the failure characteristics, the enhancement of the intermediate principal stress will increase the integrity and the internal damage of a coal specimen after failure; It should be noted that the strain signals obtained in the Y/Z axis direction are mainly the response to the triaxial prestress, and the stress wave of coal specimen is mainly influenced in the impact direction. In underground coal mining, by changing the triaxial prestressed state of coal, the buffering effect of stress wave is improved, and the damage of coal caused by the impact is reduced.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the impact of the inner defects of elliptical stratification type upon behavior of the rectangular carbon plastic plate at the impact of static and dynamic loads. The investigation methods: the problem is solved in a numerical way with the aid of a finite ele-ment method (FEM) in the LS-DYNA software com-plex (Livermore Software Technology Corp.). The investigation results: the distribution of stresses in plate layers under the impact of static and dynamic loads is obtained. The distribution of destruc-tion indices with the use of different destruction criteria for unidirectional composites (on the basis of carbon band) is defined. Conclusions: the impact of defects of the type of specified shape stratification, dimensions, amount and places of location with regard to the plate under consideration under the action of compressive static load does not practically tell. Under the action of the compressive dynamic load there is observed a noticeable impact of inner defects upon rectangular plate behavior.

Abstract The ship’s pedestal is the connection structure between the ship’s equipment and the hull, and is also the basis for the installation of the equipment. The pedestal bears both the static load generated by the weight of the equipment and the dynamic load generated during the operation of the equipment, and at the same time transmits the external load received by the hull to the equipment, and the load it bears is very complicated. If there is a problem with the pedestal in an impact environment, the accuracy of the system equipment will be affected, the system equipment will not work properly. Negative Poisson’s ration structures have a unique set of properties because of their tensile expansion, such as increased shear modulus, enhanced fracture toughness, better energy absorption and co-curvature. In recent years, the negative Poisson’s ration honeycomb structure has been applied to the pedestal of marine equipment, which demonstrates good vibration damping effect. However, the pedestal has two functions: vibration damping and impact resistance, there is not much research on the impact resistance of the pedestal. In this paper, an “arrow-shaped” honeycomb pedestal is taken as the research object. Firstly, the analytical expression of the Poisson’s ration of the honeycomb pedestal is derived theoretically and the influence of each parameter on the Poisson’s ration is analyzed. Secondly, the effect of Poisson’s ration on the impact resistance of the pedestal was analyzed by ensuring that the pedestal height was constant. It was found that with the reduction of Poisson’s ration, the impact resistance of the pedestal and the output impact environment of the pedestal panel were effectively optimized. Finally, by ensuring that the height of the pedestal is constant and the Poisson’s ration is the same, the influence of the number of honeycomb layers on the impact resistance of the pedestal is analyzed.
