Description
Summary:In order to solve the wall damage problem of roadways with deep and high stress in methane explosion accidents, mathematical-physical analysis models for the dynamic response damage of roadway walls were established by LS-Dyna software in this paper, and the models were validated to be effective. The roadway wall displacement, stress, and deformation characteristics under the methane explosion impact load were numerical simulated and the response and damage evolution process of the roadway wall was studied. The results indicate that the model established in this study can reflect the dynamic response damage characteristics of the roadway wall. The damage of the roadway wall caused by the methane explosion impact load was mainly concentrated in the methane accumulation section, but the maximum principal stress of the roadway wall near the methane accumulation section was still high, and the damage possibility was also high. The dynamic response damage of the roadway wall decreased with the increase in the distance from the initiation explosion point. The stress response of the curved part of the roadway roof was the most severe, and the stress response of the side part was second to that of the roof. The stress changes at the corners were significant, but the deformation was small. The bottom plate was minimally affected by the methane explosion impact loads. The arch top and two sides of the roadway were first subjected to significant impact, resulting in a high-pressure zone. The peak pressure of the side part was relatively high, and the difference in peak pressure between the corner and the bottom plate was not significant.
