Mechanism and Prevention and Control of Mine Earthquake in Thick and Hard Rock Strata considering the Horizontal Stress Evolution of Stope by Ming Zhang, Xuelong Hu, Hongtao Huang, Guangyao Chen, Shan Gao, Chao Liu, Lihua Tian

“…Then, based on the obtained results, a mining design method was proposed to reduce the horizontal stress levels of earthquake mitigation. The results showed that, under the control of large faults, semiopen and semiclosed stopes with thick hard rock strata are formed, which cause influentially pressurized and depressurized zones during the evolution of the overburden movements and horizontal stress. …”

Mechanism of Roadway Floor Heave Controlled by Floor Corner Pile in Deep Roadway under High Horizontal Stress by Xinchao Kang, Dongming Guo, Zhiying Lu

“…Through numerical analysis and similar model tests, the deformation and stress distribution of surrounding rock under the support of the corner piles are studied, and the force law of the pile under high horizontal stress is analyzed. The results show that, compared with the floor corner anchor, the floor corner pile + floor grouting support scheme can significantly improve the mechanical properties of the floor rock mass, and the plastic slip line of the floor plate part can be cut by corner piles, which effectively controls the deformation of the floor plate under high horizontal stress; the length and inclination angle of the corner pile have a great influence on the support effect. …”
