Investigation of the Dynamic Evolution Mechanism of Bed Separation in Karst Aquifers and Risk Assessment of Water Inrush

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the temporal and spatial evolution law of roof separation under the karst aquifer and the dynamic water inrush mechanism of roof separation. The FAHP–EWM–CRITIC combination weighting method was established to obtain the risk zoning of bed separation water inrush in a karst landform mining area. ABSTRACT Coalfields in northern Guizhou
