Evaluation of coal seam floor water bursting in multi-aquifer Gequan coal mine, China
AbstractA water-bursting evaluation of the coal seam floor is critical to ensure safety of coal mine production. The vulnerability index method based on AHP is selected for this study’s evaluation method. Water pressure, measured specific yield, equivalent thickness of effective aquiclude, brittle rock thickness under mining pressure damage zone ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A coal burst model based on roof vibration and coal slippage
Abstract Rock burst poses a serious threat to mining, and its mechanism still needs to be studied. Statistics show that more than 85% of rock bursts occur in mining roadways. The authors investigated the mechanism of rock burst in the roadways by creating a finite elastic long beam dynamic model in longwall mining based on the elastic ...

Evaluating the risk of coal bursts in underground coal mines
Abstract Coal bursts involve the sudden, violent ejection of coal or rock into the mine workings. They are almost always accompanied by a loud noise, like an explosion, and ground vibration. Bursts are a particular hazard for miners because they typically occur without warning.

A Novel Coal Burst Criterion of Anchored Roadway Surrounding Rock under Dynamic Disturbance
Mining roadway is the main occurrence area of coal bursts in underground coal mining. A good understanding of the failure process of elastic zone and energy evolution inducing instability of support structure can offer useful insight into the coal burst ...

A rapid cosmic-ray increase in BC 3372-3371 from ancient buried tree rings in China [PDF]
Cosmic rays interact with the Earth's atmosphere to produce $^{14}$C, which can be absorbed by trees. Therefore, rapid increases of $^{14}$C in tree rings can be used to probe previous cosmic-ray events.
