Mechanism and prevention practice of rock burst in thick and hard roof

Meikuang Anquan, 2023
Based on the characteristics of thick hard roof and hard coal seam of rock burst mine in Ordos area, the occurrence process of rock burst under the condition of wide coal pillar mining was analyzed. It is revealed that the rock burst in this region is caused by the dynamic system instability in the high stress region of coal body, vibration, stress ...

Evolution of roof treatment processes from blasting to hydraulic fracturing to prevent rockburst in thick-hard roof coal mines in Xinjiang, China

Frontiers in Earth Science
Rockburst prevention poses a major challenge in coal mining, with thick and hard roof strata being the primary cause of rockbursts. To analyze the feasibility and effectiveness of using hydraulic fracturing as an alternative to blasting methods for ...

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Thermal Calculations for Co‐Firing of Hydrogen/Ammonia and Coal in 660‐MW Coal‐Fired Boilers

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To achieve a clean energy transition under the dual carbon goals, blending hydrogen/ammonia into pulverized coal boilers represents a key technological pathway. Different hydrogen/ammonia co‐firing ratios (5%–50%) are investigated for their impact on the thermodynamic characteristics of 660‐MW supercritical boiler at 100% and 20% boiler ...

Structural quantification of multi-thick hard roof and strong ground pressure control in large mining height stope: a case study

Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
The mining of deep large-height longwall faces leads to frequent occurrences of strong ground pressure, at the same time, there are multi-thick hard rock strata in the roof of the longwall face, therefore, it is important to master the fracture ...

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...
