Strata Caving and Gob Evolution Characteristic in Longwall Mining

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
It is usually difficult to capture strata caving and gob evolution characteristic in longwall mining at engineering scales. This paper uses bonded block modelling (BBM) approach within a distinct element method (DEM) code to simulate strata behaviour in ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of the Effect of Integration of a Flooded-Bed Scrubber into a Longwall Shearer on Airflow along a Coal Mine Longwall Face

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Dust control is one of the most difficult challenges for underground coal mine operators, especially longwall mine operators. The most widely used dust control technologies at a longwall section are ventilation air and water sprays, whereas a continuous ...

A case study of the stability of a non-typical bleeder entry system at a U.S. longwall mine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2020
Longwall abutment loads are influenced by several factors, including depth of cover, pillar sizes, panel dimensions, geological setting, mining height, proximity to gob, intersection type, and size of the gob.
