Influence of longwall mining on the stability of gas wells in chain pillars [PDF]
Longwall mining has a significant influence on gas wells located within longwall chain pillars. Subsurface subsidence and abutment pressure induced by longwall mining can cause excessive stresses and deformations in gas well casings.

Study of water-conducting fractured zone development law and assessment method in longwall mining of shallow coal seam [PDF]
Starting from the source of mining, scientific understanding of surface damage law and assessment method in longwall mining of shallow coal seam is conducive to solving the problems of geological hazards and deterioration of the ecological environment ...

Rock pressure relief is the basic alternative for sustainable underground mining [PDF]
Retreat longwall mining is the most productive system for underground extraction of tabulated deposits. However, the steady growth of the mining depth dramatically increased the ground pressure in chain pillars protecting the longwall entries. Therefore,

Strata Caving and Gob Evolution Characteristic in Longwall Mining
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 study of transient thermal conditions in longwall faces
With limited mineral resources, existing mines are seeking to extract increasingly hard-to-reach and deep-seated mineral reserves. Increasing mining depth leads to problems connected with the provision of comfortable and safe working conditions. The main

Pillar design and coal burst experience in Utah Book Cliffs longwall operations
Longwall mining has existed in Utah for more than half a century. Much of this mining occurred at depths of cover that significantly exceed those encountered by most other US longwall operations.
