Numerical Simulation of Aerogasdynamics Processes in A Longwall Panel for Estimation of Spontaneous Combustion Hazards

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2017
The relevance of a solution of the problem of endogenous fire safety in seams liable to self-ignition is shown. The possibilities of numerical methods of researches of gasdynamic processes are considered.

Quantifying the Hydrological Niche of Upland Swamp Plant Communities Using Indicator Species

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coastal Upland Swamps of the Sydney Basin Bioregion, Australia, are highly biodiverse upland mires. Swamp vegetation organises into five communities, thought to occupy distinct positions along a hydrological gradient. Longwall mining reduces the duration of root zone saturation, but lack of quantitative understanding of hydrological niche ...

Mathematical modeling of tight roof periodical falling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The paper proposes a method to determine of a coal seam roof falling step basing upon the analysis of stress and strain state of the rock mass area with mine workings formed as a result of coal preparatory and extraction operations.

Hardening and Hollowing Out Private Property: Rentiership, Dispossession, and Planetary Extraction in the Marcellus Shale

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Southwestern Pennsylvania (SWPA) has long been an energy extractive periphery, continuously remade through cycles of dispossession and accumulation. Here we examine the changing dynamics of private property in these cycles and its central role in the latest phase of extraction—unconventional oil and gas development (UOGD).

Indications for different types of brittle failure due to active coal mining using waveform similarities of induced seismic events [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2013
Longwall mining activity in the Ruhr coal mining district leads to mining-induced seismicity. For detailed studies the seismicity of a single longwall panel beneath the town of Hamm-Herringen in the eastern Ruhr area was monitored between June 2006 and ...

Method for Characterizing the Development State and Spatiotemporal Evolution of Mining‐Induced Overburden Fractures

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Mining‐induced coal seam extraction causes deformation and fracturing of the overburden, leading to the development of fractures, which pose significant threats to mine safety, surface structures, and natural ecosystems. To address the challenge of quantitatively characterizing overburden fractures caused by coal seam mining, this study, taking the 12 ...

Review of an Improved Longwall Panel Layout for Ground Control in Longwall Mining

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
Conventional longwall layout (CLL) for mining coal, trona, etc. is still fraught with problems including low resource recovery, wavy ground surface subsidence, bumps or rockbursts, gateroad support and maintenance, poisonous air hazard, spontaneous ...

Distribution Characteristics of Stress Sources and Surrounding Rock Structure Control Techniques of Gob‐Side Entry Driving in Extra‐Thick Coal Seam

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To address the challenges of surrounding rock control caused by complex stress sources and intense ground pressure in gob‐side entry driving (GED) with narrow coal pillars under extra‐thick coal seams, this study takes the 10 m‐thick coal seam 8204 panel of Tashan Coal Mine as the engineering background.

The engineering geology of the Nottingham area, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nottingham was built near a crossing point on the River Trent in the East Midlands of England. Initially, the City developed on a low sandstone hill close to the north bank of the river, which provided a secure, well-drained location above the marshes ...
