Study on Key Controlling Factors of Fracture Propagation by Shaped Charge Blasting in Coal Seams

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Gas drainage is the fundamental approach to controlling gas disasters in coal mines. For single low‐permeability coal seams, it should be supplemented by coal seam permeability enhancement technologies to improve gas drainage efficiency. This paper conducted a numerical simulation study on the key controlling factors affecting the fracturing effect of ...

Guidelines for the Use of Synthetic Fluid Dust Control Palliatives on Unpaved Roads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The amount of small soil particles, dust, lost from typical unpaved roads to fugitive dust is staggering. A 1 km stretch of unpaved road can contribute over 2400 kg of dust to the atmosphere (4.2 ton/mile) in a typical 3-month summer season.

Numerical Evaluation on Dynamic Response of Existing Underlying Tunnel Induced by Blasting Excavation of a Subway Tunnel

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2017
In Southwest China, most regions are mountainous, where traditional drill-and-blast method is adopted to excavate relatively harder rocks. However, blasting would cause vibration to adjacent structures and might result in damage or even failure.

Research on Precise Identification of Rock Strength Based on Bolt Drilling Parameters

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Drilling detection test platform. ABSTRACT During roadway excavation, the presence of weak interlayers and fractured rock masses significantly affects roof stability. To achieve timely and effective roadway support, it is crucial to identify and predict different rock types based on drilling signals from roof bolters.
