The deformation and failure process of coal rock under different strain rates is a significant challenge which must be solved in dynamic excavation. It is important to study the influence of strain rate on the evolution of coal rock crack. The triaxial compression tests and acoustic emission tests under the strain rate of 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹ to 10⁻³ s⁻¹ were...

Rock burst is a typical dynamic disaster in deep underground coal mining. Based on the support problems of the deep roadways in fully mechanized caving face 401111 of Hujiahe Coal Mine suffering from rock burst in Shaanxi Province of China, the failure law and influencing factors of the surrounding rock of the roadway are analyzed. The results show that the deformation of surrounding rock in the roadway shows the characteristics of elastic, plastic transformation, rheology, and expansion. At the same time, it has the typical characteristics of deep roadway, such as the fast deformation speed, long duration, asymmetric deformation, and large loose broken area of surrounding rock. Based on the principle of “strengthening support in shallow zones” and “deep pressure relief in deep zones” in the surrounding rock, the control scheme of surrounding rock in the return roadway of fully mechanized caving working face 401111 is proposed by taking the large diameter pressure relief and deep hole blasting as the main means of pressure relief. The practice shows that the surrounding rock of the return roadway is relatively stable after the implementation of the new scheme, which shows that the design of the new support scheme is reasonable and reliable. It is of great significance for the stability control of surrounding rock of the mining roadway suffering from rock burst.
The stress threshold is a key stress indicator of crack evolution of coal and rock bodies around boreholes during progressive damage. To investigate the crack evolution characteristics of coal and rock bodies around boreholes, digital speckle correlation method tests were conducted on intact specimens, specimens with boreholes, and specimens with grouted boreholes, and the characteristic parameters, such as the stress threshold, surface deformation field, crack opening and shear, and strain energy density, were quantitatively analyzed. The results show that (1) the distribution characteristics of surface cracks on the specimen are affected by the borehole structure and grouting; (2) the crack displacement evolution of coal and rock specimens remain basically stable at the initial stage of loading. In the middle and later stages, the cracks are continuously opening and shearing, which directly leads to the damage of the specimen; (3) the energy accumulation and release law of coal and rock bodies is related to the evolution of localization zone. In different areas outside the localization zone, the strain energy density shows different characteristics; (4) the tensile crack is the main reason for the destruction of coal and rock bodies around boreholes. During the progressive damage, the tensile cracks at the upper and lower ends of specimen experience the process of opening, closing and reopening. The presence of cohesion g(x) reduces the crack tensile stress intensity factor, so that the crack is in a balanced state before penetration, which is conducive to the connection and penetration of other cracks. The results provide theoretical guidance for the optimization design of gas extraction boreholes construction and grouting.
