Abstract
In this paper, through a similar simulation experiment, the roof rock breaking situation of horizontal sublevel caving method in extremely thick and steep inclined coal seam is studied, and the response characteristics of coal and rock mass under different dynamic load strength are analyzed. The mechanical response mechanisms of different mining positions under the influence of dynamic load and the law characteristics of the surrounding rock from elastic deformation to impact failure are revealed. The study shows that with the increase in the horizontal sublevel mining depth, the roof is gradually broken from the suspended state, and the broken block fills the goaf. The thin rock strata form a granular structure, and the thick rock strata form a block splicing and occlusion structure. On the same side of the coal seam floor, the concentrated stress gradually increases, and the closer the distance from the goaf is, the more obvious the stress change in the coal body below is. With the increase in dynamic load energy, the dynamic instability and failure of the dynamic load side of the roadway occur, and the stress of the bottom coal in the intake roadway of the working face increases due to the influence of the lateral abutment pressure of the goaf, while the stress of the bottom coal in the middle of the working face and the return airway decreases due to the mining of the upper section, which reveals that the dynamic load-induced dynamic behavior requires the critical energy. Due to vibration waves, the dynamic load effect is short, and the reflective stretching is generated on the surface of the roadway, resulting in the failure of the roadway. The peak acceleration increases linearly with the increase in source energy, indicating that the stronger the dynamic load energy is, the higher the impact risk is. When the dynamic load intensity is constant, the peak acceleration decreases with the increase in propagation distance, indicating that the vibration wave has the dominant propagation direction, and there are certain directional differences in the effect of coal and rock. When the dynamic load is applied, the impact failure of the coal body has a critical displacement. When the displacement of the roadway surface is less than this critical displacement, the impact failure will not occur.
