Abstract
In view of the occurrence conditions of inclined coalbed, the deformation and failure characteristics of the main roof will affect the safe production of the working face. Therefore, the study of the deformation and failure characteristics of the main roof in the inclined coalbed has guiding significance for the control of surrounding rock. This paper takes the II1042 working face of Taoyuan Coal Mine as the research background, adopts the methods of theoretical analysis, numerical calculation, and field practice to analyze the evolutionary characteristics of the initial failure of the main roof of the working face under the background of the inclined coalbed, and explores the mechanical behavior characteristics of the working face roof during the mining of inclined coalbed. Based on the elastic thin plate theory, a mechanical model of the overlying rock roof of a large-angle coal seam is established, and the mechanical characteristics of the surrounding rock under the initial failure of the main roof under the unbalanced load are studied. The stress distribution characteristics of the lower surface are summarized, and the evolution law of the initial fracture of the main roof is summarized. According to the actual geological conditions of the II1042 working face of Taoyuan Coal Mine, the failure characteristics of the main roof and the initial breaking step distance are obtained by analysis, and the analysis results are verified by monitoring the mine pressure of each part of the target working face on site. The research results show that: ① Under the unbalanced load of the inclined coalbed, the deflection surface of the main roof of the coal seam is asymmetrical with respect to the arrangement direction of the working face, and the maximum deflection point is located at the upper middle position of the working face, namely (a/2, 1.836 b/π), and the main roof of the working face breaks for the first time when it advances to 35 m. ② With the advancement of the working face, the two long sides of the roof break first. With the deflection and deformation of the roof, the tensile stress in the middle of the main roof reaches the tensile strength of the rock and breaks, and then the two short sides of the roof break under the action of the breaking and turning of the rock, and the upper short side will break before the lower one. ③ According to the monitoring and analysis of the rock pressure at each part of the working face, it is judged that the initial pressure step distance is between 28.2 m and 34.6 m, which is consistent with the theoretical analysis results.
