The Double-Yield (D-Y) model is a widely used method for predicting the mechanical properties of caved rock. However, determining the numerical simulation parameters for this model typically requires extensive trial and error. In this paper, a new approach for parameter inversion of the D-Y model is proposed and applied to a real case study involving repeated mining in multiple coal seams. The proposed framework combines FLAC3D, a finite element numerical simulation software, with a new computational tool developed using MATLAB® App Designer. By applying this framework to the case study, the accuracy and efficiency of parameter determination in the mining area are improved. In addition, a 3D finite element model of multiple coal seams is generated based on the geological information of the case study, and the stress evolution is analyzed. The simulation results are then validated through field measurements, providing valuable reference information for safe and efficient production. Overall, this improved method for parameter inversion of the D-Y model, along with the combined numerical simulation and field measurement approach, enhances the understanding of stress evolution in multiple coal seams and contributes to safer and more efficient mining operations. Highlights: An in-depth analysis was conducted to examine how variations in Double-Yield parameters impact the numerical simulation curve. A breakthrough approach for parameter inversion of the Double-Yield (D-Y) model is introduced, and the computational tool is developed. A 3D finite element model is crafted to analyse the dynamic stress evolution during repeated mining of multiple coal seams. The accuracy of simulation outcomes is bolstered by validation against field measurements of mining-induced stress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
