With the reduction and depletion of shallow energy, the mining depth of coal around the world is increasing year by year, and the mining depth of some coal mines in China has reached kilometers. The main roadway near the goaf with the deep high static stress is very easy to be damaged after being disturbed by the mine earthquake. Taking the main roadway in the no. 1 mining area of Gaojiapu coal mine in Binchang mining area, Shaanxi Province, China, as the engineering background, the high-energy mine earthquake monitored by the on-site microseism is equivalently simulated through the dynamic module of FLAC3D, and the spatial-temporal rotation characteristics of the principal stress of roadway surrounding rock under the disturbance of mine earthquake are studied and analyzed and put forward corresponding prevention and control measures. Research shows early stage of mine earthquake disturbance, roadway roof is first affected, and the principal stress of the roof has the trend of deflection to the side of the goaf. In the middle stage of mine earthquake disturbance, the main body of roof principal stress deflects to the side of goaf, and the deflection range is large. In the later stage of mine earthquake disturbance, the principal stress directions in the surrounding rock reverse rotation, and the reverse rotation angle of the principal stress direction in the roof is the largest. Finally, the asymmetric distribution characteristics of principal stress rotation are verified by using the asymmetric deformation phenomenon on both sides of roadway surrounding rock. Based on the rotation characteristics of principal stress under the dual influence of mine earthquake disturbance and goaf, optimize the layout scheme and blasting parameters of blasting pressure relief holes. The transmission direction of principal stress can be changed by blasting pressure relief method; meanwhile, the transmission of principal stress can be blocked; through the comparison of microseismic activity law before and after pressure relief, pressure relief effect is good. The research results can provide a certain reference basis for coal mine roadway pressure relief and reducing disaster conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Deep high static loading roadway is extremely prone to rock burst under dynamic load disturbance. The "force-energy criterion" for the failure of surrounding rock in such deep roadways and the "energy criterion" for the rock burst was established by considering the stress and energy evolution characteristics of rock burst under this circumstance. Under the engineering background of the main roadway in No.1 mining area of Gaojiapu Coal Mine in Binchang Mining Area, Shaanxi Province, China, the partial stress field and distortion energy field of surrounding rock in the main roadway and the spatial-temporal evolution laws under dynamic load disturbance were simulated and analyzed by using a built-in dynamic module of FLAC3D. Results show that after the dynamic load disturbance, the partial stress and distortion energy are concentrated in the shallow part at two walls of the roadway in the early phase. With the continuous propagation of dynamic load stress wave, the partial stress and distortion energy are transferred to the deep part. The sudden high-energy release occurred in the peak zone of partial stress, leading to the plastic failure of coal and rock mass. Subsequently, the distortion energy was fully accumulated in the original plastic zone and transferred from shallow surrounding rocks to the deep surrounding rocks in the roadway, where the partial stress and distortion energy of coal and rock mass reached the yield conditions. Thus, the original plastic zone was sharply expanded, thereby forming a new plastic zone. The coal and rock mass experienced an approximately static failure when no residual energy (ΔU) was found in it. When ΔU > 0, the rock mass experienced dynamic failure, and ΔU was mainly the volume transformation energy, which is approximately one-half of the total elastic strain energy. ΔU was transformed into the initial kinetic energy of broken coal and rock mass. Thus, the coal and rock mass are burst out. In severe cases, this condition was manifested by the rock burst in the main roadway. An optimization scheme of prevention and control measures for rock burst was proposed on the basis of the above conclusions. The microseismic activity laws before and after the unloading were compared, and a good effect was achieved. The research results can lay a theoretical foundation for predicting and preventing rock bursts in coal mines by actively regulating the disaster-pregnant environment and mitigating the disaster-inducing conditions.
