INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF HEAT TREATMENT ON RESIDUAL DEFORMATION CHIPPER KNIVES by A. V. Alifanov, V. N. Alekhnovitch, A. М. Milyukova, V. V. Tsuran

“…It is found that the samples made from steel 6HV2S have a deflection value smaller than the samples of steel grades and 9HF U8A.Repair any defects in the form of troughs manage curved by heating the samples to the tempering temperature and the subsequent exposure between steel plates in a hydraulic press under a load to cool the workpiece.Thus, as a result of the research found that the residual deformation-tion (trough) samples of knives from different grades (6HV2S, 9HF, U8A) has a different value, depending on the geometrical parameters of knives (length, thickness, width) and grades. …”

Floor Heave Mechanism and Control Technique of Water‐Rich Soft‐Rock Roadway in Thick Coal Seam by Fulian He, Wenli Zhai, Weixin Liu, Ning Sun, Jiayu Song, Jianlong Zhang, Yanhao Wu

“…The results showed that the main reason for the serious damage to the roadway floor was the low strength of the surrounding rock of the roadway floor, and floor damage was exacerbated by the low support strength, hydraulic effects, and mining impact. A mechanical model of the asymmetric floor heave was established, and it was found that the stability of the roadway floor was positively correlated with the floor rock type, the stress concentration coefficients on the two sides of the roadway, and the burial depth, whereas it was negatively correlated with the cohesive force and internal friction angle of the floor rock mass. …”
