Influence of Mine Earthquake Disturbance on the Principal Stress of the Main Roadway near the Goaf and Its Prevention and Control Measures by Penghui Guo, Jiazhuo Li, Xiqing Hao, Heng Cui, Lihua Tian, Wenhao Xie, Jiaqi Chu

“…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. …”

Study on the Key Technology of Controlling the Instability of Deep High-Stress Coal and Rock Mass and Relieving the Danger by Zhijing Zhang, Jianghong Zuo, Dongji Lei

“…The results show the following. (1) The pressure relief effect of the hydraulic cavity on surrounding coal decreases with the increase of distance, and the pressure relief effect is most obvious at 1.0∼2.5 m, in the range of 2.5–3.5 m around the hydraulic drilling hole, the duration, rate, and amplitude of pressure relief are reduced compared with those in the range of less than 2.5 m, while in the range of more than 3.5 m, the effect of pressure relief is very weak. (2) During the period of hydraulic cavitation release hole, the radius of water supply to coal seam is within 1.5 m, which accounts for 79% of coal wall area. (3) It is also a process where the stress distribution in the coal and rock body needs to be rebalanced before and after hydraulic caverning, which is often accompanied by microfracture of coal and rock mass. …”
