Distribution Law of In Situ Stress and Its Engineering Application in Gateroad Maintenance: A Case Study by Guangchao Zhang, You Li, Guangzhe Tao, Miao Chen, Ruihua Xu, Hanqing Guo, Devkota Bidit, Guanglei Zhou, Zhi Qu, Hao Zuo

“…According to the geological evolution process, it is preliminarily inferred that the maximum principal stress direction of the Guotun coal mine is northwest by west to southeast by east (NWW∼SEE). (2) Compared with the surrounding mines, the average value of the maximum principal stress in the Guotun coal mine is slightly higher, and there is a significant difference in the direction of in situ stress. The arc structure within the mine is the main reason for the deflection of the stress direction. (3) The lateral pressure coefficients KH, Kh, and Kav show a nonlinear distribution with increased depth, and the three coefficients have a decreasing trend. …”
