Longwall top coal caving (LTCC) mining is the most efficient method for thick and extrathick coal seam extraction. It is extensively applied in western China. 15 As illustrated in Figure 1, ... coal mining is in the process of being transformed from automation to intelligent mining. Nowadays, highyield, highefficiency automatic LTCC mining ...

An outline of the longwall mining process is necessary in order to explain these problems in detail. The longwall mining process. A coal seam is typically a contiguous wedge of coal, of varying height, sandwiched between layers of rock. The goal of the coal mining process is to extract as much of this seam as possible (or at least, the high ...

The overburden rock strata fractures and collapses as the extraction of a longwall panel. Knowledge of the extents and characteristics of the fractured zone is important to evaluating many mininginduced issues including abutment pressure relief, methane production, and ground subsidence prediction. In this study, a physical model was initially created to produce the process of longwall mining ...

When the longwall (LW) face is approaching its finishoff line, the coal mining process generally slows down and then stops to allow the LW equipment to be relocated to a newly prepared installation face following standard procedures, which usually takes approximately 1 ~ 2 months (Kang et al. 2016).During this period, the air is highly likely to penetrate into the active goaf via various ...

The longwallmining method is a continuous mining system that was developed for mining coal deposits uniform in thickness and slope or where the overburden pressures may crush support pillars or for improving productivity. This method relies on the complete extraction of the coal in a designated area referred to as a panel (of solid coal).

In the longwall mining method, mine development is carried out in such a manner that large blocks of coal, usually 100 to 300 metres wide and 1,000 to 3,000 metres long, are available for complete extraction (see photograph).A block of coal is extracted in slices, the dimensions of which are fixed by the height of coal extracted, the width of the longwall face, and the thickness of the slice ...

With mining depth increasing, the mining structure becomes more and more complex. It is easy to cause dynamic disaster during coal mining. To reveal the failure process of gasbearing coal at complex mining environment, the dynamics experiments were conducted through Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar of gasbearing coal (SHPBGAS) experimental system.

The natural caving method can be commonly applied to manage goaves in the longwall coal mining approach [1, 2].The accumulation form and mechanical characteristics of the rock mass medium in the goaf directly influence its capacity to support the roof and floor of the cave, thereby affecting the structure of the overlying strata and features of ground subsidence [].

In 2015, 40 longwall mines provided nearly 60% of the US coal production from underground mining methods. This represents a substantial yet gradual increase from just under 50% over the last 5 years. As a result of this increased production share, the percentage of groundfallrelated fatalities in longwall mines has also increased when compared to all US underground coal mines. Additionally ...
