[0068] Figure 2 A flow chart is established for the stress wave propagation theoretical model of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0069] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0070] To address the problem that existing analysis methods often have difficulty in fully considering the impact of the complex internal structure of coal and rock and the non-uniform stress distribution on wave propagation, and also have limitations in dealing with the interference effect of multiple types of stress waves and complex boundary conditions, please refer to Figure 1-2 , this embodiment provides the following technical solutions:

[0071] An analysis method for stress wave propagation in coal and rock media includes the following steps:

[0072] S1. Determine the physical and mechanical properties and parameters of coal rock, including elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, density, compressive strength, and tensile strength. Identify natural fractures and bedding in coal rock, and assess the impact of these characteristics on overall failure and damage of coal rock.

[0073] The elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, density, compressive strength and tensile strength of coal rock are measured through uniaxial compression test, triaxial compression test, Brazilian splitting test and other methods, and the natural cracks and bedding information in coal rock are identified and obtained through microscope and CT scanning technology.

[0074] S2. Establish a theoretical model of stress wave propagation that incorporates the internal structure and stress distribution characteristics of coal and rock. Model each type of stress wave generated during the impact coal breaking process, and set the model's boundary conditions, initial conditions, impact load, and initial stress state of the coal and rock.

[0075] S3. Use the finite element method (FEM) and discrete element method (DEM) to solve the model, record the propagation process of stress waves in coal and rock, including the propagation speed, attenuation characteristics and energy dissipation of stress waves, output the calculation results, and describe the interference effects of various types of stress waves;

[0076] S4. Verify the reliability of the proposed model in predicting stress wave propagation characteristics by comparing it with actual earthquake data or industrial test data;

[0077] S5. Based on the verification results, change the model parameters, re-perform the numerical simulation, observe the changes in the model output, evaluate the impact of different parameter changes on the model output, and find out the key parameters and their sensitivity.

[0078] Establishing the stress wave propagation theoretical model includes the following steps:

[0079] According to the actual geological data of coal rock, Petre l software is used to establish a three-dimensional geometric model, including the geometric shape, cracks, bedding and internal structure of coal rock;

[0080] Mesh the three-dimensional geometric model to generate finite element or discrete element mesh. For complex coal and rock structures, use unstructured mesh.

[0081] Specifically, the 3D geometric model is meshed to generate a finite element or discrete element mesh, including:

[0082] Extracting first geological data of the actual coal rock, wherein the first geological data includes the number of coal rock layers, the thickness of each layer, and the dip angle of the formation;

[0083] Comparing the number of coal and rock layers with a preset coal and rock layer number threshold;

[0084] comparing the overall thickness of the coal rock with a preset overall thickness threshold;

[0085] When the number of coal rock layers exceeds a preset coal rock layer number threshold and the overall thickness of the coal rock does not exceed a preset overall thickness threshold, a geological evaluation coefficient is obtained using the first geological data; otherwise, a finite element or discrete element mesh is generated by meshing the three-dimensional geometric model according to a preset initial mesh density;

[0086] The geological evaluation coefficient is obtained by the following formula:

[0087]

[0088] Where G represents the geological evaluation coefficient; D represents the overall thickness of the coal rock; n represents the number of coal rock layers; H i represents the thickness of the i-th coal layer; A represents the dip angle of the formation; H c Indicates the preset reference value of the thickness of each coal layer; D y Indicates the preset overall thickness threshold; n y Indicates the preset coal layer number threshold; H p It represents the average thickness of the n-layer coal rock;

[0089] Comparing the geological evaluation coefficient with a preset evaluation coefficient threshold;

[0090] When the geological evaluation coefficient is lower than a preset evaluation coefficient threshold, the three-dimensional geometric model is meshed according to a preset initial mesh density to generate a finite element or discrete element mesh;

[0091] When the geological evaluation coefficient is not lower than a preset evaluation coefficient threshold, the grid density is set, and the three-dimensional geometric model is meshed according to the set grid density to generate a finite element or discrete element grid.

[0092] The technical effect of the above-mentioned technical solution is that it can adaptively adjust the mesh density based on the geological characteristics of the coal rock (such as the number of coal rock layers, thickness of each layer, overall thickness, and formation dip). This adaptability ensures that the meshing can be optimized for specific geological conditions, thereby improving simulation accuracy and efficiency. By introducing a geological evaluation coefficient, the solution can more accurately assess the geological complexity of the coal rock. When the geological conditions of the coal rock are more complex (such as a large number of layers, large thickness variations, and large formation dips), the geological evaluation coefficient is correspondingly increased, triggering a finer meshing to improve simulation accuracy. Conversely, for coal rock with relatively simple geological conditions, a coarser meshing is used to save computing resources. The solution effectively controls the meshing density by pre-setting thresholds for the number of coal rock layers, overall thickness, and evaluation coefficient. This control method enables dynamic allocation of computing resources based on the geological complexity of the coal rock, avoiding unnecessary resource waste while ensuring simulation accuracy in key areas. This technical solution is not only applicable to coal rock simulation analysis but can also be extended to the simulation of other geological bodies with complex geological structures. By adjusting preset thresholds and parameters, this solution can flexibly adapt to different geological conditions and simulation requirements. In fields such as coal mining and underground engineering, this technical solution can provide engineers with more accurate geological simulation results, helping them make more informed decisions. For example, in coal mining, by simulating the mechanical behavior of coal and rock, potential risks can be predicted and preventive measures can be taken.

[0093] In summary, this technical solution achieves accurate simulation of coal and rock geological characteristics and optimal allocation of computing resources through the introduction of adaptive grid division and geological evaluation coefficients, providing strong support for research and engineering practice in related fields.

[0094] Specifically, when the geological evaluation coefficient is not lower than a preset evaluation coefficient threshold, the grid density is set, including:

[0095] Extracting first geological data of the actual coal rock, wherein the first geological data includes the number of coal rock layers, the thickness of each layer, and the dip angle of the formation;

[0096] Extracting second geological data of the actual coal rock, wherein the second geological data includes the number and width of cracks in each layer of coal rock;

[0097] Setting a grid density using the first geological data and the second geological data in combination with a preset initial grid density;

[0098] The grid density is obtained by the following formula:

[0099]

[0100] Where P represents the grid density; P c represents the critical pressure; P0 represents the preset initial grid density; n represents the number of coal layers; H i represents the thickness of the i-th coal layer; A represents the dip angle of the formation; H c represents the preset reference value of the thickness of each coal rock layer; m represents the number of cracks in the i-th coal rock layer; L j represents the crack width corresponding to the jth crack in the i-th coal rock layer; L b represents the standard deviation of the overall crack width corresponding to the n-layer coal rock; L max Indicates the maximum crack width corresponding to the n-layer coal rock; L bmax Indicates the standard deviation of the crack width of the coal rock layer corresponding to the maximum crack width; L min Indicates the minimum crack width corresponding to the n-layer coal rock; L bmin It represents the standard deviation of the crack width of the coal rock layer corresponding to the minimum crack width.

[0101] The technical effect of the above-mentioned technical solution is that it not only considers basic geological data of the coal rock (such as the number of coal rock layers, thickness of each layer, and formation dip), but also incorporates more detailed geological data such as the number and width of fractures. This comprehensive consideration allows the grid density setting to be more closely aligned with actual geological conditions, improving the accuracy and realism of the simulation. By combining the first and second geological data, the solution can more accurately assess the geological complexity of the coal rock. Assuming the geological evaluation coefficient is not lower than a preset threshold, the grid density set based on this comprehensive data can more meticulously reflect the internal structure and mechanical properties of the coal rock, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the simulation. The grid density setting in this technical solution is a dynamic process, adjusted in real time based on the actual geological data of the coal rock. This dynamic adjustment mechanism ensures that the grid division can respond promptly to the complexity and variability of the coal rock, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the simulation. Although the solution considers more geological factors in the grid density setting, it does not increase unnecessary computational burden. On the contrary, by rationally setting the grid density, the solution can optimize the allocation of computing resources and improve computational efficiency while ensuring simulation accuracy. Because this solution comprehensively considers multiple geological factors of coal and rock, and dynamically adjusts the grid density based on these factors, the simulation results are closer to the actual geological conditions. This reliability is crucial for decision-making in fields such as coal and rock mining and underground engineering, mitigating potential risks and improving project safety. This technical solution is not only applicable to the simulation analysis of coal and rock, but can also be extended to the simulation of other geological bodies with similar geological structures and characteristics. By adjusting the preset initial grid density and related parameters, the solution can flexibly adapt to different geological conditions and simulation requirements.

[0102] In summary, this technical solution achieves accurate simulation of coal and rock geological characteristics and optimizes the allocation of computing resources by comprehensively considering multiple geological factors of coal and rock and dynamically adjusting grid density. This technical solution not only improves the accuracy and reliability of the simulation but also enhances its scalability and applicability, providing strong support for research and engineering practice in related fields.
