Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of underground engineering safety, and in particular to a coal rock damage stress threshold determination method. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of underground resource development and underground space utilization, with the continuous increase of mining depth, the problem of coal rock stability is increasingly prominent. During the implementation of underground engineering, blasting and excavation operations will inevitably change the stress state of the surrounding coal rock, and the coal rock is in a complex mechanical environment. The change of stress state has a profound and complex influence on the threshold of coal rock. Stress changes can act on coal rock in various ways, such as loading, unloading or dynamic stress process. With the increase of stress, the internal structure of coal rock gradually changes, resulting in changes in its bearing capacity and deformation characteristics. At the same time, the long-term effect of stress may also trigger the rheological behavior of coal rock, further affecting its threshold. The reduction or unloading of stress may cause the threshold of coal rock to recover or adjust to varying degrees. In summary, stress changes have an important influence on the change of coal rock damage stress threshold.

[0003] In the field of deep underground engineering in China, coal rock stability evaluation is an important means to ensure the safety of underground engineering. Changes in the damage stress threshold of coal rock will bring great difficulty and instability factors to the evaluation of coal rock stability. Therefore, determining the damage stress threshold of coal rock is an important technology for evaluating coal rock stability and realizing the safety of deep underground engineering. Relevant research results show that the coal rock failure evolution process can be divided into initial crack closure stage, elastic stage, crack stable expansion stage and crack unstable expansion stage according to the closure stress, crack initiation stress, damage stress and peak stress. The threshold points in each stage represent the nodes of coal rock damage development and change. Determining the damage stress threshold of coal rock can help understand the stress state at which coal rock begins to be damaged, so as to predict potential dangers that may be faced in underground resource development and underground space utilization.

[0004] However, the existing coal rock stress threshold determination method usually has low sensitivity in identifying stress threshold, and can only discover the macroscopic damage of coal rock after the stress reaches a certain threshold, which is difficult to detect the occurrence of damage in the early stage, and there is a certain error in obtaining the damage stress. In addition, the International Society for Rock Mechanics has not yet recommended a method for determining the coal rock stress threshold. At the same time, the research results of coal rock damage stress threshold are scattered, and the data is difficult to obtain and integrate systematically, which cannot be fully utilized in practical application.

[0005] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a coal rock damage stress threshold determination method. SUMMARY
