Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coal seam mining subsidence, and particularly relates to a method and a system for predicting coal seam mining subsidence. Background Art

[0002] With the gradual reduction of coal resources and the gradual improvement of mining technologies, coal mining has shifted to the western region with large topographic undulations and large coal seam dips.

[0003] In the prior art, when predicting mining subsidence in mountainous areas, the prediction calculation method of surface movement and deformation in the "three-under" coal mining regulations is usually adopted. The surface movement and deformation in mountainous areas is the vector superposition of the surface movement and deformation on flat ground under the same geological mining conditions and the mining-induced slip deformation in mountainous areas. In practical applications, it is found that there are still some problems in the mountain surface subsidence prediction model in the regulations: due to the limitation of topographic conditions, the influence amount of surface slip above the goaf boundary is sometimes not the largest; in the case of approximate full mining or over-full mining, sometimes the slip influence in the middle of the goaf is not 0; the slip influence function cannot comprehensively reflect the complex surface slip situation in mountainous coal mining, and the mountain slip model needs to be corrected.

Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0046] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for predicting coal seam mining subsidence, including the following steps:

[0047] Step 1: Obtain the mining depth of the corner points of the mining working face within the coal seam mining working area.

[0048] Step 2: Use the search algorithm to obtain the grid to which each subsidence prediction point on the surface of the mining working area belongs in the digital elevation model; according to the corner coordinates of the grid to which each subsidence prediction point belongs, use the bilinear interpolation method to interpolate the grid to which each subsidence prediction point belongs; according to the interpolation result, obtain the elevation of each subsidence prediction point on the surface of the mining working area; select the maximum elevation and the minimum elevation from the elevations of all the prediction points on the surface of the mining working area; input the maximum elevation and the minimum elevation into the mining depth correction model respectively to correct the mining depth of the corner points of the mining face, and obtain the maximum value corrected corner point mining depth and the minimum value corrected corner point mining depth.

[0050] The following is a specific explanation of the present invention:

[0051] 1. Improve the defects of the existing mountain subsidence prediction model.

[0052] 1.1 Defects existing in the existing model.

[0053] In practical applications, it is found that there are still some problems in the mountain surface subsidence prediction model in the regulations: ① Due to the limitation of topographic conditions, the surface slip influence amount above the goaf boundary is sometimes not the largest; ② In the case of approximate full mining or over-full mining, sometimes the slip influence in the middle of the goaf is not 0; ③ The slip influence function cannot fully reflect the complex surface slip situation of mountain coal mining, and the mountain slip model needs to be corrected. ④ The parameters of the mountain mining surface subsidence prediction model are numerous, and the conventional method is easily troubled by problems such as parameter divergence and falling into local optimum during the parameter inversion process, and it is often difficult to obtain the optimal solution of the mountain surface movement prediction parameters.

[0054] 1.2 Principle and method of improvement.

[0055] Through research, it is found that on hillsides, due to the action of gravitational pull, there is a downward slope slip, which in turn causes subsidence in the downhill direction; while in the intermediate slopes and valley areas, due to sudden changes in the slip direction or slip volume, extrusion occurs, causing the ground surface to rise. After analyzing the research results of predecessors and considering the influence of surface elevation changes on the subsidence results, a method for correcting the movement and deformation values in the case of flat ground mining using the digital elevation model (DEM) of the mining area surface is proposed. The basic steps of this method are as follows: ① First, combine the topographic data of the mining area to give the average elevation within the predicted range, and based on this average elevation, give the mining depth of the corner points of the working face to be predicted; ② Use the search algorithm to find the grid to which each predicted point belongs in the digital elevation model, and then, according to the corner point coordinates of this grid, use the bilinear interpolation method to interpolate the predicted points to obtain the elevation of each predicted point, and obtain the maximum and minimum elevations within the predicted range; ③ Correct the mining depth of the original corner points of the working face to be predicted according to the obtained maximum and minimum elevations, and on this basis, conduct subsidence predictions respectively; ④ According to the predicted results corrected by the maximum and minimum elevations, finally obtain the subsidence prediction results that basically conform to the actual situation by linear interpolation. The method flow chart is as Figure 1 shown.

[0056] The main formulas of the mountain area correction model are as follows:

[0057] (1) Calculation of the elevation of the predicted point, as Figure 2 shown:

[0058] (1)

[0059] In the formula: are the elevations of the four corner points of the DEM grid; is the elevation of the point to be obtained.

[0060] (2) Calculate the maximum and minimum elevations:

[0061] (2)

[0062] In the formula: is the maximum elevation within the predicted range; is the minimum elevation within the predicted range.

[0063] (3) Mining depth correction:

[0064] (3)

[0065] In the formula: is the corrected maximum mining depth; is the corrected minimum mining depth; is the mining depth set according to the average elevation; is the maximum elevation within the predicted range; is the minimum elevation within the predicted range; is the average elevation within the set predicted range.

[0066] (4) Subsidence prediction:

[0067] Since the probability integral method is adopted in the mining subsidence prediction model, only the subsidence of any point on the ground surface is taken as an example for illustration.

[0068] W( x , y ) = W0·C( x )·C( y ) (4)

[0069] In the formula: and are called the subsidence distribution coefficients in the main section, x , y are the abscissa and ordinate of each subsidence prediction point respectively, and W( x , y ) is the subsidence amount of each subsidence prediction point, and W0 is the subsidence amount of the coal seam roof.

[0070] (5) Correction of the prediction result in mountainous areas:

[0071] (5)

[0072] In the formula: is the corrected subsidence value; is the subsidence value predicted by the minimum mining depth; is the subsidence value predicted by the maximum mining depth; is the maximum elevation within the predicted range; is the minimum elevation within the predicted range; is the elevation of the prediction point.

[0073] The embodiment of the present invention provides a prediction system for coal seam mining subsidence, including:

[0074] A data acquisition module, configured to acquire the mining depth of the corner points of the mining face within the working area of coal seam mining.

[0075] The mining depth correction module is used to obtain the grid to which each subsidence prediction point on the surface of the mining working area belongs in the digital elevation model by using a search algorithm; interpolate the grid to which each subsidence prediction point belongs by using the bilinear interpolation method according to the corner coordinates of the grid to which each subsidence prediction point belongs; obtain the elevation of each subsidence prediction point on the surface of the mining working area according to the interpolation result; select the maximum elevation and the minimum elevation from the elevations of all the prediction points on the surface of the mining working area; input the maximum elevation and the minimum elevation into the mining depth correction model respectively to correct the mining depth of the corner points of the mining face, and obtain the maximum value corrected corner point mining depth and the minimum value corrected corner point mining depth.

[0076] The subsidence prediction module is used to input the maximum value corrected corner point mining depth and the minimum value corrected corner point mining depth into the mining subsidence prediction model respectively, and obtain the subsidence prediction results of each subsidence prediction point predicted by the maximum value corrected corner point mining depth and the subsidence prediction results of each subsidence prediction point predicted by the minimum value corrected corner point mining depth; according to the difference between the subsidence prediction results of each subsidence prediction point predicted by the maximum value corrected corner point mining depth and the subsidence prediction results of each subsidence prediction point predicted by the minimum value corrected corner point mining depth, and the difference between the maximum elevation and the minimum elevation, use the linear interpolation method to correct the subsidence value of each subsidence prediction point, and predict the subsidence value that conforms to the actual situation.

[0077] A specific embodiment is as follows:

[0078] 1. Design a subsidence prediction software for mountainous areas.

[0079] 1.1 System introduction and overall framework.

[0080] Based on the mining subsidence prediction model in the "Regulations on the Retention and Pressurized Coal Mining of Coal Pillars for Buildings, Water Bodies, Railways and Main Roadways" and the self-designed mountain area correction model, and drawing on the advantages of existing mining subsidence prediction software, this system designs and implements a mining subsidence prediction system applicable to a certain mining area. This system strives to be easy to operate, have a reasonable architecture, good visualization effects, and practical value, and mainly realizes functions such as steady-state and dynamic mining subsidence prediction, contour line drawing, profile line drawing, subsidence area and volume analysis, building damage zoning, waterlogging area analysis, protective coal pillars, and parameter calculation.

[0081] Mining subsidence science is an interdisciplinary subject, and computer technology plays an important role in it. In order to automate data processing and visualize data, many researchers have developed mining subsidence prediction systems. Through comparison and testing, it is found that this system has the following advantages:

[0082] (1) This software system is a further improvement based on the previous one. It adopts the development mode of "platform + plug-in", is based on the AutoCAD platform, and uses.NET secondary development technology to realize the prediction and analysis of mining subsidence in the mining area, with good system compatibility.

[0083] (2) The software has a high degree of integration and a high degree of functional integration. Only by using this software can functions such as data calculation and engineering drawing generation be completed, without the need to rely on other software for post-processing of predicted data.

[0084] (3) The data has a high degree of visualization. This system combines the theory of mining subsidence prediction and the principle of automatic generation of contour lines, as well as computer graphics technology, and integrates the function of automatic generation of surface deformation contour lines, with prediction and output integrated, and is convenient to use. Figure 1 Integrated and easy to use.

[0085] The overall structure of the mining subsidence prediction system in a certain mining area is as Figure 3 shown.

[0101] f) Estimated time: Select the estimated time of the working face.

[0102] g) Coal winning rate. The coal winning rate is input according to the average coal winning rate, that is, coal winning rate = working face strike length / (mining end time - mining start time). When the coal winning rate uses "+", the advancing direction of the working face is along the strike; when the coal winning rate uses "-", the advancing direction of the working face is against the strike.

[0103] h) The estimated parameters refer to: q is the subsidence coefficient, tanβ is the tangent of the main influence angle, b is the horizontal movement coefficient, θ is the maximum subsidence angle, S1 is the left inflection point offset, S2 is the right inflection point offset, S3 is the upper inflection point offset, and S4 is the lower inflection point offset.

[0105] i) Click the "Obtain coal seam dip azimuth angle" button to pick up the coal seam dip azimuth angle. The azimuth angle is picked up in the way of determining the direction by two points, that is, first pick up the starting point (coal seam uphill direction), and then pick up an ending point (coal seam downhill direction). The direction from the starting point to the ending point is the coal seam dip azimuth angle (you can view the prompts in the CAD command line); it can also be directly input in the text box beside.

[0113] a) Click the "Pick" button to pick grid data. The grid is a rectangle covering the entire predicted working face range (considering that the number of prediction points should not be too many, so attention should be paid to the size of the picking range and the grid division spacing). Determine the rectangle according to the upper left vertex and the lower right vertex, and then a prompt for the prediction direction will appear. The prediction direction is determined by the starting point and the ending point, that is, pick 2 points (you can view the prompts in the CAD command line). Select the project name to which it belongs and enter the division spacing in the pop-up dialog box, and then click the "Save" button to store the current data. Note: If subsequent operations such as drawing contour lines need to be performed, only the "Mesh feature picking" command can be executed.

[0114] b) If you want to view or delete the created data, you can click the "Data browsing" button.

[0115] c) Finally, exit.

[0116] (4) File generation

[0117] After entering the working face parameters, click the menu command "Mountain area prediction / Generate predicted data file" to open the "Generate predicted data file" dialog box. Select a project in the left list box, and the right list box will display the working faces it contains.

[0118] Click the "Edit data file" button to open the just-generated file.

[0119] Finally, exit.

[0120] (5) Prediction calculation

[0121] The mountain area correction model corrects the prediction results according to the digital elevation model (DEM) of the predicted area. The DEM can be obtained by manual digitization or image acquisition, etc. Its data format is (X, Y, H), and it is saved as a.dat format file, as Figure 5 shown.

[0122] Click on the menu command "Mountain Area Prediction / Estimation Calculation". This function is executed in four steps, namely: fitting the DEM with the elevation of the prediction points, predicting the maximum elevation mining depth, predicting the minimum elevation mining depth, and data integration and processing.

[0123] Step 1: When fitting the DEM with the elevation of the prediction points, the following interface will pop up.

[0124] Select the DEM data file and open it. After the first step is completed, directly proceed with the prediction of the maximum elevation mining depth. Since a large amount of data needs to be processed, it may take a relatively long time. The calculation time will be displayed in the CAD command window at any time. After the calculation is completed, it will be prompted to save as a data file.

[0125] After storing the file, click "Calculation End - Exit". (It should be noted that this process is carried out twice, and just operate according to the prompts.)

[0126] After the second step is completed, directly proceed with the third step of predicting the minimum elevation mining depth. The operation is similar to the execution process of the second step; after the third step is completed, the software will automatically perform the fourth step of data integration and processing. Since the amount of data to be processed may be very large, please be patient during the execution process.

[0129] 1.3 Prediction error and effect analysis.

[0130] The subsidence prediction errors of a certain mining area subsidence prediction system mainly include: ① model error, ② parameter error, ③ mining thickness error.

[0131] ① Model error analysis: Since there are relatively few rock movement observations for mining subsidence in a certain mining area and there are certain deficiencies in the existing data, to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the prediction results, the probability integral method model recommended in the "Regulations on the Setting of Coal Pillars for Buildings, Water Bodies, Railways and Main Shaft Roadways and Coal Mining under Pressure" is adopted for the mining subsidence prediction model of the software. This model has been well applied in many mining areas, but there are still certain errors in the prediction of mining subsidence in cases such as steeply inclined coal seams, extremely insufficient mining, and mountainous areas. For the prediction of surface subsidence in mountainous areas, a mountainous area correction model based on DEM is established to eliminate the influence of surface elevation changes on the subsidence results; for the prediction of subsidence in cases of extremely insufficient mining, the method of modifying the subsidence prediction parameters is used to improve the prediction accuracy. Generally speaking, the subsidence prediction model has a relatively high prediction accuracy for the mining subsidence of gently inclined coal seams, near fully mined areas, and flat surface areas, while the prediction accuracy for the mining subsidence in cases such as steeply inclined coal seams, extremely insufficient mining, and mountainous areas is slightly lower.

[0132] ② Parameter error: The correctness of the selection of mining subsidence prediction parameters will directly affect the accuracy of the prediction results. Due to the relatively small amount of rock movement observation data in the study area and the certain lack of existing data, the prediction parameters of a certain mining area can only be obtained by sorting out the observation station data collected from the four coal mines. Therefore, the subsidence prediction accuracy of the four coal mines is relatively high, while other coal mines can be estimated by analogy with the prediction parameters of these four mines, but the prediction accuracy may be slightly lower. The selection of mining subsidence prediction parameters often requires a certain amount of experience, especially when the mining is not sufficient. If the prediction is still based on the parameters of full mining, the prediction result will be too large; on the contrary, if the working face around the expected working face has been mined, the impact of the mined working face on the expected working face must be considered when selecting parameters, otherwise the prediction result will be too small.

[0133] ③ Error in mining thickness: Due to the good occurrence conditions of coal seams in a certain mining area, top coal caving is mostly used for mining. The mining thickness will directly affect the accuracy of the mining subsidence prediction results. It is best to calculate and verify a more accurate mining thickness based on actual conditions such as recovery rate and coal output, otherwise the predicted results will have a large deviation.

[0134] 1.4 Concluding results.

[0135] (1) Through in-depth data analysis and comparison of the applicability of existing mining subsidence prediction models in a certain mining area, the probability integral method model recommended in the "Regulations on Coal Pillar Retention and Compressed Coal Mining in Buildings, Water Bodies, Railways and Main Shafts and Tunnelings" (referred to as the "Three-Down" regulations) was selected as the surface subsidence prediction model for a certain mining area. The surface subsidence in mountainous areas is significantly different from that in plain areas. According to the topographic and geomorphological characteristics of a certain mining area, a DEM-based mountain correction model was established.

[0136] (2) Combine the existing surface movement observation station data to obtain the mining subsidence prediction parameters, and from the subsidence coefficient ( q ), the main influence angle tangent ( tanβ )、Maximum sinking angle( θ )、inflection point offset( S ), and angular parameters, a comprehensive analysis was conducted on parameter selection, and a guide for selecting mining subsidence prediction parameters suitable for a certain mining area was formed.

[0137] (3)The software system for predicting and mapping mining subsidence in mountainous areas has been popularized and used in ten mining areas belonging to a certain coal industry group. Combining the actual mining working faces of multiple coal mines, the subsidence prediction calculation has been carried out using the subsidence prediction software of a certain mining area. The prediction analysis has been carried out respectively from the situations of insufficient mining of a single working face and full mining of multiple working faces. The prediction calculation results basically conform to the actual situations of each mine. It can be seen from the rock movement observation being carried out in a certain coal mine that the surface movement and deformation values obtained by software prediction are basically consistent with the rock movement observation results and conform to the reality.
