Stress State of a Coal Pillar in Fully Mechanized Longwall Mining in Dislocation Zone
Stress state of rock mass during fully mechanized longwalling in dislocation zone is analyzed. In focus is the variant of crossing the dislocation zone with disassembling the fully mechanized longwall system and its re-assembling in a new room. Stress redistribution in coal and host rocks when heading approaches dislocation and in post-dislocation mining from the new assembling room is determined.
