The tunnelling,an external disturbance that makes the seepage intensify relatively,is an essential factor for initiating outburst.Under steady tunnelling,seepage ought to tend to be steadily progressive.From its asymptotic solution initiation criterion is obtained.This is described by three conditions,possibility condi- tion—tectonic pressure condition,incubation condition—tunnelling or gas condition and triggering condi- tion—seepage velocity condition.展开更多

In the process of driving 2 000 m tunnel by hydraulic slotting excavation,coal and gas outburst never occurre.The technique could be used to prevent and control potential coal-gas outburst in the proceeding of tunnel driving,and the speed tunneling could be as high as more than 2 times.展开更多

Two kinds of morphology as well as their starting and end states are comparatively studied in this paper. The research results indicate that the outburst coal and rock system is in a chaotic state of lower nested hierarchy before outburst, and the process that lots of holes form owing to continuous outburst of a series of coal shells in a short time is in a rhythmical fast iterative stage of intermittent chaos state. And the state of the coal-gas system is in a stable equilibrium state after outburst. The behaviors of outburst occurrence, development and termination, based on the universal properties of various nonlinear mappings in describing complex problems, can be described by iterative operation in mathematics which uses the Logistic function f (x,μ)=μx(1-x) and the composite function F(3, x) = f(3)(x, μ) as kernel function. The primary equation of relative hole depth x and outburst parameter l in kernel function are given in this paper. The given results can deepen and enrich the understanding of physical essence of outburst.展开更多

The mathematical processing and results of one-dimensional flow under the perfect condition are simple and explicit in this paper, which has the certain practical significance.展开更多

This study focuses on investigating the in-situ coal seam gas content and gas sorption capacity in a representative coal seam with multiple sections (A1, A2, and A3) in the Sydney basin, where the CO_(2) composition exceeds 90%. The fast direct desorption method and associated devices were described in detail and employed to measure the in-situ gas components (Q_(1), Q_(2), and Q_(3)) of the coal seam. The results show that in-situ total gas content (Q_(T)) ranges from 9.48 m^(3)/t for the A2 section to 14.80 m^(3)/t for the A3 section, surpassing the Level 2 outburst threshold limit value, thereby necessitating gas drainage measures. Among the gas components, Q_(2) demonstrates the highest contribution to Q_(T), ranging between 55% and 70%. Furthermore, high-pressure isothermal gas sorption experiments were conducted on coal samples from each seam section to explore their gas sorption capacity. The Langmuir model accurately characterizes CO_(2) sorption behavior, with ft coefcients (R^(2)) greater than 0.99. Strong positive correlations are observed between in-situ gas content and Langmuir volume, as well as between residual gas content (Q_(3)) and sorption hysteresis. Notably, the A3 seam section is proved to have a higher outburst propensity due to its higher Q_(1) and Q_(2) gas contents, lower sorption hysteresis, and reduced coal toughness f value. The insights derived from the study can contribute to the development of efective gas management strategies and enhance the safety and efciency of coal mining operations.展开更多
