Abstract

As the depth of coal mining increases, rockbursts become more severe, and multiple rockburst accidents have previously occurred, seriously affecting coal mine production safety. With the Hegang mining area as the research object and using field measurement and numerical simulation as the research methods, the geological and tectonic characteristics of each impact mine in the Hegang mining area are analyzed to obtain the tectonic stress field distribution characteristics of each mine and the tectonic stress field distribution trend in the Hegang mining area. The maximum horizontal principal stress and the minimum horizontal principal stress on the energy field in the overrun area of the retrieval working face is analyzed via numerical simulation, and the influence trend of the ground stress on the impact ground pressure is finally obtained. Results show that using the typical working face where rockburst occurs as the geological proto-type, the influence of the direction of the ground stress field, the maximum horizontal principal stress and the minimum horizontal principal stress on the energy field in the overrun area of the retrieval working face is analyzed via numerical simulation, and the influence trend of the ground stress on the impact ground pressure is finally obtained. When the angle is 70°~90°, an energy peak in the overrun area of the working face reaches its maximum. The ratio of the minimum horizontal stress to the vertical stress is positively correlated with the energy concentration in the overrun area of the working face, but its change has a minimal effect on the energy distribution in the overrun area of the working face. When this ratio is increased from 0.6 to 1.4, the peak energy of the simulated working face only increases by 8.22%, and the energy concentration area remains basically unchanged.
