The deformation of bottom rock masses surrounding a tunnel may lead to floor upheaval,
structural damage and track irregularity during operation when the tunnel is constructed in …

A floor heave is a serious failure phenomenon in mining roadways, especially in soft rock
containing the mine water. Considering the influences of moisture content on rock …

Floor heaving is a phenomenon that occurs in almost all mining roadways and tunnels. It
can restrain the advance of the heading face or cause serious problems during roadway …

Humidity diffusion can stimulate soil deformation. However, evidence for triggering water-
induced excessive floor deformation in underground structures remains elusive. This study …

The floor heave is one of the key factors that can restrict high‐efficiency and safety mining,
especially in the deep roadways with soft rock. Considering the influences of rock fracturing …

The soft-hard interbedded rocks are often encountered in rock engineering such as mining
engineering, tunnel engineering, and natural gas engineering. In this study, the horizontal …

The method of increasing the efficiency of using one of the most common means of auxiliary
transport in underground coal mines—suspended monorails—is presented. Increase of …

A floor heave is usually a serious failure phenomenon in mine roadways, especially in the
conditions of a wet soft rock. There are bright prospects for using a method of reinforcing for …

Mining as one of the fundamental elements of the economy has left tens of thousands of
mines abandoned. With increased urbanisation and population growth, industrial or …

An underground excavation would lead to the redistribution of not only stress magnitude but
also stress direction in the host rock mass. In this paper, an equation was derived to quantify …
