Moment Tensor Inversion and Stress Evolution of Coal Pillar Failure Mechanism
Abstract Irregular coal pillars left in longwall working faces are prone to stress concentration, resulting in failure and instability of coal pillar. Revealing the failure mechanism of the coal pillars is essential for the accurate prevention of coal pillar-type rockburst. Based on the geological conditions and the residual coal pillars in the 14320 working face of the Dongtan coal mine, this study investigates the failure mechanism and stress evolution characteristics in the abnormal area with irregular coal pillars through microseismic (MS) monitoring, moment tensor inversion, and velocity tomography of MS. The results show that (1) the MS events at the edge of the coal pillars are significantly more greater than those in the core area, in which, failure types of tension and compression occur in the edge and core areas, respectively; (2) the spatial parameters (strike φ, dip angle δ, slip angle γ) of the failure plane in the irregular coal pillar area were determined. The boundary of the irregular coal pillars was dominated by reverse fault sliding, and the core area is dominated by normal fault sliding; and (3) the stress field distribution characteristics of the working face and irregular coal pillars were determined using P-wave velocity tomography. The research findings provide a reference for analyzing the mechanisms of coal pillar failure, instability and the induced rockbursts. Highlights Moment tensor theory is used to analyze the fracture mechanism of coal pillar in mines.Moment tensor theory reveals rupture types and occurrence of the rupture face in different regions of coal pillar.Stress evolution law of coal pillar is obtained by microseismic velocity tomography.
