Abstract

In order to sustainably use coal resources and reduce coal mine accidents, the stability evaluation of roadway roofs is particularly important. The existing methods of roof stability evaluation and control application are greatly disjointed, the relationship between roof stability evaluation and early warning control is ignored, and an intelligent evaluation and calculation control system is lacking. Based on the successful application of the roof-cutting non-pillar mining method in various engineering geology and mining conditions, the roof stability evaluation system, mobile intelligent computing system, and engineering application research are carried out. An evaluation index system for roof stability in the roof-cutting non-pillar mining method is established, including the roof rock integrity and the roof-surrounding rock displacement. A comprehensive evaluation method for roof stability grades is proposed based on the coupling of evaluation index grading criteria and improved analytic hierarchy process (AHP) weight assignment. A handheld mobile intelligent platform for roof stability evaluation, roof hazard zone, and control suggestion is developed. The research results have been applied in the coal mine of Hecaogou with good outcomes. This intelligent stability evaluation system will provide an economical and effective approach to achieving sustainable use of coal resources.
