Time Function Model of Surface Subsidence Based on Inversion Analysis in Deep Soil Strata

As a common geological disaster, surface subsidence caused by mining underground resources has always been a hot and difficult topic in the civil engineering field. Aimed at the shortcomings of existing time function models in predicting mining subsidence in deep soil strata, a more accurate and reasonable time function model, called the composite function model, was established based on an inverted analysis of measured data. The results showed that the composite function model could describe the whole subsidence process of a deep soil surface and agreed well with the measured data. The model parameters were calculated by specific formulas, which improved the reliability of the subsidence prediction results under different mining conditions. The new model provided important guiding significance for preventing subsidence geological disasters and determining the coal mining time under the buildings, the railways, and the water bodies in deep soil strata.
