Distribution Law of Principal Stress Difference of Deep Surrounding Rock of Gob-side Entry and Optimum Design of Coal Pillar Width
The optimum design of deep-coal pillar width at the gob-side entry is the key to control surrounding rocks. Existing studies on this issue are based on the distribution law of mining abutment pressure without considering the principal stress difference distribution, which is related to the shear fai...

The optimum design of deep-coal pillar width at the gob-side entry is the key to control surrounding rocks. Existing studies on this issue are based on the distribution law of mining abutment pressure without considering the principal stress difference distribution, which is related to the shear failure of surrounding rock. This study aimed to optimize the design of deep-coal pillar width at gob-side entry based on the distribution law of the principal stress difference. With FLAC 3D numerical simulation, the distribution characteristics of principal stress difference in the side mining stress field of the deep mining face and the distribution laws of the principal stress difference of the surrounding rock at the gob-side entry under different coal pillar width were explored.
