Understanding the interaction between supports and the surrounding rock is necessary for effective rockburst control. In this study, the squeezing behavior of the surrounding rock is analyzed in rockburst roadways, and a mechanical model of rockbursts is established considering the dynamic support stress, thus deriving formulas and providing characteristic curves for describing the interaction between the support and surrounding rock. Design principles and parameters of supports for rockburst control are proposed. The results show that only when the geostress magnitude exceeds a critical value can it drive the formation of rockburst conditions. The main factors influencing the convergence response and rockburst occurrence around roadways are geostress, rock brittleness, uniaxial compressive strength, and roadway excavation size. Roadway support devices can play a role in controlling rockburst by suppressing the squeezing evolution of the surrounding rock towards instability points of rockburst. Further, the higher the strength and the longer the impact stroke of support devices with constant resistance, the more easily multiple balance points can be formed with the surrounding rock to control rockburst occurrence. Supports with long impact stroke allow adaptation to varying geostress levels around the roadway, aiding in rockburst control. The results offer a quantitative method for designing support systems for rockburst-prone roadways. The design criterion of supports is determined by the intersection between the convergence curve of the surrounding rock and the squeezing deformation curve of the support devices.展开更多

The prediction of rockbursts is a fundamental aspect of mitigating or even eliminating rockburst hazards. To address the shortcomings of the current rockburst prediction models, which have a limited number of samples and rely on manual test results as the majority of their input features, this paper proposes rockburst prediction models based on multi-featured drilling parameters of rock drilling jumbo. Firstly, four original drilling parameters, namely hammer pressure (Ph), feed pressure (Pf), rotation pressure (Pr), and feed speed (VP), together with the rockburst grades, were collected from 1093 rockburst cases. Then, a feature expansion investigation was performed based on the four original drilling parameters to establish a drilling parameter feature system and a rockburst prediction database containing 42 features. Furthermore, rockburst prediction models based on multi-featured drilling parameters were developed using the extreme tree (ET) algorithm and Bayesian optimization. The models take drilling parameters as input parameters and rockburst grades as output parameters. The effects of Bayesian optimization and the number of drilling parameter features on the model performance were analyzed using the accuracy, precision, recall and F1 value of the prediction set as the model performance evaluation indices. The results show that the Bayesian optimized model with 42 drilling parameter features as inputs performs best, with an accuracy of 91.89%. Finally, the reliability of the models was validated through field tests.展开更多

文摘Rockbursts, which mainly affect mining roadways, are dynamic disasters arising from the surrounding rock under high stress. Understanding the interaction between supports and the surrounding rock is necessary for effective rockburst control. In this study, the squeezing behavior of the surrounding rock is analyzed in rockburst roadways, and a mechanical model of rockbursts is established considering the dynamic support stress, thus deriving formulas and providing characteristic curves for describing the interaction between the support and surrounding rock. Design principles and parameters of supports for rockburst control are proposed. The results show that only when the geostress magnitude exceeds a critical value can it drive the formation of rockburst conditions. The main factors influencing the convergence response and rockburst occurrence around roadways are geostress, rock brittleness, uniaxial compressive strength, and roadway excavation size. Roadway support devices can play a role in controlling rockburst by suppressing the squeezing evolution of the surrounding rock towards instability points of rockburst. Further, the higher the strength and the longer the impact stroke of support devices with constant resistance, the more easily multiple balance points can be formed with the surrounding rock to control rockburst occurrence. Supports with long impact stroke allow adaptation to varying geostress levels around the roadway, aiding in rockburst control. The results offer a quantitative method for designing support systems for rockburst-prone roadways. The design criterion of supports is determined by the intersection between the convergence curve of the surrounding rock and the squeezing deformation curve of the support devices.

文摘The principal stresses will increase or decrease during mining,leading to variations in surrounding rock strength and subsequently an influence on the risk of rockbursts.To address this issue,this study conducted theoretical analysis,numerical simulation,and field monitoring.A rockburst risk analysis method that integrates dynamic changes in the stress and strength of surrounding rock was proposed and verified in the field.The dynamic changes in maximum(σ_(1))and minimum(σ_(3))principal stresses are represented by the σ_(1) and σ_(3) differentials,respectively.The difference in principal stress differential(DPSD),defined as the difference between σ_(1) and σ_(3),was introduced as a novel indicator for rockburst risk analysis.The findings of this study demonstrate a positive correlation between increases in DPSD and heightened risks of rockbursts,as evidenced by an increase in both the frequency of rockbursts and the occurrence of large-energy microseismic events.Conversely,a decrease in DPSD is associated with a reduction in risk.Specifically,in the W1123 panel of a coal mine susceptible to rockbursts,areas exhibiting higher DPSD values experienced more frequent and severe rockbursts.The DPSD-based analysis aligned well with the observed rockburst occurrences.Subsequent optimization of rockburst prevention measures in areas with elevated DPSD led to a reduction in DPSD.Following these adjustments,the W1123 panel predominantly experienced low-energy microseismic events,with a significant decrease in large-energy microseismic events and no further rockbursts.The DPSD analysis is a valuable tool for evaluating rockburst risk and aiding in prevention,which is of great significance for disaster prevention.

文摘To investigate the effect of saturation on the storage-dissipation properties and failure characteristics of red sandstone,as well as the energy mechanism of rockburst prevention by water,a series of uniaxial compression and uniaxial loading–unloading tests were conducted under five saturation levels.The effect of saturation on the mechanical properties and elastic energy density was analyzed,and a method for obtaining peak energy density was proposed.The effect of saturation on the energy evolution was examined,and the energy mechanism of water in preventing rockburst was revealed.The results indicate that an increase in saturation of red sandstone decreases the input energy density,elastic energy density,dissipated energy density,peak strength and peak strain;the compaction phase of the stress–strain curve becomes shorter;the failure mode transitions from X-conjugate oblique shear to single oblique shear;the variation in the debris ejection trajectory is as follows:radiation→X-ray→oblique upward parabola→horizontal parabola→oblique downward parabola;the degree of failure intensity and fragmentation is decreased gradually.Elastic energy density is interconnected with both saturation and stress but independent of the loading path.Saturation exhibits a dual effect on the energy storage property,i.e.,increasing saturation increases the energy storage efficiency and reduces the energy storage capacity.The ratio of peak elastic energy density to peak input energy density remains constant irrespective of saturation levels.Water prevents rockburst by decreasing the energy storage capacity of surrounding rock,alleviating the stress of surrounding rock to reduce energy storage,and elevating the energy release threshold of high-energy surrounding rock.The findings of this study contribute to understanding the effect of water on rock failure from an energy perspective,as well as provide theoretical guidance for rockburst prevention by water in deep tunnels.

文摘A complex geological environment with faults can be encountered in the process of coal mining.Fault activation can cause instantaneous structure slipping,releasing a significant amount of elastic strain energy during underground coal mining.This would trigger strong rockburst disasters.To understand the occurrence of fault-slip induced rockbursts,we developed a physical model test system for fault-slip induced rockbursts in coal mine drifts.The boundary energy storage(BES)loading apparatus and bottom rapid retraction(BRR)apparatus are designed to realize energy compensation and continuous boundary stress transfer of the surrounding rocks for instantaneous fault slip,as well as to provide space for the potential fault slip.Taking the typical fault-slip induced rockburst in the Xinjulong Coal Mine,China,as the background,we conducted a model test using the test system.The deformation and stress in the rock surrounding the drift and the support unit force during fault slip are analyzed.The deformation and failure characteristics and dynamic responses of drifts under fault-slip induced rockbursts are obtained.The test results illustrate the rationality and effectiveness of the test system.Finally,corresponding recommendations and prospects are proposed based on our findings.

文摘To examine the effect of bedding angle upon burst proneness in terms of energy,phyllites with seven various bedding angles are selected for conventional uniaxial compression and single-cyclic loading eunloading uniaxial compression tests.The ejection and failure during compression process of phyllites are monitored in real-time by high-speed camera system.The results demonstrate that the phyllites with different bedding angles all consistently follow the linear energy storage and dissipation(LESD)law during compression.The ultimate energy storage of phyllites with varying bedding angles can be calculated precisely via using the LESD law.Based on this,four kinds of energy-based rockburst indices are applied to quantitatively assess the burst proneness for phyllites.Combined with the recorded images of high-speed camera system,ejection distance,and mass of rock fragments and powder,the burst proneness for phyllites with various bedding angles is qualitatively evaluated adopting the far-field ejection mass ratio.Next,burst proneness of anisotropic phyllites is assessed quantitatively and qualitatively.It is found that phyllites with bedding angles of 0°,15°,and 90°have a high burst proneness,and that with bedding angle of 30°has a medium burst proneness,whereas the ones with bedding angles of 45°,60°,and 75°have a low burst proneness.Finally,the published experimental data of shale and sandstone specimens with different bedding angles are extracted,and it is preliminarily verified that the bedding angle does not change the LESD law of rocks.

文摘Rockburst precursors are critical for disaster warning,yet the complexity of rockburst has hindered the identification of a unified precursor.Furthermore,the influence of loading rates(LRs)on acoustic emission(AE)precursors in different rock types remains poorly understood.This study investigates the AE characteristics and early warning times of rockburst in slate and mica-schist under four LRs(0.05,0.15,0.25,and 0.5 MPa/s)using true triaxial unloading tests.The micro-crack state of the samples was evaluated using entropy,while critical slowing down(CSD)theory was applied to interpret AE precursors.The results reveal that as the LR increases,the rockburst stress of both rocks initially rises and then declines,with mica-schist exhibiting more severe damage and a higher dominance of tensile cracks.Notably,identifying rockburst precursors in mica-schist proved more challenging compared to slate.Among the methods tested,AE amplitude variance outperformed entropy in precursor identification.Additionally,the rockburst early warning time was found to be negatively correlated with the LR,with mica-schist consistently showing shorter warning times than slate.The CSD-derived precursor,due to its enhanced sensitivity,is recommended for early warning systems.These findings provide new insights into the role of LRs in rockburst dynamics and offer practical guidance for improving precursor identification and disaster mitigation strategies.

文摘Axial chain rockbursts(ACRs)repeatedly occur in deep tunnels during drilling and blasting methodology(D&B)within locked-in stress zones,severely hindering construction progress.In extremely cases,ACRs can persist for 7−10 d and affect areas exceeding 20 m along tunnel axis.Through integrated geological investigations and microseismic(MS)monitoring,the geological characteristics,MS activity patterns,and formation mechanisms of ACRs were analyzed.In tectonically active regions,locked-in stress zones arise from interactions between multiple structural planes.Blasting dynamic disturbances during tunnel excavation in these zones trigger early slippage along structural planes and fractures in the surrounding rock,with MS events developing ahead of the working face.High-energy MS events dominate during the development and occurrence stages of ACRs,extending 20−30 m(3−4 tunnel diameters)ahead of the working face.Following the ACRs,low-energy MS events primarily occur behind the working face.Tensile fracturing is the predominant failure mode during ACRs.Shear and mixed fractures primarily occur within the ACRs zone during the intra-ACR phase.Monitoring MS event locations ahead of the working face provides a reliable approach for prewarning potential ACR-prone zones.
文摘Pre-injection is a technique that involves injecting grout materials into the ground prior to excavation,with the aim of stabilizing the surrounding rock mass.This paper introduces an analytical closed-form model for determining the ground reaction curve of tunnels in rock masses exhibiting elastic-brittleplastic behavior and adhering to the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion.The model incorporates the reinforced region created by the pre-injection method.When the rock mass is reinforced through preinjection,plastic regions can form independently in both the natural and injected rock masses.This leads to six distinct modes of the problem.The analytical model presented in this paper considers three possible scenarios for the development of plastic regions.Each scenario comprises four stages,with each stage representing a different mode of the problem.While injecting the rock mass can enhance its strength and stiffness,it may also increase the brittleness of the injected rock mass and create stress concentrations within it,particularly when brittle grouts are used.As a result,this can elevate the risk of rockburst due to unstable failure.The results obtained from the model demonstrate that ductile grout performs exceptionally well in controlling tunnel convergence in rock masses,as it accommodates deformation without sudden failure,even in squeezing rock mass conditions.Conversely,the use of brittle grouts should be approached with caution,particularly in squeezing rock masses,due to their susceptibility to rockburst incidents.

文摘With the increasing development of deepburied engineering projects,rockburst disasters have become a frequent concern.Studies have indicated that tunnel diameter is a critical factor influencing the occurrence of rockbursts.To investigate the influence of tunnel diameter on the deformation and failure characteristics of surrounding rock,large-sized rocklike gypsum specimens were tested using a selfdeveloped true triaxial rockburst loading system containing circular tunnels with three different diameters(D=0.07 m,0.11 m,and 0.15 m).Acoustic emission monitoring,together with a miniature intelligent camera,was employed to analyze the entire process,focusing on macroscopic failure patterns,fragment characteristics,and underlying failure mechanisms.In addition,theoretical analyses were carried out and combined with numerical simulations to investigate the differences in energy evolution associated with rockburst physical models.The results indicate that:(1)The rockburst process with different tunnel diameters consistently evolved through three distinct stages—initial particle ejection,crack propagation accompanied by flake spalling,and,finally,fragment ejection leading to the formation of a‘V'-shaped notch.(2)Increasing tunnel diameter reduces rockburst failure load while increasing surrounding rock damage extent,total mass and average size of ejected fragments.Additionally,shear failure proportion decreases with tensile failure becoming increasingly dominant.(3)Larger tunnel diameters reduce the attenuation rate of elastic strain energy,thereby expanding the zone of elastic strain energy accumulation and disturbance and creating conditions for larger volume rockburst.(4)Larger tunnel diameters result in a smaller principal stress ratio at equivalent distances in the surrounding rock,indicating a higher likelihood of tensile failure.(5)Numerical analyses further reveal that larger tunnel diameters reduce the maximum elastic strain energy density around the tunnel,lowering the energy released per unit volume of rockburst fragments and their ejection velocities.However,both the total failure volume and overall energy release from rockburst increase.Model experiments with different tunnel diameters are of great significance for optimizing engineering design and parameter selection,as well as guiding tunnel construction under complex geological conditions.

文摘In this study,we employed Bayesian inversion coupled with the summation-by-parts and simultaneousapproximation-term(SBP-SAT)forward simulation method to elucidate the mechanisms behind mininginduced seismic events caused by fault slip and their potential effects on rockbursts.Through Bayesian inversion,it is determined that the sources near fault FQ14 have a significant shear component.Additionally,we analyzed the stress and displacement fields of high-energy events,along with the hypocenter distribution of aftershocks,which aided in identifying the slip direction of the critically stressed fault FQ14.We also performed forward modeling to capture the complex dynamics of fault slip under varying friction laws and shear fracture modes.The selection of specific friction laws for fault slip models was based on their ability to accurately replicate observed slip behavior under various external loading conditions,thereby enhancing the applicability of our findings.Our results suggest that the slip behavior of fault FQ14 can be effectively understood by comparing different scenarios.

文摘Deeply buried mountain tunnels are often exposed to the risk of rock bursts,which always cause serious damage to the supporting structures and threaten the safety of the engineers.Due to the limited data available,a suitable approach to predict the rockburst tendency at the preliminary stage becomes very important.In this study,an integrated methodology combining 3D initial stress inversion and rockburst tendency prediction was developed and subsequently applied to a case study of the Sangzhuling Tunnel on the Sichuan–Tibet Railway.The numerical modelling involved inverting the initial stress field using a multiple linear regression method.The tunnel excavation was simulated separately by FDM and DEM,based on a stress boundary condition from the inverted stress field.The comparative analysis demonstrates that the rockburst ratio calculated using DEM(76.70%)exhibits a slight increase compared to FDM(75.38%),and the rockburst location is consistent with the actual situation.This suggests that DEM is more suitable for simulating the stress redistribution during excavation in a jointed rock mass.The numerical simulation combined with the deviatoric stress approach effectively predicts rockburst tendency,meeting the engineering requirements.Despite its limitations,numerical simulation remains a reliable method for predicting rock bursts.

文摘To investigate the influence of different joint conditions on the rockburst of a circular tunnel,a true-triaxial test of rockburst with a single set of joint conditions was conducted.The rockburst incubation and evolution characteristics and acoustic emission evolution characteristics under different joint directions and joint dip angles were studied.The Weibull function was used to fit rockburst debris with different particle sizes and a single set of joints to obtain statistical results.The experimental results revealed that shear fracture rockburst occurred in samples with joints aligned with the tunnel strike as well as joints with inclination angles of 45°,60°,and 90°.Slab buckling–shear fracture rockburst was more likely to occur in samples with inclination angles of 0°and 30°.Slab buckling–shear fracture rockburst occurred in samples with joints crossing the tunnel strike as well as in samples with joints with inclination angles of 0°,30°,45°,60°,and 90°.The location of the rockburst pit was influenced by the joint inclination angle when the joints aligned with the tunnel strike.In contrast,when the joints crossed the tunnel strike,the location of the rockburst pit was independent of the joint inclination angle.The cumulative absolute energy of acoustic emission(AE)exhibited an overall upward trend with the increase in joint dip angle.The cumulative absolute energy of the AE of the jointed samples was greater than that of intact samples(without joints).Loading reached the rockburst stage in the samples with joints aligned with the tunnel strike and dip angles of 45°,60°,and 90°.Moreover,the peak value of AE cumulative absolute energy was the highest.These results can elucidate the evolution mechanism of rockburst in the surrounding rock of circular tunnels with a single set of joints in deep underground engineering.

文摘As one of the most serious geological disasters in deep underground engineering,rockburst has caused a large number of casualties.However,because of the complex relationship between the inducing factors and rockburst intensity,the problem of rockburst intensity prediction has not been well solved until now.In this study,we collect 292 sets of rockburst data including eight parameters,such as the maximum tangential stress of the surrounding rock σ_(θ),the uniaxial compressive strength of the rockσc,the uniaxial tensile strength of the rock σ_(t),and the strain energy storage index W_(et),etc.from more than 20 underground projects as training sets and establish two new rockburst prediction models based on the kernel extreme learning machine(KELM)combined with the genetic algorithm(KELM-GA)and cross-entropy method(KELM-CEM).To further verify the effect of the two models,ten sets of rockburst data from Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station are selected for analysis and the results show that new models are more accurate compared with five traditional empirical criteria,especially the model based on KELM-CEM which has the accuracy rate of 90%.Meanwhile,the results of 10 consecutive runs of the model based on KELM-CEM are almost the same,meaning that the model has good stability and reliability for engineering applications.

文摘The suddenness, uncertainty, and randomness of rockbursts directly affect the safety of tunnel construction. The prediction of rockbursts is a fundamental aspect of mitigating or even eliminating rockburst hazards. To address the shortcomings of the current rockburst prediction models, which have a limited number of samples and rely on manual test results as the majority of their input features, this paper proposes rockburst prediction models based on multi-featured drilling parameters of rock drilling jumbo. Firstly, four original drilling parameters, namely hammer pressure (Ph), feed pressure (Pf), rotation pressure (Pr), and feed speed (VP), together with the rockburst grades, were collected from 1093 rockburst cases. Then, a feature expansion investigation was performed based on the four original drilling parameters to establish a drilling parameter feature system and a rockburst prediction database containing 42 features. Furthermore, rockburst prediction models based on multi-featured drilling parameters were developed using the extreme tree (ET) algorithm and Bayesian optimization. The models take drilling parameters as input parameters and rockburst grades as output parameters. The effects of Bayesian optimization and the number of drilling parameter features on the model performance were analyzed using the accuracy, precision, recall and F1 value of the prediction set as the model performance evaluation indices. The results show that the Bayesian optimized model with 42 drilling parameter features as inputs performs best, with an accuracy of 91.89%. Finally, the reliability of the models was validated through field tests.

文摘The excavation of deep tunnels crossing faults is highly prone to triggering rockburst disasters,which has become a significant engineering issue.In this study,taking the fault-slip rockbursts from a deep tunnel in southwestern China as the engineering prototype,large-scale three-dimensional(3D)physical model tests were conducted on a 3D-printed complex geological model containing two faults.Based on the selfdeveloped 3D loading system and excavation device,the macroscopic failure of fault-slip rockbursts was simulated indoors.The stress,strain,and fracturing characteristics of the surrounding rock near the two faults were systematically evaluated during excavation and multistage loading.The test results effectively revealed the evolution and triggering mechanism of fault-slip rockbursts.After the excavation of a highstress tunnel,stress readjustment occurred.Owing to the presence of these two faults,stress continued to accumulate in the rock mass between them,leading to the accumulation of fractures.When the shear stress on a fault surface exceeded its shear strength,sudden fault slip and dislocation occurred,thus triggering rockbursts.Rockbursts occurred twice in the vault between the two faults,showing obvious intermittent characteristics.The rockburst pit was controlled by two faults.When the faults remained stable,tensile failure predominated in the surrounding rock.However,when the fault slip was triggered,shear failure in the surrounding rock increased.These findings provide valuable insights for enhancing the comprehension of fault-slip rockbursts.

文摘Structure-type rockbursts frequently occur in deep tunnels,with structural planes and stress conditions being critical factors in their formation.In this study,we utilized specially developed analogous materials that exhibit the high brittleness and strength characteristics of deep hard rock to construct physical models representing different types of structural planes,including composite,exposed,non-exposed,and throughgoing structural planes.Physical simulation experiments were conducted on structuretype rockbursts in deep horseshoe-shaped tunnels,focusing on strain differentiation characteristics,critical triggering conditions,critical crack opening displacement,the incubation process,the reduction effects of structural planes on failure intensity,and formation mechanisms.These experiments were complemented by acoustic and optical monitoring,as well as discrete element numerical simulations,to provide a comprehensive analysis.The results revealed that the most significant strain heterogeneity in the surrounding rock occurs at the tip of the structural plane along the tunnel's minimum principal stress direction,driven by the combined effects of tensile and shear forces.We quantitatively determined the critical stress and strain conditions for structure-type rockbursts and evaluated the intensity of rockbursts induced by different structural planes using critical crack opening displacement(COD)values,the uniformity coefficient,and the curvature coefficient.Analysis of acoustic emission events,including frequency,amplitude,and b-value,indicated that the macro-fracture process is governed by both the principal stress differential and the characteristics of the structural plane.Furthermore,using the bearing capacity reduction coefficient,we found that exposed structural planes have the most significant weakening effect on rock mass strength,followed by non-exposed and throughgoing structural planes.The analysis of average frequency(AF)and rise angle(RA)parameters revealed a close correlation between the failure modes of structure-type rockbursts,the rock mass structure,and the stress levels.These findings provide critical theoretical support for the prediction and prevention of structure-type rockburst disasters.

文摘Deep hole pre-cracking blasting(DHPB)technology is the preferred means of preventing and controlling rockburst induced by hard-thick rock layers in coal mines.When DHPB is applied to hard-thick rock layers,the insufficient knowledge about the crack extension scale under different rock properties and blasting parameters may result in undesirable pressure relief.Therefore,LS-DYNA was adopted to analyse the crack extension characteristics under the combined effect of rock tensile strength,explosive density,blasthole spacing,and decoupled coefficient.The Holmquist–Johnson–Cook model(HJC),verified by the results of blasting experiment and numerical simulation in literature,was used to characterise coal-bearing rocks.Numerical analysis was conducted to study the blasting crack extension and fractal damage for rock tensile strength,explosive densities,blasthole spacing,and decoupled coefficients.The results show that the tensile strength of rock is the key factor for blasting design.The fractal damage caused by blasting increases when the tensile strength of rock decreases.For rocks with lower tensile strength,more blasting energy is consumed by the increasing damage area in the crushed zone.Higher explosive density can promote the development of blasting cracks and increase fractal damage,but the increasing range of the crushed zone also wastes a large amount of energy.As the blasthole spacing increases,the fractal damage decreases,and the crack extension scale in the fractured zone first increases and then decreases,and eventually remains almost unchanged.An optimum interval exists for the decoupled coefficient,and the full utilization of explosive energy within the interval leads to penetrating blast cracks and smaller crushed zones.Based on the simulation results,the optimal blasting parameters for coarse sandstone were validated in the field practice.Monitoring data show that the optimized blasting significantly reduces the risk of rockburst.

文摘High-temperature rockbursts pose a critical challenge in deep underground engineering and resource exploitation.Consequently,predicting high-geothermal rockbursts has become a key scientific objective.In this paper,a genetic projection pursuit algorithm(GPPA)is proposed for the prediction of high-geothermal rockbursts by introducing the coefficient K,and utilizing multiple empirical criteria(Wet index,σc/σt,σθ/σc,andσ1/σc).Four empirical criteria were statistically analyzed for 147 sets of rockburst cases,yielding accuracies of 40%,39%,46%and 29%,respectively.After the implantation of optimal segmentation,there was an enhancement in accuracy by 12%,9%,6%,and 19%,respectively.Theσθ/σc criterion exhibited superior performance,with a baseline accuracy of 46%.The GPPA model was tested and validated using four characteristic parameters(Wet index,σc/σt,σθ/σc,andσ1/σc)as inputs,revealing that the error ranged between 0.07 and 0.41.Successful validation was performed in the Sangzhuling Tunnel(four slight rockbursts)and Qirehataer Diversion Tunnel(one moderate rockburst),which matched field observations.Consequently,the proposed model offers guidance for predicting high-geothermal rockburst hazards.

文摘To evaluate the accuracy of rockburst tendency classification in coal-bearing sandstone strata,this study conducted uniaxial compression loading and unloading tests on sandstone samples with four distinct grain sizes.The tests involved loading the samples to 60%,70%,and 80%of their uniaxial compressive strength,followed by unloading and reloading until failure.Key parameters such as the elastic energy index and linear elasticity criteria were derived from these tests.Additionally,rock fragments were collected to calculate their initial ejection kinetic energy,serving as a measure of rockburst tendency.The classification of rockburst tendency was conducted using grading methods based on burst energy index(WET),pre-peak stored elastic energy(PES)and experimental observations.Multi-class classification and regression analyses were applied to machine learning models using experimental data to predict rockburst tendency levels.A comparative analysis of models from two libraries revealed that the Random Forest model achieved the highest accuracy in classification,while the Ada Boost Regressor model excelled in regression predictions.This study highlights that on a laboratory scale,integrating ejection kinetic energy with the unloading ratio,failure load,W_(ET)and PES through machine learning offers a highly accurate and reliable approach for determining rockburst tendency levels.

文摘To review the rockburst proneness(or tendency)criteria of rock materials and compare the judgment accuracy of them,twenty criteria were summarized,and their judgment accuracy was evaluated and compared based on the laboratory tests on fourteen types of rocks.This study begins firstly by introducing the twenty rockburst proneness criteria,and their origins,definitions,calculation methods and grading standards were summarized in detail.Subsequently,to evaluate and compare the judgment accuracy of the twenty criteria,a series of laboratory tests were carried out on fourteen types of rocks,and the rockburst proneness judgment results of the twenty criteria for the fourteen types of rocks were obtained accordingly.Moreover,to provide a unified basis for the judgment accuracy evaluation of above criteria,a classification standard(obtained according to the actual failure results and phenomena of rock specimen)of rockburst proneness in laboratory tests was introduced.The judgment results of the twenty criteria were compared with the judgment results of this classification standard.The results show that the judgment results of the criterion based on residual elastic energy(REE)index are completely consistent with the actual rockburst proneness,and the other criteria have some inconsistent situations more or less.Moreover,the REE index is based on the linear energy storage law and defined in form of a difference value and considered the whole failure process,and these superior characteristics ensure its accuracy.It is believed that the criterion based on REE index is comparatively more accurate and scientific than other criteria,and it can be recommended to be applied to judge the rockburst proneness of rock materials.
