Abstract

The main reason for the frequent occurrence of water accidents on the bottom plate of the working surface near the mine fault in China is that the excavation activities cause the fault to activate and direct the pressure water of the aquifer. The distribution of ground stress fields and plastic regions under the influence of extraction disturbance spree is analyzed by using the flaC3D simulation software FLAC3D simulation software. The results show that the greater the inclination of the fault, the greater the shear stress and the normal stress at the fault level, and the deeper the activation range of the mining fault is larger than that of the shallow one ,and the small inclination positive fault is more likely to produce the fissure between the working surface base plate and the aquifer, and the small inclination positive fault should be left with a wider water-bearing coal column in the actual safety design. Using this software, the evolution of the stress field and plastic zone in the adjacent mining area is a preview, which is of great application value to prevent the surface plate burst water and determine the retention width of the fault waterproof coal column.
