With the increase of mining depth and strength, the evolution of bolt axial force is increasingly becoming important for ensuring the reliability and safety of support. To improve the problem of the existing coal mine roadway pressure-monitoring method, whereby it is difficult to continuously monitor the axial force of the bolt over a long period of time, a full rod fiber bragg grating (FBG) force-measuring bolt and system were designed based on the principle of fiber grating sensing. It was found that a trapezoidal groove is a relatively better groove. The linearity between the center wavelength offset of the fiber grating and the axial force was more than 0.99, and the conversion formula between the axial force of the bolt rod and the wavelength change of the fiber grating were obtained. The real-time monitoring revealed that the axial force of the bolt obviously changed before and after compression. The axial force distribution curve can be divided into the stable zone, growth zone, and peak zone. The influence of the roadway abutment pressure was approximately 130 m ahead of the working face, and the peak area was within the 25–35 m range of the advance working face. The axial force of the bolt rod at the end of the anchorage linearly increased with the tail end of the bolt, the axial force of the free segment was the largest, and the overall stress was essentially the same. The application results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the FBG full-length force bolt.

In view of the problems of composite roof coal roadway under multiple dynamic pressure disturbances such as strong stratification, large deformation of the roadway surrounding rock, and poor safety and reliability, this paper analyzed the deformation and instability characteristics of composite roof coal roadway under different influencing factors using numerical simulation and expounded the stress distribution pattern of composite roof coal roadway under multiple dynamic pressure disturbances. The geological conditions of gas control roadway in the 22301 working face of Tunlan coal mine are taken as examples, and this study is carried out based on the analysis of roof instability conditions of composite roof coal roadway. The progressive crack development characteristics in composite roof coal roadway and the instability failure mode of surrounding rock under multiple dynamic pressure disturbances were revealed, and the control mechanism and support scheme were put forward. According to the result, it is difficult to form a stable bearing rock beam due to the occurrence characteristics of the weak interlayer of the composite roof. The deflection of the roadway roof and the extent of the plastic zone are negatively correlated with the distance from the soft rock layer to the roadway but positively correlated with the thickness of the soft rock layer. As the lateral pressure coefficient increases, the plastic zone of the roadway surrounding rock first decreases and then increases. With the increasing influence of dynamic pressure, the coal roadway with composite roof suffers from greater damage under the superposition of high ground stress, lateral abutment pressure, and advance abutment pressure, which is characterized by significant zonal failure of the roof and asymmetric failure of surrounding rock. The control method of high-strength thick can construct the thick layer stable rock beam of the roof and equivalent support of the side, realizing continuous stress transfer and geometrically coordinated deformation. The support scheme was finally applied to the on-site industrial test, and the mine pressure monitoring results showed that the deformation of the roadway surrounding rock was effectively controlled under the new support scheme.

A floor rock roadway under an oblique straddle working face is a typical dynamic pressure roadway. Under the complex disturbance of excavation engineering works, the roadway often undergoes stress concentration and severe deformation and damage. To solve the problem of surrounding rock stability control for this roadway type, this study considered the East Forth main transport roadway in the floor strata of the 1762(3) working face of the Pansan coal mine. In situ ground pressure monitoring and numerical simulation calculation using the FLAC2D software were carried out. The influence laws of the surrounding rock lithology, the vertical and horizontal distance between the roadway and overlying working face, the positional relationship between the roadway and the overlying working face, and the support form and strength of the rock surrounding an oblique straddle roadway were obtained. Within the range of mining influence, the properties of the rock surrounding the roof and floor were very different, and the deformation of the rock surrounding the two sides exhibited regional difference. The influence range of the mining working face on the rock floor of the roadway was approximately 30–40 m, and that of horizontal mining was approximately 50–60 m. The mining influence on the rock surrounding the side roadway of the working face is large, but the mining influence on the roadway below is small. Using FLAC2D, the stress and displacement characteristics of the rock surrounding the obliquely straddle roadway were compared and analyzed when the bolt support, combined bolt and shed support, and bolt–shotcreting–grouting support were adopted, the proposed support scheme of bolting and shotcreting was successfully applied. The deformation of the rock surrounding the roadway was satisfactorily controlled, and the results were useful as a reference for similar roadway maintenance projects.

Under high dynamic load, roadway deformation and failure may occur, posing great challenges. As for now, few studies have been carried out on the impacts of various factors on the deformation of roadway surrounding rocks under high dynamic load, not to mention those on intelligent prediction of the deformation and failure laws. This paper fills these research gaps by studying the deformation and failure characteristics of roadway surrounding rocks and the intelligent prediction method under high dynamic load. The finite difference software Flac3D was used to analyze the influences of roadway buried depth, lithology, and side pressure coefficient on the stability of surrounding rocks and a model was constructed for deformation prediction under high dynamic load. Finally, the influence of various factors on the deformation and their weight was obtained and the deformation can be predicted in line with the BP neural network prediction theory. The results show that the prediction effect is good, with high accuracy.

The size and distribution of pores in rocks are closely related to their physical and mechanical properties. It is important to study the structure and distribution of pore size inside the rock to assess the risk of damage to a given rock volume. These characteristics were studied under different pressures, pore diameters, and pore throat size distribution laws using a UTM5540 electronic universal testing machine, magnetic resonance imaging scanning, and low field nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy with cyclic loading on yellow sandstone. We found the following. (1) Under 0–10 MPa load, the peaks of the sandstone spectrum move left as load increases, and the porosity of the sandstone decreases. The peak area of the middle relaxation spectrum increases as pressure increases from 10 to 20 MPa, and a peak for the long relaxation time spectrum appears. (2) Under 0–10 MPa load, the spectral peak associated with a large pore moves left and decreases in area as pressure increases. Under 10–20 MPa load, the large-pore spectral peak moves right and increases in area as pressure increases. (3) Under the applied 0–10 MPa load, the porosity of water-saturated sandstone gradually decreases, and the sandstone NMR images darken with increasing load. The porosity of saturated sandstone gradually increases under 10–20 MPa pressure, and its NMR image brightens. (4) The number of small pore throats increases with increasing load, but the number of large- and medium-sized pore throats decreases. From 0 to 15 MPa, crack (>1 micron) abundance decreases, and fractures are generated by compaction under a 20 MPa load. The pore interconnectivity is enhanced, as are the number and size of pores in the sandstone. With continuing increasing pressure, the numbers of pores and penetration of cracks increase, which damages the sandstone.
