There are several good reasons for using backfill in underground stopes, including a reduction of mine wastes on the surface and the improvement of ground stability. Backfilling is now commonly used in underground operations worldwide, so practical methods are required to assess the stress state in stopes, on the surrounding rock mass and on support structures. The majority of existing analytical solutions for the stresses have been developed for vertical openings. In practice, stopes often have inclined walls, and this affects the stress state. Recent numerical studies have shown how the stresses distribution in inclined backfilled stopes is influenced by stope geometry and backfill strength. It has also been shown that existing analytical solutions do not capture the essential tendencies regarding these influence factors. In this paper, a new solution is proposed for the vertical and horizontal stresses in backfilled stopes with inclined walls. This solution takes into account the variation of the stresses along the opening height and width, including the difference between the hanging wall and footwall, for various inclination angles of the walls. Key results are presented and validated using recently performed numerical simulations. 相似文献

The stress state in backfilled mine stopes is an important issue to assess the behavior of the interaction between the backfill and the surroundings or barricades. Most previous arching analyses have considered only the vertical backfilled stopes in both 3D and 2D conditions, and the 3D stress distribution that results from the arching effect in inclined mine stopes remains unclear. In this paper, based on the limit equilibrium theory, a 3D stress solution that is applicable to vertical and inclined backfilled stopes is proposed to further examine the arching effect. The solution is validated against an available centrifuge model by changing the inclination of the model. The proposed analytical solution is consistent with the numerical simulations, and it is suggested that neglecting the wall inclination causes one to underestimate the arching phenomenon. In other words, the vertical stresses at the bottom of the stope can decrease when the wall inclination is considered. Hence, when the stope is assumed in plain strain conditions, both the vertical and horizontal stresses exerted on the barricades are overestimated. 相似文献

Analytical Expression for Vertical Stress within an Inclined Mine Stope with Non-parallel Walls 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Arching is a phenomenon that occurs in many situations in geotechnical engineering. When underground mine stopes are backfilled, a significant fraction of the self-weight of the backfill is carried by the side walls. As a result, the vertical stress at the bottom of the stope is significantly less than its overburden pressure. Few analytical expressions published in the literature can be used to determine the vertical stresses of stope with parallel walls. The objective of this paper is to extend the analytical solution previously developed by the authors to long plane-strain stopes with non-parallel walls with both slopes leaning to the same side. Different combinations of wall inclination are examined using the new analytical expression developed. To validate the analysis, the proposed results are compared with numerical model results. The results show that the proposed analytical expression is capable of estimating the vertical stress within mine stopes when the inclination of the hangingwall to the horizontal (α) is less than that of footwall (β). An important behavioural trend for the stress distribution is observed, where with the same overburden pressure and base width, the stress magnitude experienced by fill material significantly varies depending on the wall inclination. 相似文献

Lateral Variation of the Vertical Stress in Underground Mine Stopes Filled with Granular Backfills 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Marston’s theory and its modifications are widely used to predict the average vertical stress variation with depth within mine stopes. However, this does not model the lateral variation in vertical stress at a particular depth. In this study, a mathematical expression to simulate the vertical stress variation is developed using the experimental shear stress data of granular backfill. The developed model is validated against average vertical stress measured in the experiment. Therefore, the developed model has the advantage of determining both the average vertical stress and its distribution respectively, at a particular depth and a cross sectional area of the mine stope. 相似文献

假定两滑移面相互平行,且与水平面呈一定角度?,对滑移面间土体沿竖向取水平薄层作为微分单元体,通过作用在单元体上的水平力和竖向力的平衡条件,基于土体主应力轴旋转理论,得到考虑土拱效应及倾斜角度的倾斜滑移面间竖向应力的理论公式,及对应不同倾斜角度及滑移面-土摩擦角的土侧压力系数。将得到的理论公式与Handy等公式进行比较,验证了该公式的合理性。研究结果表明：对于无黏性土,竖向应力沿深度先近似线性增大,后增加缓慢并逐渐趋于定值。竖向应力随着倾斜角度和滑移面间距的增大而增大,随滑移面-土摩擦角的增大而减小;土侧压力系数随着滑移面-土摩擦角的增大而增大,而随内摩擦角的增大而减小。 相似文献

Influence of Water Pressure on the Stress State in Stopes with Cohesionless Backfill 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
The rapid increase of backfill use in underground mines requires a better understanding of the interaction between the fill
material and the surrounding rock mass. This is a fairly complex issue as backfill materials are weak compared to the rock
mass. This difference in the mechanical behavior induces a stress transfer along the contact area. Previous work conducted
on backfilled trenches and mining stopes has shown that basic arching theory can be used to estimate earth pressures in narrow,
vertical openings. In this regard, most existing solutions have been developed for dry backfills. However, in many cases,
water is present in mine stopes, so its effect should be assessed. In this paper, the authors present a solution to evaluate
the stress state in submerged or partially submerged backfilled stopes. The proposed analytical solution is validated against
numerical modeling results. 相似文献

Mining backfill is commonly used in underground mines. A critical concern of this practice is to evaluate the pressures and total stresses in backfilled stopes to ensure a safe and economic design of barricades, constructed to retain the backfill. When a slurried backfill is placed in a mine stope, excess pore water pressure (PWP) can instantaneously generate and progressively dissipate. The dissipation of the excess PWP and consolidation lead to the development of effective stresses, which in turn lead to an arching effect in the backfilled stope. Until now, arching effect has been largely considered for stress estimation in dry or submerged backfill. The former corresponds to the final state at the end process of the drainage and consolidation of the backfill with a pervious while the latter with an impervious barricade. However, previous studies have shown that the most critical moment for the stability of barricades is during the stope filling. Therefore, the design of barricades requires a proper estimation of the pressure and total stresses during the filling operation. This in turn needs joint consideration of the arching effect and consolidation of the backfill. In this paper, a new solution is developed to evaluate the pressures and stresses in backfilled stopes during the filling operation of cohesionless backfill by considering the self-weight consolidation and arching effect. The proposed solution is validated by numerical modeling with Plaxis2D. It can thus be used to evaluate the pressures and stresses in backfilled stopes during the stope filling with an impervious barricade. 相似文献

A Three-Dimensional Analysis of the Total and Effective Stresses in Submerged Backfilled Stopes 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
The determination of the stress state in backfilled stopes is an important step for assessing the behaviour of mine openings
and for designing barricades. Most previous analyses have considered only the 2D case (plane strain condition) and neglected
the effect of pore water pressure. In this paper, a three-dimensional solution is proposed for totally or partly submerged
backfill. The new solution gives the normal stresses along the vertical and horizontal axes, with the effect of a surface
load on the backfill. The solution is validated using laboratory experimental results taken from the literature. The good
agreement obtained between the proposed analytical solution and laboratory test results indicates that this new solution provides
a realistic evaluation for both the total and effective stresses in vertical backfilled stopes. 相似文献

Arching is a well known phenomenon, which effects stress developments which were investigated and compared using analytical
and numerical solutions. Marston’s (1930) solution was extended to a generalised 3-dimensional rectangular stope and later modified for square and circular stopes
for comparison with FLAC results. Aubertin et al. (2003) & Li et al. (2003) models were improved significantly by placing the backfill within narrow stopes as lifts or layers in numerical modelling
where the normal stress variation with depth were found to be more realistic. The FLAC results were compared with analytical
solutions which were developed by previous researchers and modified by the authors to evaluate the arching effects in backfilled
placed in narrow and circular stopes. It appeared from the investigation herein that δ = 0.67 ϕ and K = K
o condition gives a very close match with the numerical model solutions obtained from FLAC. Many laboratory tests were conducted
to find out friction angles for four Australian mines, which were between 30 and 49 degrees. 相似文献

This paper reviews the design and application of paste backfill in underground hard rock mines used as ground support for
pillars and walls, to help prevent caving and roof falls, and to enhance pillar recovery for improved productivity. Arching
after stope filling reduces vertical stress and increases horizontal stress distribution within the fill mass. It is therefore
important to determine horizontal stress on stope sidewalls using various predictive models in the design of paste backfill.
Required uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) for paste backfill depends on the intended function, such as vertical roof support,
development opening within the backfill, pillar recovery, ground or pillar support, and working platform. UCS design models
for these functions are given. Laboratory and backfill plant scale designs for paste backfill mix design and optimization
are presented, with emphasis on initial tailings density control to prevent under-proportioning of binder content. Once prepared,
paste backfill is transported (or pumped) and placed underground by pipeline reticulation. The governing elements of paste
backfill transport are rheological factors such as shear yield stress, viscosity, and slump height (consistency). Different
models (analytical, semi-empirical, and empirical) are given to predict the rheological factors of paste backfill (shear yield
stress and viscosity). Following backfill placement underground, self-weight consolidation settlement, internal pressure build-up,
the arching effect, shrinkage, stope volume, and wall convergence against backfill affect mechanical integrity.

Numerical modelling has been used to investigate a variety of problems in underground mining and tunnelling: subsidence induced by longwall coal mining; stresses generated when an open stope is filled cemented backfill and the stability of exposures created during subsequent mining of adjacent stopes; the interaction of two tunnels; and the effects of under-mining a pre-existing tunnel and shaft. In each case, results from nonlinear stress analyses can be used to guide the design of excavations and rock support mechanisms. 相似文献

Inadequate drainage has been attributed as the major cause of failure of several hydraulic fill stopes that have claimed lives.
Therefore it is necessary to be able to predict the pore water pressure developments and flow rates throughout the filling
operation. There are computer programmes that can simulate the hydraulic filling of a mine stope and enable computations of
the pore water pressures, flow rates and hydraulic gradients at any time. This paper presents a simple analytical solution
for estimating the maximum pore water pressure within the stope, flow rate and the hydraulic gradients at the entry and exit.
The proposed solutions are verified against solutions derived from FLAC, a finite difference software, and the agreement is
found to be excellent. A simple equation for the hydraulic gradient at the top of the stope, as a function of the height of
water within the fill, is also presented. 相似文献

Unplanned ore dilution has a direct and large influence on the cost of a stope, and ultimately on the profitability of a mining
operation. This paper presents the results of an examination of factors influencing ore dilution in a blasthole stoping environment.
For the study, a comprehensive database was established, incorporating information related to the design, construction, excavation
and cavity surveys of 172 sequentially mined long hole stope case histories from two orezones. Through a review of the case
studies, it was demonstrated that, in addition to stope dimension, the amount of unplanned dilution differed according to
stope type. Five stope types were identified, based on their position within a tabular blasthole mining sequence. Measured
overbreak varies with stope type, with secondary stopes generating a greater volume of hanging-wall dilution than do primary
stopes. Furthermore, a case study is presented to demonstrate the role cablebolts installed in the stope hanging-wall play
to control ore dilution. The study illustrates relationships between measured hanging-wall overbreak, cablebolt orientation
and stope type. 相似文献

In-situ stress plays a major role with respect to deformation and stability around underground or surficial excavations located at significant depth. Many sedimentary rock masses are more or less horizontally bedded. However, a possibility exists to have one or few inclined rock strata such as dikes in these horizontally bedded formations. It is important to know how the in situ stress changes from a purely horizontally bedded situation to a horizontally bedded rock mass that contains one or few inclined rock strata. This paper presents such an investigation using the largest open-pit metal mine in China—as a case study. This mine has a bedded rock mass with one steeply inclined rock stratum. For the bedded rock mass, the vertical stress was calculated based on the overburden above each lithology. The available in situ stress measurements conducted at the mine were used to estimate the ratios of horizontal to vertical stress. Numerical modeling was performed for the two scenarios: (a) the horizontally bedded system subjected to both the in situ and boundary stresses and (b) the mine lithological system that includes an inclined stiffer (denser) stratum intruding softer horizontally bedded system subjected to only boundary stresses to investigate the influence of an inclined rock stratum on the computed stress field. Thirty points were selected to compute the stresses on six planes of the inclined rock stratum. Due to the discontinuous nature of the geologic system at the interface between the stiffer inclined stratum and softer horizontally bedded system, one principal stress has become normal to the interface plane and the other two have become parallel to the interface plane with all three being perpendicular to each other. Presence of the stiffer inclined rock stratum has given rise to (a) increase in normal stresses up to about 120 % in the inclined rock stratum and (b) new shear stresses approximately in the range ?10.0 to 15.0 MPa. This means, because most of the rock masses are not purely horizontally bedded, estimation of in situ stress through measurements as well as application of in situ stress in numerical modeling associated with underground or surficial excavations located at significant depth is a difficult exercise. A better way to estimate the in situ stresses for complex geologic systems may be through application of appropriate boundary stresses to the geologic system in a numerical model. 相似文献

The increasing use of backfill in underground mines requires a proper evaluation of the stress state in and around the filled openings. This is, however, a relatively complex issue due, in part, to the large contrast in strength and stiffness between the backfill material and surrounding rock mass. In recent years, it has been shown that arching theory, based on limit equilibrium analysis, can be used to estimate the stress distribution in backfilled stopes. Nonetheless, many simplifications are involved in such analytical solutions and this affects the precision and significance of the calculated results. In this paper, a previously developed solution is enhanced by introducing the combined effects of non-uniform vertical stress distribution and positive pore water pressure. This leads to a more representative analytical solution, as demonstrated by successful comparisons with numerical simulations. The results indicate that the proposed solution can be used to estimate the effective and total stress state in submerged or partially submerged backfilled stopes with a simple geometry. 相似文献

Borehole stress monitoring analysis on advanced abutment pressure induced by Longwall Mining 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The paper presented the research on the dynamic advanced abutment stress induced by longwall mining with borehole stress meters on mining side coal mass. Twenty vibrating wire borehole stress meters were installed into the extracting coal mass wall of a first mining roadway of 910 m depth in Zhuji Coal Mine, China, and were used to monitor dynamic changes in vertical and horizontal stresses. Three months of continuous monitoring and further analysis showed that the impacting distance of advanced abutment stress induced by mining in the strike of the working face along its central axis was the farthest, greater than 250 m (the face length is 220 m); it gradually decreased in the radial direction of the face from its central axis outward; the pressure peak was located within 24 m in the front of the mining coal wall; non-synchronous caving of the layered mudstone roof at the stope occurred. Comparison between vertical and horizontal stress increments indicated that the horizontal stress was much smaller than the vertical stress in the coal mass of mining side, while the latter’s magnitude determined the drastic degree of mine pressure manifestation. The study has been applied to determine the advanced support length of the working face and further provide a reliable basis to forecast such dynamic disasters as rock burst, coal and gas outburst, etc., as well as to design the asymmetric supports on both sides of a gateway. 相似文献

In this study, the vertical overburden pressure in the vicinity of an inclined circular underground opening is defined by relation to the geometry of the medium. The stresses around the opening consisting of six components are induced by geostatic field stress. In this regard, the inclined circular opening i.e. shaft changes the original stress condition and an interrupted region develops beneath it. Three zones are defined on a plane which is perpendicular to the axis of shaft. The mathematical expressions of vertical overburden stresses at these three zones are established, respectively. The example given in appendix demonstrates the variation of radial and tangential stresses around the inclined shaft. It is seen that the stress distributions in the third zone, which includes the interrupted region, beneith the shaft display different configurations than that of those obtained by undisturbed field stresses. In the interrupted region the stresses around the shaft linearly grow up due to increasing overburden pressure by radial distance from the periphery of the shaft. At the boundary of interrupted region stresses jump to the original values induced by field stresses. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献
