Abstract
For underground coal mining techniques such as gob-side entry retaining (GER) or gob-side entry driving (GED), the stability of yield pillars is paramount. A well-designed yield pillar aims to withstand mining-induced stresses. This study delves into the impact of bi-terminal cable support on the stability of such pillars. Utilizing 30 distinct numerical models, each with varying pillar width/height (w/h) ratios and diverse cable support methodologies, our findings suggest an upward trend in both peak and residual strength in response to heightened support strength. Notably, pillars with a wider configuration exhibited a more pronounced increase in peak strength compared to their narrower counterparts, while the latter showcased a more pronounced residual strength enhancement. Additionally, the residual/peak strength ratio was smaller in narrower pillars and increased with the increase in the cable support strength. In view of the surrounding rock mass’s support stress distribution, numerical modelling was adopted to analyze the underlying support mechanism. The results showed the support stress zones extended farther on both sides of pillars with the decrease in the row spacing, which made the radial stresses rise effectively and ameliorated the coal pillar’s stress state. Finally, with the 8311 operation advancing towards the station, the deformation amplitude of the coal pillar was only 2.28%, and the stability of the coal pillar was effectively maintained.
