The superimposed advanced and lateral support pressure will have a greater impact on the advanced support of the working surface roadway. In order to improve the stability of the surrounding rock, the three Hebi mines were used as the subject of the study. At the same time, Universal Distinct Element Code software was used to study the pressure distribution pattern of over-support at the working face.

Recognitionof the mesorectal end may impact the certainty of complete mesorectum inclusion. Further clinical trials are needed toconfirm the preliminary findings.展开更多
