The field case simulated in the experiment is a main connection tunnel located at depth of 1000 m in Qishan coal mine,Xuzhou mining district. Tunnel deformation was monitored by using strain gauges and a video camera simultaneously. Crack initiation and propagation process during the test were analyzed based on image analysis of the captured video photographs. At the same time, deformation process of the key monitoring points around the tunnel section is given by the monitored strain plots. Under the increasing external loads, crack initiation occurs firstly on the left wall of the tunnel, then on the immediate roof.Complete failure of the tunnel occurs as a result of the slippage of the rock layers along the interfaces.展开更多
