The application of empirical equations is a common practice in calculating coal pillar loads while designing a new pillar. This paper proposes numerical models for evaluating coal pillar loads. The key of building a successful numerical model for calculating coal pillar loads lies in the fact that the model should represent the redistribution of stress all over the longwall panels and the surrounding areas, and it is especially important to include the characteristics of the stress rebuilding process in the gob areas, which are crucial for the building process of coal pillar loads. Based on the geo-mechanical background of the Baoshan Coal Mine, this paper details the procedures of applying numerical models to the evaluation of coal pillar loads and their local practices. The study results show it is feasible and reasonable to use numerical models to evaluate coal pillar loads.展开更多

The present work developed an ellipsoid-based simulated annealing method and numeri- cally reconstructed the three-dimensional microstructure of a graphite anode. The reconstructed anode is a composite of three clearly distinguished phases: pore (or electrolyte), graphite, and solid additives, well representing the non- isotropic heterogeneous characteristic of real graphite anode. Characterization analysis of the reconstructed electrode gives information such as the connectivity of individual phase, the specific interracial area between solid and pore phase, and the pore size distribution. The effects of the ellipsoid size on the structural characteristics of graphite anode were particularly studied. As the size of the ellipsoidal particle slightly increases, the average pore diameter increases and as a result the specific interfacial area between the solid and pore phase in the reconstructed area decreases; compared with the equatorial radius, the polar radius of ellipsoidal graphite particles has more sig- nificant influence on the characteristics of electrode microstructure.展开更多
