Similar simulation device for unloading effect of deep roadway excavation and its application

摘要

The unloading effect of the excavation of deep roadways has been considerably studied,but most research methods have been limited to numerical simulations and field measurements.Only a few have adopted experimental methods for similar simulations.On the basis of the theory of mechanics,the testing system is designed considering initial geostress and dynamic unloading.The system includes an impact unloading gear and in-situ stress loading equipment,and a designed three-link structure and the impact hammer can effectively realize the dynamic excavation of roadways.Meanwhile,a cyclic excavation similar simulation experiment on a deep roadway is conducted in a laboratory.The testing system and the relevant monitoring facilities are utilized,and the unloading effect inside the surrounding rock under the cyclic dynamic excavation is studied.Results show that the cyclic dynamic excavation causes significant unloading only in the nearby rock mass,and the unloading indicators show nonlinear changes.Moreover,when the lateral pressure coefficient is 1.2,the damage is concentrated on both roadsides due to the excavation unloading.Meanwhile,the damage gradually decays as the span increases.
