Comparative performance of six supervised learning methods for the development of models of hard rock pillar stability prediction

TL;DR: Six supervised learning algorithms, including linear discriminant analysis, multinomial logistic regression, multilayer perceptron neural networks, support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting machine are evaluated for their ability to learn for PS based on different input parameter combinations.

A numerical model for outburst including the effect of adsorbed gas on coal deformation and mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for gas migration and mechanical processes during excavation is established for gas desorption on outburst initiation, and the results obtained consider the deformation and mechanical changes and are compared with those obtained with consideration of only free gas.

Study of a no-pillar mining technique with automatically formed gob-side entry retaining for longwall mining in coal mines

TL;DR: In this article, a no-pillar mining technique with automatically formed gob-side entry retaining is proposed for long-wall mining, where pressure is offloaded via directional roof cutting, and a roadway is automatically formed via the ground pressure and rock breaking expansion.

Empirical Strength Criterion for Rock Masses

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical strength criterion for rocks and rock masses is proposed, which includes the uniaxial compressive strength of the intact rock material and introduces two dimensionless parameters, m and s.

Considerations of the dilatancy angle in rocks and rock masses

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a detailed analysis of published test data with a view to proposing a sufficiently significant but conveniently simple formulation of the dilatancy angle that reflects these dependencies and that can be readily implemented in numerical codes.
