Coal pillar mechanics of violent failure in U.S. Mines
This paper seeks to enhance the understanding that the horizontal stresses build up and release during coal pillar loading and unloading (post-failure) drawing upon three decades of observations, geomechanical monitoring and numerical modeling in bump-prone U.S. mines. The focus is on induced horizo...
