FLAC3D Simulation of Caving Mechanism and Strata Fracture Response in Underground Mining

This paper presents an innovative numerical approach to simulating the progressive caving of rock mass in the overburden and floor during longwall mining. A modified caving algorithm is incorporated into FLAC3D 9.0, augmented with the IMASS constitutive model, to accurately replicate the fracturing...
