Floor Heave Mechanism and Control Technique of Water‐Rich Soft‐Rock Roadway in Thick Coal Seam by Fulian He, Wenli Zhai, Weixin Liu, Ning Sun, Jiayu Song, Jianlong Zhang, Yanhao Wu

“…A mechanical model of the asymmetric floor heave was established, and it was found that the stability of the roadway floor was positively correlated with the floor rock type, the stress concentration coefficients on the two sides of the roadway, and the burial depth, whereas it was negatively correlated with the cohesive force and internal friction angle of the floor rock mass. Expressions for the upward resultant force R of the roadway floor and the stress concentration coefficients K and K′ on both sides of the roadway were derived. …”
