Estimate of the interchamber pillar stability based on the damage accumulation criterion

  • Published:
Journal of Mining Science Aims and scope

Abstract

The 3D viscoelastic deformation model has been developed for estimating stability of pillars based on the criterion of damage accumulation. It is proposed to determine parameters of the state-of-damage function by the data of the triaxial creep test of samples. The dependence of pillar longevity on the value of the tectonic stresses is proved.
