Numerical Simulation Analysis on the Collapse of Slope in Iron Mine

Article Preview

Abstract:

The process of open-pit mining can lead to high slopes in iron mines, and natural slopes should be rebuilt by the method of roof fall as the exploitation style turns from open-pit mining to the underground mining. So the slope can be steep, deep and may has the characteristics of collapse. It is difficult to describe the stabilization of the mining slope by a conventional safety factor method. Through the numerical simulation of underground mining process, this paper analyzes the result of distortion stress and rock movement rupture range. Studies have shown that the failure mode is dominated by tensile failure as a pattern of collapse and few is dominated by shear failure. The failure zone is controlled by rock mass parameters and structures. The results can be helpful for the proposition of exploitation program and safety management design.
