Prediction model for extent of excavation damaged zone around roadway
based on dimensional analysis
In order to determine the extent of excavation damaged zone around roadway more reasonably
a new prediction method is proposed based on the dimensional analysis theory. Some physical quantities such as rock uniaxial compressive strength Rc
joint coefficient of rock F
unit weight of rock ?
depth of roadway H
maximum horizontal principal stress ?Hmax and span of roadway B are selected; the dimensionless relations among the thickness of excavation damaged zone L and above mentioned physical quantities are established by means of dimensional analysis. Among them
L/H represented that the thickness of excavation damaged zone is proportional to depth of roadway; F represented structural characteristic of surrounding rock; both ?H/Rc and ?Hmax/Rc represented mechanical characteristics of surrounding rock; B/H represented geometric characteristic of roadway. The quantitative function formula among these dimensionless relations is derived by combining with some field test data
the residual sum of square is 0.003 1
and the correlation coefficient is 0.937 9. Finally
the prediction model of the excavation damaged zone is validated with some testing examples from 3 mines. The results show that the calculation results satisfyingly agree with the measured data at the average relative error of 7.38%
which can be of interest from a practical viewpoint.
