Abstract
In the process of mining coal energy, the excavation of roadways and drilling causes the formation of a nonuniform stress field around the penetration holes, which will lead to a significant concentration of stress around the penetration hole. It even leads to the destruction of the surrounding rock of the penetration hole, affecting the integrity of the surrounding rock of the penetration hole. It has an effect on the strength of the rock obtained by the borehole penetration methods. Based on Abaqus software, the numerical model of borehole penetration was constructed by embedding cohesion elements between solid elements. After analyzing the simulation results obtained under different stress boundaries and penetration directions, the following findings are obtained. (1) Using the occurrence of cracks in the borehole surrounding rock as the criterion, the rock is categorized into either an elastic stress state or a plastic stress state after applying different stress boundary conditions. (2) When the borehole surrounding rock is in the elastic (plastic) stress state, the penetration strength increases (decreases) with the increase of lateral pressure coefficient. (3) In the elastic stress state, borehole surrounding rock's fracture area and crack penetration depth increase (decrease) with the increase of lateral pressure coefficient when the penetration direction is parallel (perpendicular) to the maximum principal stress. In the plastic stress state, the fracture area increases, while crack penetration depth decreases with higher lateral pressure coefficient.
