“…However, abandoning these underground resources also places economic pressure on the planning and development of coal enterprises. 12,20 To prevent rock deformation and control surface subsidence, mine backfilling technology delivers material (including fly ash, gangue, or a compound slurry) to the gob area, 14 zone, 12,13,22 and caving zone. Numerous studies have attempted to address this problem [1][2][3][4][5][6] and to estimate the influence 7 with different methods.…”

Mining‐induced voids are the main circulation pathways for underground fluids such as water and coalbed methane. The collapse of these voids transmits to the ground surface, resulting in subsidence and building collapse. Accordingly, effective and feasible solutions are needed to control surface subsidence. In this study, a novel technique of void filling in the short‐wall caving zone was proposed to better control surface subsidence in thin coal seam mining. The width of the working face plays a key role in the proposed technique. A maximum surface subsidence value was predicted using numerical simulation and physical simulation experiments with different working face widths. The results indicate that the appropriate working face width should be less than 50 m for the studied coal mine. In this example, the surface subsidence coefficient was less than the standard value for initial damage to rural structures. Both advancing speed and productivity of the working face were achieved using the proposed technique because the filling and mining processes were conducted simultaneously on different faces. The results suggest that surface subsidence during thin coal seam mining could be controlled using the proposed technique. This technique can also help mitigate mining‐induced water inrush and gas leakage disasters by filling voids.

In underground mining operations, the overlying strata move, deform, and crack as the underground working face advances due to strata breakage, failure, and subsidence, forming a “vertical three zone” over the mined out area. The permeability of strata under mining changes differently in different zones. Therefore, studying the distribution of strata permeability is very important to obtain knowledge of gas migration pattern in the overlying strata in order to increase the gas extraction efficiency. In this study, a series of numerical models are developed to describe the overlying strata movement for three different zones. In detail, models for calculating the strata subsidence for fracture and bending zones and analyzing strata collapsing development for the caving zone are proposed based on the influence function method and mechanical analyses. In addition, on the basis of such models, a new comprehensive model to describe the strain‐porosity‐permeability of strata is developed. In the case study of applying such models in an underground mine, the reliability of the strata movement model is verified and the permeability change is also calculated, which gives a good guidance to design the location of gas drainage roadway practices in the future. The field engineering practice shows its good application.
