1. Introduction. Most of the coal mines in China are extended into the deep underground (over 1000 m) as the shallow coal resource has gradually been depleted. 1 In deep mining, highfrequency dynamic disasters are often involved in coal exploiting activities, which severely limits the mining efficiency and threatens the safety of workers. It is well known that the coalgas outburst and coal ...
