    Abstract: Based on the raw data of shield pressure and overlying strata movement measured in the field, the ground pressure features and overlying strata movement were analyzed in 8202 extra-thick coal seam longwall top coal caving working face of Tongxin coal mine after its extraction. The research results show that: during the process of mining, the interv... Show More
