    Abstract: No. 38 coal seam is the main coal seam in Cuipingshan Coal Mine. In order to reveal its coal-forming mechanism, the microlithologic types of No. 38 coal seam in Cuipingshan Coal Mine are analyzed by using modern testing methods such as sequence stratigraphy, coal petrology and geochemistry. We find that the maceral of No. 38 coal seam is mainly vit... Show More

    Abstract: In the Shirakawa River, remarkable deformation due to sediment deposition was observed after the river channel improvement work. The sediment deposition was observed at the bend of the river channel. In this research, a model experiment, a quasi-three-dimensional numerical simulation and planer two-dimensional bed variation analysis were conducted ... Show More
