Optimization of Barrier Pillar Design in Longwall Mining with Top Coal Caving in Spontaneous Combustion Coal Seam

Determining a reasonable barrier pillar along gob-side entry of spontaneous combustion coal seam is of great significance to the prevention of spontaneous combustion. In this paper, considering the actual situation of 4301 and 4302 working faces of II-class spontaneous combustion coal seam in Changh...
