Design parameters such as initial bonding section, prestress, and bonding stiffness have a significant impact on the mechanical properties of the full-length bonded prestressed bolt. In order to understand the influence of the above three parameters on the axial force and shear stress of anchor bolts under the condition of rock separation, theoretical and numerical models were established, and the sensitivity of different parameters was analyzed based on the grey correlation method. Results indicate that the bonding stiffness had the greatest impact on the mechanical properties of the bolt and largely determined the peak axial force, peak interfacial shear stress, and number of sliding elements. Moreover, prestress had a significant impact on the peak axial force and the distribution of shear stress in the initial bonding section, while the length of the initial bonding section had a significant impact on the number of sliding elements and the peak axial force after sliding. The grey correlation method results show that the correlation degrees of the initial bonding section, prestress, and bonding stiffness were 0.8932, 0.9023, and 0.9775, respectively.

Improving coal resource mining rates has long been a focus of coal industry research. The gob-side entry retaining by roof cutting (GERRC) is a new coal mining technology that has gained popularity in China due to its high mining rate and safety. Based on the GERRC technology, the precise technical procedure is elaborated, and the fundamental idea of pressure relief is explored through creating a structural mechanics model of the surrounding rock in this paper. The results of mechanical analysis show that the primary mechanism of roof pressure release is to weaken the integrity of the roof, thereby reducing the ultimate bending moment of the rock stratum. In addition, an additional strategy for pressure release is suggested in this research, involving the weakening of the roof rock by the creation of dense pressure-released holes. The results of the engineering field experimentation demonstrate that the dense pressure-released holes can completely replace the conventional blasting technology of the past to achieve the effect of releasing the roof pressure, thus avoiding the use of hazardous and challenging-to-obtain explosives and demonstrating safety, reliability, and feasibility.
