Article
Global and micro/macro structural models simulating the Longwall generator concept for underground coal gasification (UCG) are formulated for several geometric and loading conditions. Dynamic thermal and stress response solutions are computed for axisymmetric boundary value problems represented by a stationary circular cavity model and an expanding...
Article
Dynamic temperature and stress solutions are obtained for the boundary value problem posed by a combustion front uniformly translating in a thin coal seam. Static stress profiles are obtained for a layered, plane strain model represented by an elliptical cavity in a coal seam and subjected to tectonic stress, overburden stress, internal pressure, a...

... Khan et al. (2015) recently reviewed underground coal gasification modeling works. Several geomechanical modeling of UCG process were also published (e.g., Advani et al., 1976;1977;Akbarzadeh and Chalaturnyk, 2013;Laouafa et al., 2016;Morris et al., 2009;Tan et al., 2008;Vorobiev et al., 2008). In these works, simplified ge- ometries were usually assumed for the UCG cavities; with or without syngas pressure and temperature. ...
