Authentication of real rock mass field voltage to increase safety in anomalous stress states
Koníček, Petr ; Staš, Lubomír ; Ptáček, Jiří ; Kaláb, Tomáš ; Chura, Jan ; Souček, Kamil ; Waclawik, Petr
Voltage fields are one of the key factors that, decisively, along with the mechanical and remodeling properties of rocks, greatly influence the behavior of the mountain massif. Knowledge of stress fields is beneficial for the design and successful implementation of geotechnical underground projects (eg for the assessment of the stability of underground spaces, the behavior of proposed reinforcements of underground structures, for space-time placement of underground structures) especially in non-trivial geomechanical conditions, both in terms of natural factors affecting stress fields structural and geological structure of the rock mass, tectonic stress, cracks and discontinuity in the rock mass) as well as anthropogenic factors (geomechanical configuration of the underground spaces and dynamics of their changes). Geotechnical practice in our (Czech) conditions is usually used only calculations of a voltage field based primarily on the theoretical behavior of the rocks and the assumed vertical geostatic pressure at a given depth. The development of possible progressive deformations of the stress field is then derived from the development of anthropogenic interventions into a relatively homogeneous massif. In fact, tension is also affected by close geological structures. The data obtained from the study of the magnitude, direction and change of stress in the mountain massif are a significant contribution in mathematical modeling where they can be used as input parameters to obtain a more accurate picture of the behavior of mountain massifs and underground structures in the subject areas.

Bukov Underground Research Facility (Bukov URF) has been built as a test site to assess the properties and behaviour of the rock mass analogous to selected candidate sites. It is situated at a depth corresponding to the proposed storage depth of the final locality for the Czech Republic´s deep repository of high-level radioactive waste. Bukov URF is located in the Vysočina Region, the cadastral district of Bukov, approx. 3 km south-eastwards from the municipality of Dolní Rožínka. The underground research facility is placed approx. 300 m from the Bukov-1 shaft, namely on the level 12 of the shaft, at the depth of about 550 – 600 meters below the Earth’s surface. As for the regional geology, Bukov URF is found at the southern part of the Rožná uranium deposit, at the north-eastern edge of the Strážek Moldanubicum close to its contact with the Svratka Unit. The rock mass is composed of a relatively monotonous sequence of differently migmatized biotite gneisses to stromatic migmatites, continuing with amphibole-biotite to biotite-amphibole gneisses and amphiboles, with occasional fine intercalations of aplites, pegmatites or calc-silicate rocks (erlanes). Between 2013 and 2017 and within the complex geotechnical characterization of the Bukov URF, the Institute of Geonics of the Czech Academy of Sciences (Ústav geoniky AV ČR, v.v.i.) in Ostrava carried out a series of laboratory and field works in order to provide a detailed description of the geotechnical and geomechanical properties and quality of the rock mass. The works included the determination and assessment of the physical-mechanical properties of the rocks sampled from the walls, boreholes and ground surface in the locality, the determination of stress state and deformation properties of the rock mass using the methods of hydrofracturing of borehole walls, Goodman Jack and CCBO, or CCBM, determination of the rock mass quality based on selected index geomechanical properties, periodic, long-term strain-gauge measurements and convergence measurements, and the assessment of the effect of technical and mine-induced seismicity on the rock mass of interest. The implemented set of research works was supposed to render a sufficient and integral whole of geotechnical and geomechanical knowledge vital for the subsequent implementation of extensive research experiments focused on long-term safety and technical feasibility of the future national deep repository of radioactive waste.

Deformometric and leveling measurements in the cadastral area of Dětmarovice village in 2017
Kajzar, Vlastimil ; Staš, Lubomír
Institute of Geonics AS CR, v.v.i. in 2001, in connection with the underground mining of coal reserves and its possible influence on the cadastral area of Dětmarovice, Ostrava was asked in 2001 to assess the possible impacts of undermining on the stability of slopes on selected parts of the cadastral territory of Dětmarovice. Consequences of the mining are, among other things, surface drops, which, due to the existing morphology of the terrain in the cadastral area in question, raised the concern that these declines would not further induce sloping movements.

Elevation measurements in the northern area of the Doubrava mining areas and Karvina Doly I in 2017
Kajzar, Vlastimil ; Waclawik, Petr ; Staš, Lubomír
In the northern area of the mining quarters Doubrava and Karviná Doly I, the mining works are carried out at the boundary of the Dětmarovice and Doubrava Regional Authority. For this reason, the points in this area are stabilized on a regular basis twice a year in order to determine possible mine effects on surface and surface objects. Since 2014, the Institute of Geonics ASCR, v.v.i., Ostrava has been chosen as the contractor of these works. In June and November 2017, the campaign measures planned for this year were carried out, during which a total of 4 inter-related leveling routes were created.

Final Report - Rating of the deformation stress monitoring the state of the rock mass during mining coal seam 30 (634) within the trial operation of mining method corridor-a pillar in OPJ ČSM - NORTH
Waclawik, Petr ; Kukutsch, Radovan ; Kajzar, Vlastimil ; Ptáček, Jiří ; Staš, Lubomír
Monitoring of the deformation stress state of the rock mass is a prerequisite for the verification of unapproved new mining methods hall-pillar and its further application in the Czech part of the Upper Silesian coal basin. This mining method is designed on the basis of experiences and practices that are verified in different natural conditions and depths below the surface and is therefore essential for the verification of conditions for the Czech part of the Upper Silesian Basin based on geotechnical monitoring. The present report is prepared on the basis of a contract no. 942/50/10, where the Institute of Geonics, v.v agrees to make periodic evaluation of monitoring data napěťodeformačního state of the rock mass. In accordance with the aforementioned agreement, the message is processed in the six-month period and continues in the interim report V/2016 (Waclawik et al. 2016). Interim results of the geotechnical monitoring, such as the experience gained during the first conquest dobývky V show specifics of natural conditions in trial operation unapproved new mining methods hall-pillar.

Blaheta, Radim ; Maryška, J. ; Březina, J. ; Stebel, J. ; Šembera, J. ; Balvín, A. ; Bruský, I. ; Hasal, Martin ; Michalec, Zdeněk ; Staš, Lubomír ; Sysala, Stanislav
This final report summarizes the progress of work and results for the whole period of the project. The subject is modelling of tasks within the project Decovalex-2015, development of Flow123d software, and preparation of documents for its standardization using the comparison results with foreign teams. TUL team participated in Task C1 (THMC processes in a single fracture) using the software Geochemist’s Workbench and their own tool TrAper for connecting chemistry and deformation and Task C2 (flow and transport in the vicinity of the tunnel Bedřichov) using Flow123d software. Task C2 also includes the formulation of the assignment and coordination of the solution of other teams. The ÚGN team participated in Task A, focusing on saturation of bentonite seals in clay rock and closing the gap, with the help of the COMSOL Multiphysics software. The outputs are the joint report by international teams and papers in a special issue of a journal. The developed models and lessons learned contribute to the ability to predict phenomena in the deep geological repository. Another result is a set of documents for the Flow123d software. All of which are attached to the report as attachments.
