Abstract

Water inrush hazards in coal mines pose a great risk to the safety of miners and coal production. We studied journal articles on coal mine water inrush prevention and control from 2000 to March 2019 using data from the Web of Science Core Collection V.5.32 database. We used CiteSpace V.5.3.R11 software to analyse the literature, including countries, institutions, authors, disciplines, journals, hot topics, and research frontiers. A total of 1612 published papers on coal mine water inrush prevention and control research were identified. China and the USA had the highest numbers of publications in this field. The China University of Mining and Technology was the most influential research institution. The journal with the largest number of relevant publications was the International Journal of Coal Geology. Hidden water disasters, quantitative evaluation of aquicludes, and rapid identification of water inrush sources are still unresolved problems. Improvement of electromagnetic methods, intelligent mine water monitoring, and three-dimensional hydrogeological systems were the leading research trends in this field.

Zusammenfassung

Wassereinbruchsgefahren in Kohlenminen sind ein großes Risiko für die Sicherheit der Bergleute und für die Kohlenproduktion. Wir untersuchten Zeitschriftenartikel über die Vorkehrung und Maßnahmen gegen Wassereinbrüche im Kohlenbergbau von 2000 bis März 2019, unter Nutzung von Daten der Web of Science Core Collection V.5.32 Datenbank. Wir benutzten das Programm CiteSpace V.5.3.R11 um Literatur, Länder, Institutionen, Autoren, Disziplinen, Zeitschriften, aktuelle Themen und die Grenzen der Wissenschaft zu untersuchen. Insgesamt wurden 1612 veröffentlichte Artikel über Forschung zu Wassereinbruchsvorkehrung und Gegenmaßnahmen im Kohlenbergbau identifiziert. China und USA hatten in dem Feld die größte Zahl von Publikationen. Die China University of Mining and Technology war die einflußreichste Forschungsinstitution. Das International Journal of Coal Geology enthielt die größte Zahl wichtiger Publikationen. Verborgene Wasserhavarien, die quantitative Bewertung undurchlässiger Schichten, und die schnelle Identifizierung der Einbruchsquelle sind noch immer ungelöste Probleme. Verbesserte elektromagnetische Methoden, eine intelligente Überwachung des Bergbauwassers, und dreidimensionale hydrogeologische Systeme sind in dem Felde die führenden Entwicklungen der Forschung.

摘要

煤矿突水灾害对煤矿工人和煤炭生产安全构成了极大威胁。从科学核心数据库V.5.32,我们研究了2000年至2019年3月关于煤矿突水防治的期刊文章。利用软件CiteSpaceV.5.3.R11分析了文献的研究国家与机构、作者、所属学科领域、出版期刊、热点和前沿。识别出1612篇公开发表的煤矿突水防治研究论文。中国和美国在这一领域出版文献数量最多。中国矿业大学是最有影响力的研究机构。《国际煤炭地质International Journal of Coal Geology》发表相关文献最多。隐蔽水害、隔水层定量评价、突水水源快速识别等仍是未解决的难题。电磁勘探改进、矿井水智能监测和三维水文地质系统是该领域的主要研究趋势。

Resumen

Los riesgos de la entrada de agua en las minas de carbón representan un gran riesgo para la seguridad de los mineros y la producción de carbón. Estudiamos artículos de revistas sobre la prevención y el control de la entrada de agua en las minas de carbón desde 2000 hasta marzo de 2019 utilizando datos de la base de datos Web of Science Core Collection V.5.32. Utilizamos el software CiteSpace V.5.3.R11 para analizar la literatura, incluyendo países, instituciones, autores, disciplinas, revistas, temas relevantes y fronteras de investigación. Se identificaron un total de 1.612 artículos publicados sobre investigación de prevención y control de la entrada de agua en minas de carbón. China y los Estados Unidos tuvieron el mayor número de publicaciones en este campo. La Universidad de Minería y Tecnología de China fue la institución de investigación más influyente. La revista con el mayor número de publicaciones relevantes fue International Journal of Coal Geology. Los desastres de agua oculta, la evaluación cuantitativa de acuicludos y la identificación rápida de fuentes de entrada de agua siguen siendo problemas no resueltos. La mejora de los métodos electromagnéticos, el monitoreo inteligente del agua de las minas y los sistemas hidrogeológicos tridimensionales, fueron las principales tendencias de la investigación en este campo.
