Abstract
The goaf is an important factor that induces major accidents. Based on the quantitative analysis of the existing research results, summarize and sort out the research and prevention technology of the goaf disaster with the experience of experts. Temporally, the research on goaf disasters was divided into two stages: the embryonic stage and the rapid development stage. Spatially, a collaborative network with the United States, China, Germany, France, Turkey, and the United Kingdom as the core, including India, Japan, Belgium, Italy, South Korea, and Canada, was analyzed. By constructing a co-occurrence and clustering network of keywords and co-cited literature to explore the focus and hotspots of goaf disaster research, the hotspots of goaf disaster research are summarized into four main aspects, such as goaf detection technology, goaf disaster analysis, goaf risk assessment and goaf treatment technology, which grasp the content of goaf research from a macro perspective. The burst detection analysis of keywords and co-cited literature was conducted to obtain the research frontiers of goaf disaster research in different periods. At the current stage, the microstructural characteristics of surrounding rocks in the context of deep mining and complex goaf group effect and the mining technology of the integration of excavation, anchoring and supporting are the current frontier research directions. This combined qualitative and quantitative method is more helpful to grasp the development context of goaf disaster research and provides a new reference perspective for sorting out the process of goaf disaster research.
