Abstract: With the application of mining method,research on coupling theory of mining stress field and seepage field has been hotspot at home and abroad.Mining stress field of surrounding rock,evolvement rules of seepage field and gas seepage theory were introduced by sorting out and analyzing related reference at home and abroad and research direction and tendency of coupling theory of stress field and seepage field in high intensity mining were expected.Coupling research of stress field and gas seepage field is requirement of assuring safety mining and also an important theoretic foundation for gas safety problems,which is instructive for engineering practice.
