Explosive wave propagation in the presence of antiseismic protective curtain

Abstract

The objective of this work is to study theoretically the stress wave formation in the borehole-to-borehole space and on the boundary with the borehole contour set by creating a directed fracture system in it. The features of an interaction of the weak stress wave at a large-scale blasting in the short-delay blast mode (SDB) with the massif and the protective contour set of boreholes, are considered. It is noted the effect of the contour set parameters on wave processes. The constructive solutions are proposed in order to reduce the dynamic loadings in the peripheral rock massif. The proposals consist in applying a combined construction of garland charges to form the seismo protective structure that consists of a contour fracture and one-sided disrupted zone within the boundaries of the blasted block.
