Effect of initiation pattern on rock damage and blasting seismic under multi-hole blasting
In multi-hole blasting, the design of the initiation pattern is critical for the blasting effectiveness, but its effects on rock damage and blasting seismic are still unclear. This research focused on investigating the effect of initiation patterns under

Study on Numerical Simulation of Geometric Elements of Blasting Funnel Based on PFC5.0
Based on the particle flow code (PFC2D) within the discrete element method (DEM), the rock mass model was established according to the site rock conditions and the rock mass blasting was simulated by the explosive particle expansion method. The influence

Burden movement in confined drift wall blasting tests studied at the LKAB Kiruna SLC mine
Blasting in SLC (sublevel caving) takes place in a semi-confined situation. Blasted material swells while the caved material compacts, and also, to a lesser extent, fills parts of the void volume of the production drift.
