Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the excavation of a deep‐buried tunnel by the drilling and blasting method, the dynamic stress of blasting may cause the disorderly release of high energy in the rock mass during the blasting process of deep high‐energy rock. Blasting vibration is one of the main factors inducing dynamic disasters (such as rockbursts) in the surrounding

Bolt Anchorage Quality Levels Classification Method Based on HO‐VMD‐CNN‐BiLSTM
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.First, the original ultrasound‐guided wave signal data is decomposed into multiple sub‐signals with varying frequencies using VMD to capture the multi‐scale features within the data. Second, the decomposed and noise‐reduced signal, processed by the HO‐VMD algorithm, is input into the CNN for further feature extraction through convolution and pooling ...
