Underground rock tunnels have been an integral part of human civilization, since several
decades. The construction and continuous use of these underground structures have …

The increased processing capacity of computer systems has enabled the realistic analysis of
complex geotechnical problems with the finite element method and detailed optimization …

This paper presents the effect of impact load and weathering of surrounding rockmass on
the deformation behavior of urban underground structures. The FEM based numerical …

Blast performance assessment of 300 m high arch dams is an important topic having been
extensively studied in recent years. Because the arch dam is convex on the upstream face …

The prediction of rate-dependent compressive strength of rocks in dynamic compression
experiments is still a notable challenge. Four machine learning models were introduced and …

Underground structures are widely constructed as the key parts of lifeline system with
synthetic functions in modern society. Simultaneously, the integration of blast-resisting …

This research proposes the utilization of a geopolymer-based blasting sealing material to
improve the profitability of coal sales and reduce the rate of coal fragmentation during …

During blasting in deep mining and excavation, the rock masses usually suffer from high in
situ stress. The initial seismic energy generated in deep rock blasting and its attenuation …

Real-time mine ventilation network solution is the core way to realize the actual intelligent
ventilation, and ventilation friction resistance coefficient is a significant parameter of network …

In this study a coupled-eulerian–lagrangian (CEL) approach has been applied to assess the
internal blast loading conditions, for the tunnel built in three layers of sandstone rock. The …
