Evaluation of space radius formed by blasting pressure with linear charges

Based on the mechanism analysis of space form caused by blasting with lin- ear charges, elastic-plastic model of space form caused by blasting was established in this paper. In terms of state equation of blasting and the balance of quality, evaluation formula based on elastic-plastic to estimate space diameter caused by blasting with lin- ear charges was given. The procedure structure of evaluation was introduced. We did 18 experiments on situ and compared experiments results with evaluation ones. They are correspondent very well. Then a new method of evaluating underground space di- ameters caused by blasting with linear charges was given. The method has more great guidance significance to the optimism plan of the new blasting technology that utilizes the explosion effect of the explosive to compact the soil to form the underground space.

Numerical simulation of shock wave interaction with a deformable particle based on the pseudo arc-length method

In this paper, we combine the pseudo arc-length numerical method with the mathematical model of multiphase compressible flow for simulating the shock wave interaction with a deformable particle. Firstly, an arc-length parameter is introduced to weaken the discontinuous singularity of governing equations, and an efficient pseudo arc-length numerical method of multiphase compressible flow is proposed. Then the accuracy and adaptive moving mesh property of this algorithm are tested. Finally, the multiphase pseudo arc-length numerical method is applied to the problem of interaction between shock wave and the deformable particle. Through the flow flied change and data analysis of key points, it can be found the complex wave structures are presented after the interactions between the planar incident shock wave and the metal particle, and all these wave interactions lead to the movement and deformation of metal particle, and then the deformed particle will affect the transmitted shock wave back. According to the discussion, the deformation of particle and shock wave propagation in the particle are determined by the shock wave impedance of each medium and shock speed, so the interaction between shock wave and the deformable particle can be studied on the basis of physical properties of explosive mediums.
