Description
Summary:The charge structure is an important factor in the adjustment of the energy distribution of explosives and the control of the blasting effect, especially in an underground large-diameter longhole, for interval charge millisecond blasting design. To achieve a reasonable charge structure, a multi-planar detection optimization (MDO) algorithm for charge structures is proposed based on the Harries mathematical model and the superposition method. The vector size of a fragment is transformed into a scalar ruler, and the definition of the spatial non-uniformity evaluation factor is used in the MDO algorithm. A detailed methodology is implemented using a Visual LISP program and validated for a case study of the Fankou lead-zinc mine in China. The results reveal that the MDO algorithm can improve the rock fragmentation and increase the energy utilization rate of explosives in large-diameter longhole blasting operations. This algorithm could be extremely helpful in the process of underground mine blast optimization.
