Abstract
This paper investigates the influence of in-situ stress on the damage and vibration of jointed rock mass by double-hole blasting. Firstly, the hoop stress distribution around the blasthole under static load was explored. Then, six rock mass models with joint inclinations of 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90° were respectively established in the middle of the two blastholes. Finally, the blasting-induced damage and attenuation behavior of peak particle velocity (PPV) under different in-situ stress conditions were numerically simulated. The results indicate that under hydrostatic pressure, the proportion of crushed elements and the length of main cracks are negatively correlated with the magnitude of in-situ stress. The PPV initially increases and subsequently decreases as the in-situ stress rises. Under the action of non-hydrostatic pressure, when the vertical in-situ stress is constant, the proportion of the crushed elements and the length of the main cracks in the vertical direction decrease with the increase of the horizontal in-situ stress. When the horizontal in-situ stress increases and the joint inclination is between 0° and 75°, the PPV in the horizontal direction first increases and then decreases. When the joint inclination is 90°, the PPV in the horizontal direction consistently increases with the increase of the horizontal in-situ stress. These results can provide reference for the estimation of rock fragmentation in blasting operations.
