Analysis and Application of Vibration Damping Hole in Tunnel Working Face Based on Grey Correlation Analysis by Baofu Duan, Zhang Zhengxin, Zhang Chunwu, Zongjun Sun

“…Among them, the effect of damping hole spacing is particularly obvious. Combined with numerical calculation and comprehensive analysis of on-site construction effects, it is found that during the construction process, the distance between the vibration damping holes is 120 mm, the distance between the vibration damping holes and the explosion source is 2000 mm, the diameter of the vibration damping holes is more than 120 mm, the depth of the vibration damping holes is 1200–1500 mm, and double-row vibration-damping hole spacing is 50–100 mm, which can achieve a better vibration-damping effect. …”
