Penetration Form of Inter-Hole Cracks under Double-Hole Blasting Conditions with Inclined Fissures by Shiwei Shen, Yue Zhao, Chang Liu, Shulin Dai, Fei Wu, Man Jiang

“…The peak propagation velocity decreased with the increasing vertical distance between the prefabricated fracture and the borehole, and the stress intensity factor at the crack tip immediately reached its peak value after detonation, and the oscillation then decreased. These research results can serve a basis for reducing tunnel blasting over-excavation under this condition and optimizing blasting parameters.…”
