Rock fragmentation by blasting is still among the most challenging of problems in
geomechanical engineering. The intent of this work is not to develop a new overall blast …

Air over-pressure (AOp) is one of the products of blasting operations for rock fragmentation
in open-pit mines. It can cause structural vibration, smash glass doors, adversely affect the …

Blasting is an inseparable part of the rock fragmentation process in hard rock mining. As an
adverse and undesirable effect of blasting on surrounding areas, airblast-overpressure …

Mines, quarries, and construction sites face environmental damages due to blasting
environmental impacts such as ground vibration and air overpressure. These phenomena …

Blasting operations typically have several negative impacts upon human beings and
constructions in adjacent region. Among all, air-overpressure (AOp) has been persistently …

Blasting operations usually produce significant environmental problems which may cause
severe damage to the nearby areas. Air-overpressure (AOp) is one of the most important …

In addition to all benefits of blasting in mining and civil engineering applications, blasting
has some undesirable impacts on surrounding areas. Blast-induced air-overpressure (AOp) …

Blasting, as the most frequently used method for hard rock fragmentation, is a hazardous
aspect in mining industries. These operations produce several undesirable environmental …

This research presents several non-linear models including empirical, artificial neural
network (ANN), fuzzy system and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to estimate …

Blasting operations usually produce significant environmental problems which may cause
