Abstract Damage is one of the most important characteristics of rock failure. Studying the damage mechanism of rock blasting under the guiding effect of the water jet slot and revealing the mechanism of controlled blasting with water jet assistance are crucial. In this study, a rock-like material was chosen as the research object for the calibration experiment of the numerical model. The numerical simulation models were then established by ANSYS/LS-DYNA, and the blast-induced damage mechanism under the guiding effect of the water jet slot was analyzed according to the blasting theory. The results indicated that explosive energy accumulates toward the direction… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract An inverse method for parameters identification of discrete element model combined with experiment is proposed. The inverse problem of parameter identification is transmitted to solve an optimization problem by minimizing the distance between the numerical calculations and experiment responses. In this method, the discrete element method is employed as numerical calculator for the forward problem. Then, the orthogonal experiment design with range analysis was used to carry out parameters sensitivity analysis. In addition, to improve the computational efficiency, the approximate model technique is used to replace the actual computational model. The intergeneration projection genetic algorithm (IP-GA) is employed as the… More >
