“…Liu et al [31] developed and designed tensile and compressive damage models using the finite element method, and then assessed the influence of different initiation point positions on the solid medium destruction using an experimental bench. To study blast wave field, Zuo et al [32], [33] analyze characteristics of blast shock wave propagation and gaseous detonation products when a cylindrical charge is initiated at its end and center. They have found that range of medium destruction at each initiation mode is about five times of explosive cavity diameter.…”

Purpose. The research aims to assess the efficiency and performance of solid media destruction in directed blasting of a charge with variable cross-sectional shape. Methods. Numerical modelling of the blast wave interaction process is performed using the finite element method based on the Euler-Lagrange algorithm. The Johns-Wilkins-Lee equation of state is used to determine the pressure-volume dependences of medium destruction. Assessment of solid medium destruction mechanism during a directed blasting of a charge with variable cross-sectional shape is carried out based on polarization-optical method on models made of optically active material. Findings. Experimental studies of solid medium destruction by the action of directed blasting with a variable cross-section charge made it possible to determine the direction of blast wave propagation and its amplitude in stress wave, influencing the intensity of radial crack network formation in superposition areas, and directed perpendicularly to explosive cavity. At the same time, the average peak pressure in collision zone of two shock waves in centre of spherical cavity is approximately 1.48 and 1.84 times higher than that in weakly blast-loaded areas. It has been found that when two shock waves collide and superimpose on each other, the intensity of their impact increases. Moreover, the shock wave velocity in collision zone is higher than that of the radial shock wave. Originality. It has been determined that the maximum pressure values on the explosive cavity wall at the initiation points sharply increase and then gradually stabilize as the blast stress waves propagate and have an arbitrary distribution pattern. Three areas should be considered: not superimposed, weakly superimposed, and strongly superimposed. At each point of detonation, the pressure on explosive cavity wall will be minimal, while in the charge centre in the spherical insert zone, on the contrary, it will be maximal. In this case, the pressure in the central superposition area is about 2.84 times greater than at the initiation ends, and the nature of distribution changes according to a linear dependence. Practical implications. The performed research findings can serve as a basis for development of effective parameters of resource-saving methods for stripping hard rocks of complex structure in the conditions of ore mines.
