The blasting test was carried out for ten times at some tunnels of Changba Lead-Zinc Mine. The damage depth of surrounding rock caused by old blasting excavation （0.8-1.2 m） was confirmed. The relation between the cumulative damage degree and blast times was obtained. The results show that the sonic velocity decreases gradually with increasing blast times, hut the damage degree （D） increases. The damage cumulative law is non-linear. The damage degree caused by blast decreases with increasing distance, and damage effects become indistinct. The blasting damage of rock mass is anisotropic. The damage degree of rock mass within charging range is maximal. And the more the charge is, the more severe the damage degree of rock mass is. The test results provide references for researches of mechanical parameters of rock mass and dynamic stability analysis of underground chambers.展开更多

The tilt gravitational tide, the load tide, the radiational tide and the nonlinear tide with the same frequeny are separated off. It is shown that the load tide and the gravitational tide are the same quantity grade, the load tide may spread into inland far away; the solar thermal-radiation has an effect on the tilt tide; there is a little nonlinear tide in the tilt tide, but the nonlinear tide of the ocean tide has the stronger loading effect on the tilt tide than the nonlinear tide brought about by the gravitational tide itself; the lag interval, △τ=41 (h), is the best value in the response analysis. In addition, the harmonic analyses of the tilt tide and the separated tilt tides are made respectively by using j.v model, and their ellipse factors are calculated.展开更多
