This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the enhanced dynamic response of reinforced concrete blast doors with four-sided restraints in confined space. Explosion tests with TNT charges ranging from 0.15 kg to 0.4 kg were conducted in a confined space,capturing overpressure loads and the dynamic response of the blast door. An internal explosion model incorporating the afterburning effect was developed using LS-DYNA software and validated against experimental data. The results reveal that the TNT afterburning effect amplifies both the initial peak overpressure and the quasi-static overpressure, resulting in increased deformation of the blast door.Within the 0.15-0.4 kg charge range, the initial overpressure peak and quasi-static overpressure increased by an average of 1.79 times and 2.21 times, respectively. Additionally, the afterburning effect enhanced the blast door's deflection by 177%. Compared to open-space scenarios, the cumulative deflection of the blast door due to repeated shock wave impacts is significantly greater in confined spaces. Furthermore, the quasi-static pressure arising from the structural constraints sustains the blast door's deflection at a high level.展开更多

文摘Aiming at mitigating the high risks associated with conventional explosive blasting,this study developed a safe directional fracturing technique,i.e.instantaneous expansion with a single fracture(IESF),using a coal-based solid waste expanding agent.First,the mechanism of directional fracturing blasting by the IESF was analyzed,and the criterion of directional crack initiation was established.On this basis,laboratory experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to systematically evaluate the directional fracturing blasting performance of the IESF.The results indicate that the IESF presents an excellent directional fracturing effect,with average surface undulation differences ranging from 8.1 mm to 22.7 mm on the fracture surfaces.Moreover,during concrete fracturing tests,the stresses and strains in the fracturing direction are measured to be 2.16-3.71 times and 8 times larger than those in the nonfracturing direction,respectively.Finally,the IESF technique was implemented for no-pillar mining with gob-side entry retaining through roof cutting and pressure relief in an underground coal mine.The IESF technique effectively created directional cracks in the roof without causing severe roadway deformation,achieving an average cutting rate and maximum roadway deformation of 94%and 197 mm,respectively.These on-site test results verified its excellent directional rock fracturing performance.The IESF technique,which is safe,efficient,and green,has considerable application prospects in the field of rock mechanics and engineering.

文摘Hydrogen displays the potential to partially replace pulverized coal injection(PCI)in the blast furnace,and it can reduce CO_(2)emissions.In this paper,a three-dimensional mathematical model of hydrogen and pulverized coal co-injection in blast furnace tuyere was established through numerical simulation,and the effect of hydrogen injection and oxygen enrichment interaction on pulverized coal combustion and raceway smelting was investigated.The simulation results indicate that when the coal injection rate decreased from 36 to 30t/h and the hydrogen injection increased from 0 to 3600 m^(3)/h,the CO_(2)emissions decreased from 1860 to 1551 kg/t,which represents a16.6%reduction,and the pulverized coal burnout decreased from 70.1%to 63.7%.The heat released from hydrogen combustion can not only promote the volatilization of pulverized coal but also affect the combustion reaction between volatilization and oxygen,which resulted in a decrease in the temperature at the end of the raceway.Co-injection of hydrogen with PCI increased the wall temperature near the upper half part of the raceway and at the outlet of the tuyere,which required a high cooling efficiency to extend the service life of the blast furnace.The increase in oxygen level compensated for the decreased average temperature in the raceway due to hydrogen injection.The increase in the oxygen content by 3%while maintaining constant hydrogen and PCI injection rates increased the burnout and average raceway temperature by 4.2%and 43 K,respectively.The mole fraction of CO and H_(2) production increased by 0.04 and 0.02,respectively.Burnout can be improved through optimization of the particle size distribution of pulverized coal.

文摘Titanium-bearing blast furnace slag(Ti-BFS)is an industrial solid waste rich in titanium,magnesium and aluminum.However,it is difficult to utilize Ti,Mg and Al from Ti-BFS for the strong stability and poor reaction activity of Ti-BFS.A comprehensive utilization route of Ti,Mg and Al from Ti-BFS was proposed.Ti-BFS was firstly roasted with H_(2)SO_(4)to realizes the conversion of Ti,Mg and Al to their corresponding sulphates.The sulphates were leached by dilute H_(2)SO_(4)solution to extraction Ti,Mg and Al from roasted Ti-BFS.The roasting conditions were optimized as follows,sulfuric acid concentration of 85%(mass),temperature of 200℃,acid-slag ratio of 5.5,particle size of Ti-BFS<75μm,and reaction time of 1 h.The extraction rates of titanium,aluminum,and magnesium reached 82.42%,88.78%and 90.53%,respectively.The leachate was hydrolyzed at 102℃for 5 h with a titanium hydrolysis ratio of 96%.After filtration and calcination,TiO_(2)with a purity of 97%(mass)was obtained.Al in the leachate was converted to NH_(4)Al(SO_(4))_(2)·12H_(2)O by the neutralization of ammonia water at pH=4.5.Al_(2)O_(3) was obtained by the calcination of NH_(4)Al(SO_(4))_(2)·12H_(2)O.The residual solution can be used to prepare products of magnesium sulfate.In the proposed process,Ti,Mg and Al were extracted from Ti-BFS and utilized comprehensively to prepare valuable products.The leaching behavior of roasted Ti-BFS with water was also studied.It followed the unreacted shrinking core model.The apparent activation energy was 26.07 kJ·mol^(-1).This research not only provides a viable method for recovering valuable metals in Ti-BFS,but also provides a strategy to comprehensive utilize the valuable elements in Ti-BFS.

文摘In rock drilling and blasting,the misfire of electronic detonators will not only affect the rock fragmentation result but also bring serious potential safety hazards to engineering construction.An accurate and comprehensive understanding of the failure mechanisms of electronic detonators subjected to impact loading is of great significance to the reliability design and field safety use of electronic detonators.The spatial distribution characteristics and failure modes of misfired electronic detonators under different application scenarios are statistically analysed.The results show that under high impact loads,electronic detonators will experience failure phenomena such as rupture of the fuse head,fracture of the bridge wire,falling off of the solder joint,chip module damage and insufficient initiation energy after deformation.The lack of impact resistance is the primary cause of misfire of electronic detonators.Combined with the underwater impact resistance test and the impact load test in the adjacent blasthole on site,the formulas of the impact failure probability of the electronic detonator under different stress‒strength distribution curves are deduced.The test and evaluation method of the impact resistance of electronic detonators based on stress‒strength interference theory is proposed.Furthermore,the impact failure model of electronic detonators considering the strength degradation effect under repeated random loads is established.On this basis,the failure mechanism of electronic detonators under different application environments,such as open-pit blasting and underground blasting,is revealed,which provides scientific theory and methods for the reliability analysis,design and type selection of electronic detonators in rock drilling and blasting.
文摘The present technical paper outlines the details of the controlled blasting techniques used to optimize blasting pattern for excavation of hard rock near the Bhira Earthen Dam in Maharashtra,India.In this connection,a series of experimental blasts were conducted by adjusting various blast design parameters at project site.The safe charge weight per delay was kept between 0.125 and 0.375 kg.The outcomes of these experimental blasts were analyzed to recommend optimized blasting patterns and methods for the overall excavation process during actual blasting operations.Blast design parameters,including the maximum quantity of explosive per delay,hole depth,burden and spacing between holes were optimized by using a site-specific attenuation equation,taking into account the proximity of the dam and tunnel from the blasting area.Peak particle velocity(PPV)level of 10 mm/s and 50 mm/s respectively were adopted as the safe vibration level for ensuring safety of the Bhira Earthen Dam and the nearby tunnel from the adverse effects of blast vibrations by analyzing the dominant frequency of ground vibrations observed and also by reviewing various international standards.Frequency of the ground vibrations observed on the dam and tunnel from majority of the blasts was found to be more than 10 Hz and 50 Hz respectively.During the entire period of blasting,the blast vibrations were recorded to be far lower than the safe vibration level set for these structures.Maximum Vibration level of about 0.8 mm/s and 35 mm/s were observed on dam and tunnel respectively which are far lower than the safe vibration level adopted for these structures.Hence,the entire excavation work was completed successfully and safely,without endangering the safety of dam or tunnel.

文摘Blast furnace gas(BFG)is an important by-product energy for the iron and steel industry and has been widely used for heating or electricity generation.However,the undesirable contaminants in BFG(especially H_(2)S)generate harmful environmental emissions.The desulfurization of BFG is urgent for integrated steel plants due to the stringent ultra-low emission standards.Compared with other desulfurization materials,zeolite-based adsorbents represent a viable option with low costs and long service life.In this study,an ammonia-induced CuO modified 13X adsorbent(NH_(3)–CuO/13X)was prepared for H_(2)S removal from simulated BFG at low temperature.The XRD,H_(2)-TPR and TEM analysis proved that smaller CuO particles were formed and the dispersion of Cu on the surface of 13X zeolite was improved via the induction of ammonia.Evaluation on H_(2)S adsorption performance of the adsorbent was carried out using simulated BFG,and the results showed that NH_(3)–CuO/13X-3 has better breakthrough sulfur capacity,which was more than twice the sulfur capacity of CuO/13X.It is proposed that the enhanced desulfurization performance of NH_(3)–CuO/13X is attributed to an abundant pore of 13X,and combined action of 13X and CuO.This work provided an effective way to improve the sulfur capacity of zeolite-based adsorbents via impregnation method by ammonia induction.

文摘Accurate and efficient prediction of the distribution of surface loads on buildings subjected to explosive effects is crucial for rapidly calculating structural dynamic responses,establishing effective protective measures,and designing civil defense engineering solutions.Current state-of-the-art methods face several issues:Experimental research is difficult and costly to implement,theoretical research is limited to simple geometries and lacks precision,and direct simulations require substantial computational resources.To address these challenges,this paper presents a data-driven method for predicting blast loads on building surfaces.This approach increases both the accuracy and computational efficiency of load predictions when the geometry of the building changes while the explosive yield remains constant,significantly improving its applicability in complex scenarios.This study introduces an innovative encoder-decoder graph neural network model named BlastGraphNet,which uses a message-passing mechanism to predict the overpressure and impulse load distributions on buildings with conventional and complex geometries during explosive events.The model also facilitates related downstream applications,such as damage mode identification and rapid assessment of virtual city explosions.The calculation results indicate that the prediction error of the model for conventional building tests is less than 2%,and its inference speed is 3-4 orders of magnitude faster than that of state-of-the-art numerical methods.In extreme test cases involving buildings with complex geometries and building clusters,the method achieved high accuracy and excellent generalizability.The strong adaptability and generalizability of BlastGraphNet confirm that this novel method enables precise real-time prediction of blast loads and provides a new paradigm for damage assessment in protective engineering.

文摘Leachate sludge,a byproduct of municipal solid waste leachate treated through biochemical processes,is characterized by high water content(761.1%)and significant organic matter content(71.2%).Cement that is commonly used for solidifying leachate sludge has shown limited effectiveness.To address this issue,an alkali-activated ground-granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBS)geopolymer blended with polypropylene fibers was developed to solidify leachate sludge.Moreover,unconfined compressive strength(UCS),immersion,as well as X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),and scanning electron microscope(SEM)tests were conducted to investigate the solidification effect and mechanism of the GGBS-based geopolymer and fibers on leachate sludge.The results showed that:the 28-d UCS of the solidified sludge with 20%and 30%GGBS is 0.35 MPa and 1.85 MPa,and decreases to 0.18 MPa and 1.13 MPa,respectively,after soaked in water for 28 d.Notably,the UCS of the solidified sludge with 30%GGBS satisfied the strength requirement of roadbed materials.Polypropylene fibers significantly enhanced the strength,ductility and water stability of the solidified sludge,with an optimal fiber content of 0.3%.Alkali-activated GGBS geopolymer generated three-dimensional,cross-linked geopolymeric gels within the solidified sludge,cementing sludge particles and filling intergranular pores to form a stable cementitious structure,thereby achieving effective solidification.Furthermore,incorporating polypropylene fibers improved the bonding and anchoring effect between fiber and solidified sludge,constrained lateral deformation of the solidified sludge,restricted crack propagation,and enhanced engineering performance of the solidified leachate sludge.

文摘The afterburning of TNT and structural constraints in confined spaces significantly amplify the blast load,leading to severe structural damage. This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the enhanced dynamic response of reinforced concrete blast doors with four-sided restraints in confined space. Explosion tests with TNT charges ranging from 0.15 kg to 0.4 kg were conducted in a confined space,capturing overpressure loads and the dynamic response of the blast door. An internal explosion model incorporating the afterburning effect was developed using LS-DYNA software and validated against experimental data. The results reveal that the TNT afterburning effect amplifies both the initial peak overpressure and the quasi-static overpressure, resulting in increased deformation of the blast door.Within the 0.15-0.4 kg charge range, the initial overpressure peak and quasi-static overpressure increased by an average of 1.79 times and 2.21 times, respectively. Additionally, the afterburning effect enhanced the blast door's deflection by 177%. Compared to open-space scenarios, the cumulative deflection of the blast door due to repeated shock wave impacts is significantly greater in confined spaces. Furthermore, the quasi-static pressure arising from the structural constraints sustains the blast door's deflection at a high level.

文摘To address the problems of low accuracy by the CONWEP model and poor efficiency by the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian(CEL)method in predicting close-range air blast loads of cylindrical charges,a neural network-based simulation(NNS)method with higher accuracy and better efficiency was proposed.The NNS method consisted of three main steps.First,the parameters of blast loads,including the peak pressures and impulses of cylindrical charges with different aspect ratios(L/D)at different stand-off distances and incident angles were obtained by two-dimensional numerical simulations.Subsequently,incident shape factors of cylindrical charges with arbitrary aspect ratios were predicted by a neural network.Finally,reflected shape factors were derived and implemented into the subroutine of the ABAQUS code to modify the CONWEP model,including modifications of impulse and overpressure.The reliability of the proposed NNS method was verified by related experimental results.Remarkable accuracy improvement was acquired by the proposed NNS method compared with the unmodified CONWEP model.Moreover,huge efficiency superiority was obtained by the proposed NNS method compared with the CEL method.The proposed NNS method showed good accuracy when the scaled distance was greater than 0.2 m/kg^(1/3).It should be noted that there is no need to generate a new dataset again since the blast loads satisfy the similarity law,and the proposed NNS method can be directly used to simulate the blast loads generated by different cylindrical charges.The proposed NNS method with high efficiency and accuracy can be used as an effective method to analyze the dynamic response of structures under blast loads,and it has significant application prospects in designing protective structures.
