This process involvesmultiple blast loadings, static stress unloadings, and stress redistributions. In this study, the dynamicstresses of the surrounding rocks during development blasting, considering multiple blasting-unloadingstages with exponential paths and triangular paths (linear simplified paths of exponential paths), aresolved based on the dynamic theory and the Fourier transform method. Then, a corresponding discreteelement model is established using particle flow code (PFC). The multiple-stage dynamic stress andfracture distribution under different in situ stress levels and lateral coefficients are investigated. Theoreticalresults indicate that the peak compressive stresses in the surrounding rocks induced by bothtriangular and exponential paths are equal, while the triangular path generates greater additional dynamictensile stresses, particularly in the circumferential direction, compared to the exponential path.Numerical results show that the exponential path causes less dynamic circumferential tensile damageand forms fewer radial fractures than the triangular path in the first few blast stages;conversely, itexacerbates the damage and instability in the final blasting-unloading stage and forms more circumferentialfractures. Furthermore, the in situ stress determines which of the two opposite effects isdominant. Therefore, when using overly simplified triangular paths to evaluate the stability of surroundingrocks, potential overestimation or underestimation caused by different failure mechanismsshould be considered. Specifically, under high horizontal and vertical stresses, the static stress redistributionwith layer-by-layer blasting suppresses dynamic circumferential tensile and radial compressivedamage. The damage evolution of surrounding rocks in multi-stage blasting under different in situstresses is summarized and classified according to the damage mechanism and characteristics, which canguide blasting and support design.展开更多

文摘Drilling and blasting,characterized by their efficiency,ubiquity,and cost-effectiveness,have emerged as predominant techniques in rock excavation;however,they are accompanied by enormous destructive power.Accurately controlling the blasting energy and achieving the directional fracture of a rock mass have become common problems in the field.A two-dimensional blasting(2D blasting)technique was proposed that utilizes the characteristic that the tensile strength of a rock mass is significantly lower than its compressive strength.After blasting,only a 2D crack surface is generated along the predetermined direction,eliminating the damage to the reserved rock mass caused by conventional blasting.However,the interior of a natural rock mass is a"black box",and the process of crack propagation is difficult to capture,resulting in an unclear 2D blasting mechanism.To this end,a single-hole polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA)test piece was used to conduct a 2D blasting experiment with the help of a high-speed camera to capture the dynamic crack propagation process and the digital image correlation(DIC)method to analyze the evolution law of surface strain on the test piece.On this basis,a three-dimensional(3D)finite element model was established based on the progressive failure theory to simulate the stress,strain,damage,and displacement evolution process of the model under 2D blasting.The simulation results were consistent with the experimental results.The research results reveal the 2D blasting mechanism and provide theoretical support for the application of 2D blasting technology in the field of rock excavation.

文摘Magnaporthe oryzae,the causal agent of rice blast,induces significant upregulation of OsPR10b,a pathogenesis-related(PR)pollen allergen(BetV-1)family gene.To investigate its role in immunity,we generated OsPR10b knockout mutants in the Zhonghua 11(ZH11)background.OsPR10b was predominantly expressed in rice calli and strongly induced by M.oryzae infection.Knockout mutants(ospr10b-1 and ospr10b-2)exhibited heightened susceptibility to both M.oryzae and Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae(Xoo),demonstrating that OsPR10b positively regulates resistance to blast and bacterial blight.Our findings elucidate OsPR10b’s role in rice immunity and provide genetic resources for disease-resistant breeding.
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 muzzle blast overpressure induces disturbances in the flow field inside the crew compartment(FFICC)of a truck-mounted howitzer during the artillery firing.This overpressure is the primary factor preventing personnel from firing artillery within the cab.To investigate the overpressure characteristics of the FFICC,a foreign trade equipment model was used as the research object,and a numerical model was established to analyze the propagation of muzzle blast from the muzzle to the interior of the crew compartment under extreme firing condition.For comparative verification,the muzzle blast experiment included overpressure data from both the flow field outside the crew compartment(FFOCC)and the FFICC,as well as the acceleration data of the crew compartment structure(Str-CC).The research findings demonstrate that the overpressure-time curves of the FFICC exhibit multi-peak characteristics,while the pressure wave shows no significant discontinuity.The enclosed nature of the cab hinders the dissipation of pressure wave energy within the FFICC,leading to sustained high-amplitude overpressure.The frameskin structure helps attenuate the impact of muzzle blast on the FFICC.Conversely,local high overpressure caused by the convex or concave features of the cab's exterior significantly amplifies the overpressure amplitude within the FFICC.

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This study primarily investigates the rock fracture mechanism of bottom cushion layer blasting and explores the effects of the bottom cushion layer on rock fragmentation.It involves analyses of the evolution patterns of blasting stress,characteristics of crack distribution,and rock fracture features in the specimens.First,blasting model experiments were carried out using the dynamic caustics principle to investigate the influence of bottom cushion layers and initiation methods on the integrity of the bottom rock mass.The experimental results indicate that the combined use of bottom cushion layers and inverse initiation effectively protects the integrity of the bottom rock mass.Subsequently,the process of stress wave propagation and dynamic crack propagation in rocks was simulated using the continuum-discontinuum element method(CDEM)and the Landau explosion source model,with varying thicknesses of bottom cushion layers.The numerical simulation results indicate that with increasing cushion thickness,the absorption of energy generated by the explosion becomes more pronounced,resulting in fewer cracks in the bottom rock mass.This illustrates the positive role of the cushion layer in protecting the integrity of the bottom rock mass.

文摘Asian rice comprises two major subspecies:Xian(X)and Geng(G),and the diverged resistance genes(R)have provided a foundation for breeding improved cultivars to control rice blast disease.After conducting two-phase allele mining using six updated FNP marker systems,the functional haplotypes at Pit,Pib,and Pi63 strictly diverged into the X-populations and were defined as X-R loci,while those at Pi54,Pi37,and Pi36 into the G-populations as G-R loci.The genic diversity at the three X-R loci(16 alleles)was twofold higher than that at the three G-R loci(8 alleles),and the allelic diversity in the Southern region(21 alleles)was nearly double that in the Northeastern region(11 alleles).Both observations reflect a significant difference in genetic diversity between X-and G-populations,and indicate that the effective R-genes mainly originated from X-subspecies.Based on the allelic structures characterized by a set of 10 parameters,8 and 16 alleles were respectively recognized as favorable and promising ones for the regional breeding programs.The genotypic structures of the two regional populations were almost different,indicating that the diverged alleles have been further assembled into two series of regional genotypes through long-term breeding programs,despite the presence of one-third of region-common alleles.The genotypic diversity in the Southern region(55 genotypes)was nearly twice as high as that in the Northeastern region(28),which perfectly reflects the aforementioned differences in both genic and allelic diversities.After analyzing the genotypic structures using a set of 13 parameters,4 and 23 genotypes,respectively,can be recommended as the favorable and promising ones for the regional breeding programs.The case study serves as a concrete sample of how to identify the favorable and promising alleles and genotypes,and beneficial parents based their comprehensive population structures for gene-designed breeding.

文摘Pursuing green,low-carbon ironmaking technology primarily aims to reduce fuel ratios,especially coke ratios.Simultaneously,the reduction in coke ratios causes the coke layer in the blast furnace(BF)to become thinner,deteriorating the gas and liquid permeability of the burden column.This exacerbates coke degradation,significantly impacting the smelting process and increasing the demand for high-quality coke.To investigate the existence state of coke in the hearth,a 2500 m3 BF in China was taken as the research object,and three sets of samples at different heights of the hearth were obtained during planned outage.The results indicate that coke undergoes a significant degradation upon reaching the hearth.The proportion of coke particles smaller than 50 mm ranges from 81.22%to 89.50%.The proportion of coke particles larger than 20 mm decreases as the distance from the centerline of the tuyere increases,while the proportion of particles smaller than 10 mm increases with this distance.Additionally,the closer the bottom of the furnace is,the smaller the coke particle size becomes.The composition of slag filling the coke pores is similar to that of the final slag in the blast furnace,and the graphitization of coke is comparable to that of the final slag.The graphitization of coke starts from the surface of coke and leads to the formation of coke fines,and the graphitization degree of−74μm coke fines is the highest.The temperature has an effect on the reaction rate of coke solution loss,and the higher the temperature is,the faster the reaction rate is.

文摘The dripping zone in a blast furnace plays a crucial role in connecting the cohesive zone with the hearth,and its stability significantly impacts low-carbon smelting processes.Based on a detailed anatomical study of a 2200-m3 blast furnace in China,it involves core sampling of the furnace dripping zone and uses scanning electron microscopy to investigate the micro-morphology of potassium(K)and sulfur(S)within this region.The formation process of kalsilite(KAlSiO4)and CaS inside the furnace is elucidated.The results show that when potassium vapor rises to the upper area of the dripping zone,some of it adsorbs onto the coke pore walls and reacts with the dripping slag and coke ash to form kalsilite.The formation pathways of CaS differ between upper and lower areas of the dripping zone.It forms mainly from the reaction of slag with SO2 in the gas flow and from the slag–coke interface reaction.The CaS generated from the slag–coke interface reaction is the major source of CaS in the dripping zone.Based on the formation mechanisms of kalsilite and CaS in the dripping zone,it is possible to regulate their formation by adjusting the temperature,slag phase composition,and the content of harmful elements in the raw materials.It provides theoretical insights into the behavior of harmful elements in the blast furnace,offering guidance for steel enterprises to ensure the stable operation of the dripping zone,reduce fuel consumption,and achieve greener production.

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.
