Research on the Dynamic Response Patterns of Layered Slopes Considering Non-Homogeneity Under Blast-Induced Vibration Effects
Source abstract
Abstract
To investigate the dynamic wave propagation characteristics and dynamic response of heterogeneous layered slopes under a blasting vibration, a modeling method considering the slope’s layered dip angle and heterogeneity was proposed. Different dip jointed slope models were established using the Weibull random distribution function introduced to realize the stochastic distribution of rock mechanics parameters, representing heterogeneity. Taking the background project of the Sijiaying Yanshan Open-Pit Iron Mine as an example, through numerical simulation, the effects of different joint dip angles and rock hardness on the slope’s dynamic response were analyzed in detail. The sensitivity of the elastic modulus, cohesion, and friction angle to the slope dynamic response was also investigated. A comparative analysis of the amplification effects between a jointed slope and heterogeneous slope was conducted. Finally, the dynamic stability of the jointed slope and heterogeneous slope under a blasting load was analyzed. The results indicate that the Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) of jointed slopes with dip angles of 45° and 60° is generally higher than that of slopes with a 0° dip angle and without joints. The smaller the rock mass heterogeneity, the smaller the PGA at the measuring points, and the less sensitive the PGA is to variations in the three quantities. Under the same physical and mechanical parameters of the rock, the amplification factor of jointed slopes is generally greater than that of heterogeneous slopes. Under the blasting load, the overall dynamic time-series safety factors of both slopes decrease first and then increase, with the safety factor reaching its lowest value at the location of the strongest blasting vibration wave. This study can provide guidance for the blasting design and safety protection of layered dip slopes and serve as a reference for the analysis of blasting impact laws in similar mines.
