Abstract
Blasting is widely applied in deep rock excavation. The effect of in-situ stresses on the fracturing of rock due to blasting was investigated. A theoretical model was used to explain the effect mechanism of in-situ stresses on crack propagation due to blasting. Four cases with different in-situ stress conditions were numerically investigated. The numerical results indicate that the crack propagation is governed by the blast load in the vicinity of the blasthole while the high in-situ stresses can influence the crack propagation in the far-field. The crack propagation trends towards the direction in which the high initial pressure is applied.
