Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to specify calculations of a rock mass fracture zone in the explosion of series of blasthole charges with a complex structure under mathematical modelling of their interaction if parts of the blasting agent are spaced along the well length by means of an inert material. The parts are blasted sequentially. Therefore, dynamic load of exploded rock mass has been analyzed depending upon a blasting order of the charges and their parts. Originality is to define more exactly the regularities of interaction between explosive energy of blasthole charges with the specific design and rock mass enclosing them. The developed methods help identify usability of the explosives, designed by the authors, and simplify calculations of drilling-and-blasting description. It has been proved that selection of charge mass with different ratios of their parts in the sequential wells, and variation in lag intervals between the explosions make it possible to control a process of rock mass loading depending upon the specific mining and geological conditions if features of a force field are known. The findings expand methodological basis as for design of open pits while favouring implementation of explosive charges which structure is proposed by the authors.
