Numerical modelling for blast-induced fragmentation in sublevel caving mines
HighlightsAn approach is presented to generate fragments based on damage description.A method is presented to identify fragments and calculate the fragment size in 2D.The effect of delay time and primer position on blast performance is discussed.
AbstractThe flow behavior of the ore and waste significantly affect the dilution in sublevel caving (SLC) mines. Drill and blast issues are identified as having a substantial impact upon SLC material flow. In the paper, blast-induced fragmentation in SLC was numerically investigated using the LS-DYNA code. A method was presented to evaluate fragmentation based on the damage description and a fragment identification routine implemented in the LS-PREPOST (a pre- and post-processing tool of LS-DYNA). The effects of the delay time and the primer position on fragmentation were investigated. The results indicated that a long delay time gives a finer fragmentation for the cases discussed in the paper. The results also showed that the middle primer and the top primer in SLC can give a fine fragmentation. The limitations of numerical modelling were also discussed.
