Numerical modeling of blasting
Challenges
- A good material model for the mountain
- Simulaton of the mountain's reaction to high pressure and subsequent damage
- Material models for explosive
- High resolution model
Evaluation of numerical codes and methods
- LS-DYNA code
- Euler and Lagrange element formulation
- A method for interpreting the fragmentation based on the estimated damage
- Various constitutive models such as RHT model
