ANALYSIS OF FACTORS INFLUENCING VIBRATION REDUCTION AND DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF DAMPING HOLES IN ADJACENT TUNNEL BLASTING

Analysis of factors influencing vibration reduction and design optimization of damping holes in adjacent tunnel blasting

Drilling and blasting is still the most widely used method for tunnel excavation in hard rocks.However, this method causes damage to adjacent buildings and structures mainly because of tunnel blast-induced vibrations.Currently, no specific guidelines are available for optimizing the design of damping holes during controlled blasting.Therefore, this

Accuracy Verification of Surface Models of Architectural Objects from the iPad LiDAR in the Context of Photogrammetry Methods

The creation of accurate three-dimensional models has been radically simplified in recent years by developing photogrammetric methods.However, the photogrammetric procedure requires complex data processing and does not provide an immediate 3D model, so its use during field (in situ) Travel Essential surveys is infeasible.This paper presents the map
