Mechanism and Application of Blasting Technology Using Phase-Difference Vibration Mitigation on Adjacent Railway Tunnel

The blasting vibration velocity is a widely used controlling index for the safety assessment of tunnel structures. How to reduce the impact of blasting vibration on the operation of adjacent railway tunnels is worth studying. In this paper, the initial phase-difference of blasting using phase-difference shock absorption is derived from the propagation theory of the blasting stress wave. When the initial phase-difference is Δφi = ±(2n + 1)π (n = 1, 2, 3, …), the peak particle velocity (PPV) in the tunnel structure is decreased to the minimum. On the basis of blasting theory using phase-difference shock absorption, the blasting parameters were designed for the No. 2 drainage tunnel excavated which adjacent a railway tunnel from Guiyang to Changsha, and it carried out 4 times blasting tests. It was found that the PPV of the railway tunnel structure in X, Y, and Z directions reduced by 64.6%, 66.25%, and 81.26%, respectively, which compared with the conventional blasting with the same total quality. Meanwhile, the amount of overbreak and underbreak can be controlled within 5%. The results show that the effect of blasting technology using phase-difference vibration mitigation is obvious, which is able to match with the design requirements for the tunnel excavation contour. The blasting technology using phase-difference vibration mitigation can be achieved via controlling the blasting time interval accurately. Moreover, it is beneficial for enriching and developing the blasting vibration control technology.
