Application of the Blast Fragmentation Models in a Sandstone Quarry (Room Concorde A)

02 Feb 16

9:00 AM - 9:30 AM

Tracks: FRAGBLAST: Modeling and Image Analysis

Speaker(s): Ozge Akyildiz, doctoral student at ITU, Mining Engineering Department

In this research, image analysis software was used to determine size distribution of blast muck pile in a sandstone quarry. Also, blast fragmentation models were applied to predict size distribution of the blasted material. The results of the fragmentation models were compared to the results of image analysis.
