An evaluation of numerical approaches for S-wave component simulation in rock blasting

The shear wave (S-wave) component of the total blast vibration always plays an important role in damage to rock or adjacent structures. Numerical approach has been considered as an economical and effective tool in predicting blast vibration. However, S-wave has not yet attracted enough attention in...
