Abstract: | Precision blasting, regarded as the symbol of a new stage of development in engineering blasting, is different from the traditional controlled blasting. Its definition, connotation, technology system and current situation of application and development were introduced briefly. With regard to the development of precision blasting in the future, the following aspects should be studied in depth: (1) In order to provide the theoretical basis for explosive energy release and quantitative blasting design, research on the multidisciplinary basic theory should be conducted; (2) Taking the digitalization research and its application in blasting objects as the starting point, syncretic studies of precision blasting and information technology should be conducted; (3) Numerical simulation being an important method for the optimization of engineering blasting schemes and the forecast of blasting adverse effect, numerical simulation of precision blasting should be studied in depth; (4) The modernization and standardization in the precision blasting construction should be enhanced. |
