Dynamic Mechanics Experiment Practice and Analysis Methods of Rock Materials in Blasting Engineering Teaching
Blasting Engineering is an essential core course for civil engineering and mining majors. To improve the students' understanding on dynamic mechanical response and damage mechanism of rock materials, the experimental teaching contents of explosion and impact dynamics of rock materials were set up in a training plan to achieve the teaching goal of the course of Blasting Engineering. In view of students' lack of theoretical knowledge and experimental basis of impact dynamics in blasting engineering, the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) experiment technology and two-dimensional plate blasting (TDPB) experiment technology were applied to the practical teaching of Blasting Engineering. Firstly, the experimental system compositions and calculation principles of SHPB and TDPB were introduced. Secondly, the course contents of SHPB impact compression experiment and TDPB central blasting experiment of rock materials were designed. Thirdly, the dynamic mechanical behavior and energy evolution characteristics of sandstone material under the SHPB experiment and the strain wave evolution and dynamic damage and fracture behavior mechanism of sandstone-like material under the TDPB experiment were analyzed. Finally, the students' in-depth discussion on the critical problems of rock impact dynamics was guided. The innovative combination of SEM testing technology and impact dynamics experimental technology revealed the damage mechanism of rock materials under SHPB and TDPB experiments to students from the micro-level, which gave the students a clear understanding of meso-damage and macro-failure. The effect of teaching practice shows that the student's theoretical and practical ability is exercised by combining the experimental course of SHPB and TDPB with the theoretical course of Blasting Engineering, which leads to the improvement of students' scientific research ability and the sense of teamwork, and the fulfillment of the teaching goals.
