Experimental Study on Bubble Curtain Technology Applied in Underwater Blasting Damping

摘要

With the further development of urban construction, engineering blasting has had a wide range of applications. However, its application environment has become more and more complex relatively. Underwater blasting, one of the applications of engineering blasting, has been increasingly used in construction of subsea tunnel and immersed tube in recent years though it has a complex influence on surroundings in operation. For the study of shock wave absorption technology of underwater blasting, this paper analyses the effectiveness of bubble curtain shielding technology used in the underwater explosion by field experiment. The test result shows that intensity of underwater shock wave approximately reduced by 80% after passing through the bubble curtain, which indicates that the bubble curtain can effectively reduce the shock wave pressure in water; vibration caused by shock wave in water approximately reduced by 20% after passing through the bubble curtain, which reflects propagation law of shock wave has changed due to the effect of the curtain.
