There is considerable scope for improving the outcome of any
blasting operation through basic understanding and application of
the principles of blasting science and technology. The main
objective of Performance of Explosives and New Developments is to
sensitize the practitioner to critically examine the various
empirical approaches in blasting which may have been in use for a
long time, but lack any sound material basis. On the other hand,
where the empirical approaches have proven of value, significant
additional improvement can be achieved through better understanding
of the underlying process. None of the components involved in a
blasting operation should be treated in isolation, as they are all
interlinked. Fragmentation of rock by blasting represents the first
stage in the size reduction process which is essential to
extraction of valuable minerals and metals. Therefore,
understanding the performance of the explosive and initiators under
actual field conditions, and critical assessment of the blast
results afterwards are central to effective blast design, improved
productivity, and novel applications. Performance of Explosives and
New Developments presents the state of the art on explosive energy,
its utilization in blasting, and some new developments and
innovative applications, and is aimed at academics and
practitioners in the field.
