Ground Vibration and Air Overpressure Prediction Caused by Blasting Operations in a Gneiss Quarry Using a Gene Expression Programming Approach

Abstract Introduction Rock blasting is a fundamental operation in mining and civil engineering, but it generates ground vibrations and air overpressure that can affect nearby structures and communities. Among these effects, peak particle velocity (PPV) and air overpressure (AOp)...
