Abstract
Blast heave modeling and prediction utilizing the new discrete element model, GEM, that treats rock as elements with alternating arcs and line. Explosive loading of GEM elements is accomplished by utilizing the Noble-Abel equation of state to track the gas pressure from detonation through expansion to atmospheric pressure.
