“…Furthermore, another very important factor for wall strength preservation is to understand how vibrations and consequently damage are attenuated with distance. Several authors, such as Devine et al (1966), Blair (1999, Hizen (1998), Silva-Castro (2012), McKenzie (2012), andMcKenzie (2013) have studied the behavior of the shock wave generated by the one hole charged with explosive, the seed wave, determining its characteristics (length, velocity, amplitude, frequency) and understanding the relationship between the generation and attenuation of induced vibrations.…”
