Application of PSO to develop a powerful equation for prediction of flyrock due to blasting

Drilling and blasting is a widely-used method for rock fragmentation in open-pit mines, tunneling and civil projects. Flyrock, as one of the most dangerous effects induced by blasting, can cause substantial damage to structures and injury to human. Therefore, the ability to make proper predictions o...
