Frequency spectrum and energy refinement characteristics of blasting vibration signals in raw water pipeline tunnel excavation

The analysis of time-frequency variation and energy refinement characteristics of blasting vibration signals has contributed to understanding the propagation law of blasting vibration wave and reducing the possible losses. Combined with the measured data of tunnel blasting excavation and based on the newly constructed wavelet function, the spectrum distribution and energy refinement characteristics of tunnel blasting vibration signals are deeply explored and studied. The results demonstrated that compared to the Fourier spectrum, the innovative method of scale energy spectrum can not only acquire the dominant frequency of the blasting vibration signals, but also the obtained spectrum curve is smoother and can clearly reflect the change trend of the signal spectrum. The newly constructed biorthogonal wavelet has the characteristics of high vanishing moment, high regularity and matching with the waveform variation of the measured blasting vibration signals, and can describe the subtle variation characteristics of blasting vibration signal frequency. The continuous wavelet transform energy spectrum can reflect the three-dimensional energy distribution of blasting vibration signal in the time-scale domain, and the occurrence time of frequency, the frequency duration interval and time range of blasting vibration signal can also be acquired. Wavelet packet algorithm can precisely calculate the energy distribution of each frequency component in the signal, the tunnel blasting vibration signals (YBJ1, YBJ2) generated near the power tower presents low frequency, while the signals (YBF3,YBF4) far away from the power tower presents relatively high frequency. Measures should be taken to control the vibration and resonance of power tower caused by tunnel blasting. This research is of great significance for recognizing the propagation law of vibration waves, reducing the impact of blasting on surrounding buildings, and ensuring the safety of tunnel construction and surrounding buildings.
