Abstract
A discrete element computer program named DMC_BLAST (Distinct Motion Code) has been under development since 1987 for modeling rock blasting (Preece & Taylor, 1989). This program employs explicit time integration and uses spherical or cylindrical elements that are represented as circles in 2-D. DMC_BLAST calculations compare favorably with data from actual bench blasts (Preece et al, 1993).
